What has my anonymity to do with anything? You are just as anonymous as I am here. 

I am not sure who defecates on whom, or what, here - you will need to have a look at how at how a proper sentence is formulated. Judging by your increasingly agitated and inane responses, I assume I am hitting a soft spot there. Regretting not finishing school yet?

If my points ARE worthless, engage with them. Otherwise, stand in silence or keep hurling offensive remarks at people whose argumentative premise you fail to even comprehend at its most basic level. Serves me fine either way. You are barely important to my conscience.

Is this another one of your alt, SauveSocialist ? The fact that you have to question my education means that you have to keep talking trash behind your screen to pony up the internet strongman persona, haha ... 

If you're going to go in rambo in this topic asking some stranger over the internet about their qualifications then what the fuck are yours ? 

And your points are lame crap in itself cause the UK wants more control over it's own borders so deal with it and the fact that you have the audacity your push your bumbling nonsense in here so much means that you are getting sensitive ...  

I do not know who that person is, but it is comforting to know that you still have no idea what you are talking about.

I never intended to make this into a conversation of qualifications, by any means. If you insist, I am a final-year doctoral student of political theory at a University in the United Kingdom. I teach global politics, global security, and democratic theory (three modules) to first and second-year undergraduates at a Russel Group University. In the course of the past five years, I have taught to over 600 individual students, from across the UK, Europe, and the rest of the world. I have spent the last 7 years researching critical global politics and political philosophy, from Aristotle and Plato to Schmitt, Derrida, Foucault and contemporary post-structuralists. I am well versed in all forms of political theory, from the classics to medieval theorists (such as Hobbes and Machiavelli, to the enlightenment period (Rousseau, Tocqueville), American political philosophy (Wilson, Madison, Hamilton), liberalism, nationalism (Ozkirimli, Armstrong, Smith, Gellner), Marxism, structuralism, post-Marxism, anarchism, and post-structuralism.

Personally, the outcomes of BREXIT are of little importance to me -- I will probably not be affected as much as others who are in more perilous and precarious situations, such as low-wage manual labour, etc. As a human being, I am of course concerned that Britain is fast losing its touch with reality and core democratic principles of accountability and human rights. 

You go ahead now, give me your qualifications since this is so important to you and to this conversation (to which you have still not responded -- just branding my position as 'lame crap' is a cop-out, and not much more).

Don't try to argue with that guy. It's not worth it.

16+ million fooled by misinformation are still only "some". The ones to blame are clearly the ones not taking it seriously enough and staying at home instead, because they didn't believe such a thing could happen. Including the numbers of protest voters of course, who regretted their vote right afterwards. You know how it went.

Very well said. Or, in the words of Plato, "the price of apathy towards public affairs is to be ruled by evil men". Or, as Franklin said in a similar manner: "a nation of well-informed men cannot be enslaved. It is in the region of ignorance that tyranny begins". It is sad that so many centuries later, it is still apathy and ignorance that undermine the efficacy and quality of society at large.

@bolded: Nationhood as a concept isn't even that old in europe, that basically emerged after the 100 years war when feudalism came to end.

And it's so ironic that so many brits apparently fear immigrants, considering how many out of their former colonies (especially British India) have settled there and brought their culture with them. Cheap eastern European workers have kept farming and factory production alive in the UK when everybody else moved to offices and services. The UK was a country of immigration throughout most of the last century. It's part of the heritage to be multicultural. If you don't like that, you'll have to throw everybody out with colonial heritage - but then the Island would be pretty empty.

Not Germany, but the countries where the immigrants arrive first, like Spain, Italy and especially Greece.

Greece only has a fraction of Britain's size or population, but had more immigrants because they're the first country of the EU for most of the migrants. Add to this their economic crisis, and you'll understand that Greece couldn't handle even more immigrants. Spain and Italy got similar problems, but from migrants out of Africa coming by ships (if they make it, thousands have died over the last years by drowning with those old, overcrowded and overfilled ships sailing to Davy Jones'Locker)

You're a moron. Good job conflating nationalism with racism, especially to someone in a multi racial relationship XD

Well I'm not British, although I'm half European though. You make it seem like those middle eastern places were such fairy tales before the Ameircans went in.  They weren't. It's telling that none of the rich middle eastern countries are even accepting any of these refugees. If they dont have to accept them, why do we?
