n.b. this is exactly how brexit started 👀 
maybe i wont have to expatriate after all. i can just sit tight and let cali do it for me🤞

i still laugh at my memories of brexit. 🇬🇧
watching it unfold was pure comedy hhh
🪡 i guess

i was in the uk then as a foreign student. i remember watching david cameron dangle the threat of secession to try to strongarm the EU. i truly blv that was his intent, but the far right of his party cto'd the idea...

you could see the look on camerons face every time he had to face the camera. it was the look of absolute impotence as he lost control of the narrative. the best of it all was that when it was clear he had lost, he simply said peace and bounced into obscurity. hhhhh

boris and nigel played the british media like the kitsch snake flute that it is and swayed the genpop. and best tactic was putting cheesy lies on BUSES!! hhh gotta love guerilla marketing

the whole time i was like, 'they can't be falling for this, right?' but i watched an mature civilization choose wild change in the face of modern global political economy. it was like watching a middle aged man go thru a mid life-crisis. they got drunk on pride and left their wife. they thought they could still bag hoes, and only realized what brexit looked like when they woke up next to it, hungover af

obv there are benefits to sovereignty in general and from the EU specifically, but in hindsight best we can say is that the timing was shit 🤷🏾

there are many parallels you could draw here. the point i guess is that its amazing how a small crack can become a canyon. and how fast it can happen

ill say that i dont blv this will obtain lol. i would prob bet against on polymarket, and prob vote no in a ponder thing (or would i? hh) but i didnt think it was gonna go thru then either. these are strange times. 

i dunno who or if there is an analogous faction to the brit right to champion the idea in this situation. hope the american version is as good tho 🍿
