Every time I hear about Brexit I’m reminded how 17 million people directly fucked up my ability to be part of something just to spite themselves. If you don’t want to be part of something then just take yourself and leave, don’t drag everyone else out too.
Because anti-globalism is the most widely held opinion on earth. You can find people supporting it in every country and they use the power of infrastructure built up by countries working together to spread their message. It is like some weird variant on the paradox of tolerance. A nationalist can only recirculate their unoriginal ideas because internationalism existed for so long.
Why is it better to be part of something? I hear people say that all the time like it should be obvious, but the concept repulses me.

A bad peace is better than a good war.
Then why are you commenting by being a part of the largest network on earth?
Practical outcome in the case of the EU?
Probably more but that’s what I can think of right now.
