I voted to Leave and I am deeply committed to the cause of independence but had the UK voted to Remain in the EU I would not have cried. I would have got ready for the next stage in the battle: Eurozone Union in 2025. I knew no Leave voters who would have cried had the Referendum gone the wrong way. So why did Remain voters cry?
Many Remain voters cried or felt like crying after the vote. They would not have cried if their Party had lost a General Election so what was going on? Furthermore, after the vote I heard many stories of Leave voters being bullied by disgruntled Remain voters, especially on Social Media. What has happened?
During the Referendum campaign I spoke to hundreds of Remain supporters. Most had little idea of why they supported Remain except that they believed that getting along with, and cooperating with, fellow Europeans was more important than anything. When it was pointed out that 90% of Leave voters also want to cooperate and get along with other Europeans I was met with looks of disbelief. The Remain voters had in mind some almost spiritual union, like marriage, which is why they used terms like "divorce" for Leaving.
In real life, although we are part of the UK we are not married to people in Birmingham or Hull. We work with them, perhaps make friends and go about normal relations with our fellow citizens. If we go to another country with a work permit we behave the same to our colleagues as we might in the UK. There is no spiritual union. When we leave the EU we will go to France on holiday and behave the same as we do now. When we leave the EU and get a permit to work in Holland we will behave the same to our colleagues as now. In reality being IN or OUT of the EU makes little difference at a personal level.
So where did Remain voters get the idea that there was something "Holy" about being in the EU? Those who favour Remain are largely Floaters, they are people who have the education and wealth to imagine themselves travelling anywhere in the world and working or settling anywhere. Their desire to vote Remain was not really about cooperating and getting along with fellow Europeans, it was about imagined or real opportunities and an imagined future for themselves.
The Floaters have, over the past 30 years, distanced themselves from the less mobile sector of British society. Instead of empathising with their less well endowed fellow citizens they fitted their complaints into a moral structure so that the complaints could be ignored. Their less fortunate fellow citizens became Racists, Chavs and Feckless rather than people struggling to make sense out of an ever more complex, overcrowded and unforgiving world. The Floaters floated up to a "moral highground" where everyone but themselves is morally offensive. This allows them to dismiss their fellow citizens as unworthy of understanding or help. The Media is entirely staffed by Floaters and reinforced this message.
It is clear now why those who voted Remain cried and bullied others. They have devised a moral structure to distance themselves from the rest of humanity. They feel they are holy. To this class the rest of society are morons and chavs and those who support and empathise with ordinary unbelievers, those who fall from the moral highground, deserve to be bullied because they are morally reprehensible. It is shocking that the British, who have recently been famed for pragmatic tolerance and acceptance, should have produced a class of such intolerance and viciousness.
If we look at other instances of people crying about national events the most notable instances are the deaths of successful tyrants like Mao and Stalin and the death of Princess Di. All of these examples are media indoctrination - the ordinary public had never met any of these people nor knew any truth about them. The young are especially prone to indoctrination and lines of Red Guards cried their eyes out after the death of Mao. Another sign of indoctrination is the way that Remain used a strange technique in debate. Rather than analysing the issues they assembled gangs of sympathisers who all shouted a viewpoint. Remain then declared "if these experts all believe in Remain then how can you say any different"? This was naked gang mentality, their "experts" were all Remain experts so had no credibility with the other side of the debate.
The younger Remain supporters are not to blame. The education system in the UK has been politicised over the past 30 years, teachers have equated caring preferentially for your fellow citizens with racism and have used EU materials to extol the virtues of leaving your own country behind to pursue a holy life elsewhere. One of the most important tasks of any future UK government is to encourage schools to teach care for other people rather than revulsion for groups that do not follow prescribed ideologies. Schools must not instil ideology, they must instil kindness at the interpersonal level, they must ensure that their pupils do not emerge with selfish fantasies but put service to others in their locality, real people who they can meet and understand, first.
