    A minority of peoples didn’t like it

    So many in the majority were so okay with Brexit that they decided no to bother to go voting. Being indifferent about such a big thing is not a very good image.

      66.63% of France voted in their last election.
      66.59% of Spain.
      63.79% of Italy.
      59.7% of Ireland.

      With the world in the state that it is, people are disenchanted by politics and stuck in algorithmic echo chambers where the highest payer’s voice gets the strongest reach, not the people’s. The populous doesn’t get a clear view of the facts over any vote they’re asked to participate in.

      Adding vitriol to their problems doesn’t make anything better; it won’t make people make better decisions. Inciting division because of “not a very good image” doesn’t inspire people either.

      We’re stronger united, undivided, and supportive of one another. Wasting time blaming each other over the past, distancing ourselves from one another, or rejecting one another, does nothing but play into the hands of the enemies of Europe.

      We should be building Europe up, not tearing it down.
