Yeah, this is gonna be a wild ride for a time. I'd be even more worried if I were in Europe right now.

I sympathize with the dude, it's a tough day in the UK.
I can't imagine, there is a lot of paperwork to be done but 2 years to leave isn't that long.

My point precisely. From 'our' point of view, the term 'radical Islam' is a tautology.
Mainstream Islam, not ISIS, not Al Qaeda, not Wahhabism, would be considered off-the-spectrum-far-right and radical by any measure if it didn't have the privilege of being a minority religion and thus being above critical inspection.
The notion that people who were indoctrinated by this cancerous ideology from a very young age would just leave it at the door isn't just absurd, it's demonstrably wrong. In that case I don't understand why you react negatively when you're accused of targeting all of them. That's clearly what you're doing. Because you can criticize an ideology or idea without being racist towards those who were indoctrinated by it. The policies that you recommend based on this criticism apply on people, not ideas. Only because we lack the intellectual honesty to make the distinction. That is a sentence devoid of meaning. Intellectual honesty is my favorite internet buzzword for "people that refuse to agree with my smart point of view". It's my favourite buzzword for "I accept evidence, even if it contradicts parts of my (liberal) world view". But whatever, I didn't go into this actually thinking I could penetrate the bubble. You are a fuckwit, there you go ban me I don't want to post on a forum with this degenerate. User was temp banned for this post. He took the first Brexit on the right.
first casualty of the brexit ?

If we're not careful, Brexit may become a meme.

If that were to occur would we replace the word with [redacted] or [meme] in Brexit discussions?

That's just a dumb statement with pretty much no basis in reality. Or do you, by chance, have sources where that happened? Two tier status might still be on the cards which is what most of Britain always wanted. We'll see what France and Germany do.
Not sure if Brits realize, but there's a couple more countries that have a say in this. There won't be a two tier status. Because that actually would be political suicide. There's literally zero chance for that. If the German and French government believes they need to stop the anti EU sentiment dead in its tracks. They could take a harsh line with the UK, even if it hurts their own economy. That leaving the EU will cost the nation that does it. Or they could just try to work it out. I could see it going either way. The EU will undoubtedly take a harsh line with the UK. Again. The UK will be a competitor soon. There's no outcome where it wouldn't hurt the german, french or general EU economy. That's just in the nature of things if one country leaves a single market. There's also nothing really to work out. The UK will lose access to the single market as it stands. It in fact has to, since it doesn't need to obey the regulations for european countries that have access. So clearly, to make up for this, they'll have to pay a price. You stated that germany out of spitefulness, "because they seem like that culture", will try and screw with the UK. Which is simply plain wrong. And no, they can't just "obey the rules and then get access back", since they don't contribute to the EU in general anymore - of which the single market is a benefit. Now, it could happen that the EU "evolves" into just a single market now (i'd like that), slowly. But that's decades down the line, and until then the UK still wouldn't get access without big concessions/simply payments. I don't really understand why people are outraged or blame other countries but their own for that. split pretty evenly Only as long as you don't look at a map and who voted what. I got lambasted in the other thread that the EU member countries would evoke trade wars with UK if they left, but that seems to be the opinion of the posters in this thread - how odd. Tell me how it would be any different in the macro scheme from the UK paying a fee to the EU than paying tariffs (yes, I understand it may have disparate impact on certain industries, but do you have any specific #'s in terms of total outlays). If the EU wants to shoot themselves in the foot over a power-play that's their prerogative, but it seems quite myopic. Simply put, that if the EU wants to be petty it's not going to be good for anyone, so cheering this result on just sounds very spiteful. It seems people only like democracy when democracy is in tacit approval of only the things they want/like. Same people tend to also deride the selfishness and self-interest of others. :p I am enjoying tonight. I don't deny my own little slice of pettiness lol. Again there will be no trade war. They will have to negotiate a new FTA. They will not make negotiations easy but that is something else than a trade war with full blown tariffs. The fee you are talking about I assume is the money getting paid in the EU budget? Every country in the EU has to do that. Anyway interesting times. Never thought they would actually leave. They might not yet. The Scots and Ireland seem to be "not pumped" about the vote. And its not binding. You really are an idiot. User was temp banned for this post.

It probably has to do with the mafia forum being semi-private so it's not the default for the bot to post those bans.

Thank fuck that those three have been banned from the Uk politics thread. Shit posting Brexit supporters from outside the UK. Shame that it took them to post memes as the to break the camel's back, rather than just banning them outright for low quality posts.
