Slightly triggered for the use of such diagram when imho a simple bar chart would do the trick.

I'd really like to hear a valid argument from those who were too young to vote during the referendum and now want to stay out. I'd also like to ask them if they believe the Scots and Northern-Irish are free to leave the UK if they wanted to. Not that i expect i'll hear something new when i ask them, I just really want to see if there is someone in that group that actually believes the things they'd say.

They probably lack the capacity for that kind of introspection to develop a position. They just repeat what other people tell them and then believe it because there's a sort of logic to it. Testing something for veracity once it's past the coherence test is beyond a lot of people. Lots don't even make it that far. Conservatives have an entirely different system for evaluating things, it starts and ends with what the man says it is.

This will happen for us as well in Canada, we have a bunch of plebs in Alberta wanting to separate. They have no idea or are blind to the perils that will be unleashed.

They are selfish twats that need to be ostracized and some harsh realities befal them in order to quash this foolishness.

How any canadian can look at america and say "yeah that grass looks a lot greener" is beyond me. Meanwhile I'm expecting canada to build a wall to keep us american refugees out.

It's because attention is for sell and nobody talks to each other anymore so it's really easy for billionaires to buy the political opinions they want.
