what in the world is up with the never ending "woe me" articles and blatant fear mongering from the media? have they lost their collective minds? so the media is clearly on the side of globalists, we GET IT. But are these ridiculous op eds adding any value? NO

the sky isn't falling - even though you'd be orgasmic if it were.

The markets are up today. that must really hurt.

This isn't actually a big deal to anyone but the elites. Everything will carry on after some short term bumps.

The politicians and media are freaking out because they view this as their inferiors giving them the finger, which is exactly what happened.

The same people who didn't believe the brexit would win, are now the ones predicting outcomes. Beware the "experts"

yes i find the herd mentality rather strange.

it seemed to me that the majority of "remain" arguments boil down to: "the experts said leaving would be bad."

and if the experts are medical doctors talking about known medical science, then ok, listen to the experts. But these are economists, and economists' predictions have always been a joke.

Stocks are already going up as expected and some may have made a lot of money over the last few days.

Yhe end of the world hasn't come and the liberal machine is probably very disappointed that the stock market didn't plummet more.

Next hopefully we will have Nexit.

How did the British Empire ever become what it was without the European Union?

Oh come on. The people who are in this forum are hardly the elites, and many of them have gone nuts over this. It's the end of the world. It's the work of the devil. In fact, I'd say the people who have gone nuttiest over this are the uneducated who couldn't give a coherent description of what the EU is or was.

They are hoping they can create a panic, and make the news reports dictate the reality. It's an old trick that works more often than it ought to.

They are parroting what they heard on tv. CNN acted like the UK voted to kill all the first born children.

The elites are mad about this because a United States of Europe was always the end goal of the EU and now it appears that will never happen. Cohen admitted this in the NYT. And as I said, the elites don't appreciate commoners meddling in their business.
