Britain to leave EU.

My sad reflection on Brexit:

The "black swan" has appeared and the forces of nationalism and darkness are surfacing again...it's fucking depressing that we really haven't learned anything and so easily allow our worst and most base instincts to repeatedly drive us to the Right and the slide into xenophobia and Fascism.

The thing is that it does no good to know this unless you believe that our past depravities and genocides were not just aberrations and to warn of them is not hyperbole and to ignore the signs may be folly, again.

Maybe you need to have been there.
