So what does this have to do with the EU again? The EU doesn't get to dictate how many refugees each of the countries has to accept - they are more focused around ensuring mattress manufactures have a fire retardant label on their products...

It also pains me that the Brexit people and others are so quick to turn these refugees away. "Well they don't help us so why the fuck should we take them!". Perhaps maybe because they are fleeing war and have no where else to go? Have we as a society really lost the bare amount of empathy needed to help these people? They are refugees from WAR. Their homes have been over run by an organization that beheads, drowns, and tortures the people who they capture. Where exactly do you want them to go? "Anywhere but I live" is not an acceptable answer.

Bruh if you can't see the racial side to Brexit than you really do have your eyes sewn shut. A huge part of the Brexit movement was to close off the UK's borders to the rest of the EU to prevent "unwanted peoples" from making their way into the UK easily. Most people are using the same old "they took my job!!!" argument that republicans in the U.S. have been using since the end of Reagan's last term.

"But Dyme! It isn't about race! The brexit people could be talking about white people who they don't want allowed into the country!"

Now I will refer you to the following billboard by the Leave campaign.


Very interesting how the leave movement has decided to use a line of (brown) refugees as their prime motivating message to close the UK's border. The similarities to the Leave movement and the xenophobic rhetoric of Donald Trump is almost uncanny.

And who is that charming man in front of the poster? It's none other than Nigel Farage, the leader of UKIP. And well, lets just say UKIP has had more than a few incidents where they have been accused of blatant racism.

Why listen to me though when you can hear it straight from the horses mouth?



I'm not saying the entirety of Brexit has to do with race - of course it doesn't. But if you can't see the racial component to Brexit, than you are either uninformed or willfully ignorant.

The market will re-stable its self once the city boys stop shitting them self's. London was the only area to support the EU, no wonder the markets have shat them self's.

I feel like it would stabilize, as the UK isn't exactly relying on the EU. What about the 350m a week the UK sends the EU? I feel like this would impact countries relying on or supporting the EU more. I don't think the referendum had anything to do with race, although there are always people crying wolf when it comes to racism.

Brexit has NOTHING to do with race. This is not a racial problem, this is an immigrant/refugee problem. Brexit isn't a thing because they're racist towards Africans and Arabs, it's a thing because Britian is fucking scared to shit of having their country torn apart by these barbarians because they see it already happening to Sweden and Germany, and I don't blame them a tiny bit. Also, for the record, there are more races in the migrants than just Arab and African. It seems you're the one with your eyes "sewn shut." I encourage you to watch this video so that you can see what I mean when I say Germany and Sweden are getting fucked by these migrants.



Would you like to know why the billboard uses brown people to portray the refugees? I don't fucking know, maybe it's because the majority of refugees are brown, but there's no way that could be it cause that's racist right!!!!!! By getting pissed off about something like that, I get the feeling you're trying to find the dumbest shit to go against Brexit for because there's literally no other reason to be against it other than your precious "but dats rasist!"

Obviously someone who leads a movement to keep destructive migrants out of their country is going to be accused of racism, thanks to ignorant people like you who actually think this has something to do with race. Shit, I get accused of racism when I pull up stats on fucking Muslims even though Islam isn't even race. Either way, an accusation is an accusation, you should probably assume that those are wrong before assuming they're true little buddy.

We in the U.S. have been having this same argument with immigration from Mexico from people who are fleeing violence. Who cares if they are unskilled or uneducated? You're acting like because they are unskilled workers they have no value in society. In America, our economy depends on a large workforce of unskilled workers to do the jobs that U.S. born citizens wont. Alabama tried banning illegal immigrant labour (Alabama HB 56), and it was almost universally considered an epic failure as "Industries dependent on migrant labor have been strongly impacted. Farmers have found that Americans are not willing to work under such harsh working conditions for low pay.[15] Some businesses in other industries have lost workers, including legal workers, as a result of the new immigration law.[16]"

Also, can you please explain further how the EU is straining the UK's welfare and housing system through accepting refugees? From what I'm reading, the UK has only accepted 1000 refugees, which should barely have an effect on the NHS or housing... If you have statistics to back up your claim I'm more than eager to read them.

Also its worth noting that only 1% of the average brit's taxes go to the EU. Another reason why I think people are blowing this whole thing out of proportion.

Can you please calm down and put your dick back in your pants. "THERE IS NOTHING RACIST HERE" says the dude whose skype is "thenigger". Of course you probably don't see anything wrong with that though.

I would seriously respond to you but you always resort to being rude and name calling as you already have and I really don't have the patience to deal with that right now.
