Major Brexit milestone achieved - no Brexit extension possible! Social media was alight last night with Remainers shedding yet more salty tears as yet another major Brexit milestone was passed - but now these milestones pass easily and without the drama of politicians conspiring and lawyers suing.

Honestly all levels of class use the freedom of movement and you do know that’s true but are pretending it’s not.

What? That's not true at all. Working class don't use it; it's useless. It's like getting a tax break if you own stocks - worthless to the working class.

Brexit is only going to remove opportunities for the British

For YOU, do you understand? It is going to remove opportunities for YOU and your fellow sneering classist bigots. That you cannot understand that others see the world differently than you - isn't that the whole point of being "educated"? For the working class, it's going to mean less competition for jobs and higher wages as employers must improve conditions or go without.

Good god you’re unpleasant. I’m actually thinking of all the working class people in the UK who are offered jobs in Germany, Spain, Portugal, France and every other European country they might want to work in. I’m really sorry you’re so angry at the world and I hope over time you come to realise the awesome benefits of life in Europe :)

What working class jobs? There aren't any jobs for working class people in Portugal. Besides, who wants to leave house and home, and live in some weird foreign country where they don't speak English and the food smells funny?

YOU love doing these things. You don't speak for the people. You make the mistake of thinking you do, when all you're doing is making class warfare against the people who are hurting the most.

I’m really sorry you’re so angry at the world

There it is again. A refusal to take the argument seriously and dismiss it as some sort of irrational response. Angry at the world, give me a break. It's obvious that EU membership isn't just not in the interest of the people of the UK, it's not in the interest of a lot of the people of the EU, too. Do you think the selection of Von Der Leyen was the behaviour of a transparent, fair and accountable democracy? I don't, I think it disgraces the whole institution. It was what we'd expect from China or other pseudo-democracies.

I knew it wouldn’t take very long to ooze out the far-right racism you said wasn’t a part of this but slow clap man, we finally made it!

Anyways, aren’t people missing you over in Voat?

Are you going to stop slinging slurs and begin engaging in arguments? You're at the bottom of the Pyramid of Debate. Name-calling isn't an argument.

There were no slurs, you said needlessly racist things :)

Like what? Cite specific sentences.

[–]Chipit[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Cite which specific sentence was racist. I've reviewed the comment chain and I don't see anything. I do see a lot of unconscious bigoted classism on your part, though, assuming the working class are just like you and can jet off to another country on a whim and get a job at the drop of a hat.

Lots of people like home, they don't like going anywhere else, and for you to be unaware of this smacks of being uneducated. Something I know isn't true, so what the hell? How do you not have empathy for the little people?

So you can't cite anything I said that was racist, you're just shouting "racist" because you're losing an argument and have no counter-arguments. Yeah, this confirms a lot of what I thought already.

I really couldn’t be bothered going back over your comments but it was the thing about speaking different languages and the food smelling funny. You’re just being kind of a cunt for no reason but you’re also fully aware of that so calling that out, I’m pretty sure isn’t against the site’s rules.

[–]Chipit[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

So Portuguese is a race now?

Yes, lots of people think their own culture's food is good and other cultures' food is weird and smells funny. Don't you think the same? You wouldn't be caught dead eating working class food, eh?

Being kind of a cunt? No. What's happening is I'm accurately pointing out how you're an ugly classist bigot and that's making you feel bad. Instead of dealing with it, you instead invent accusations of racism in your own mind and use that to dismiss the valid points I raised. It's a common psychological defense among your kind.
