    I still find myself automatically trying to put straight their lies and bullshit. But what's the point? The burner will vanish shortly. The dribbler will carry on spouting his nonsense until he picks up another ban and leaves us in peace for a while. Brexit will carry on being shit. Boris will carry on being a lazy, useless moron.

    Ignore them and they'll go back to the racist corner they crawled out of, where their posts are no doubt cheered by others of their kind. I shudder to even imagine such a place.
    I have said it countless times, stop feeding them.

    I know some of you have the mindset of 'their bullshit needs to be called out!" but you forget the people who are prone to believing what they say do not care what the facts say. They just dismiss facts that debunk their nonsense as 'fake news' or 'propaganda'.

    They are worse than that now. They aren't just dismissing things as "fake news", they are literally taking a piece of bad news, pretending that it's good and claiming it as a Brexit benefit. It's gone beyond a difference of political opinion to being a different intepretation of reality. So I agree with you, discussion and debate are pointless; it's like trying to argue with a schizophrenic that the voices they're hearing aren't real.

    I don't think we'll ever be able to get people like this back now. It feels like they're too far gone.

    52-48 Huey remember that?

    In my book it's the majority that are the norm, and one by one the minority remainers left on the fringes swap back into that normal fold, newly enlightened, educated and welcomed to our flock with open arms by we Brexiteers.

    Some know the voices they hear aren't real.. But it's still hard to filter out things that are actually happening to you, even if you know it's just subjective reality, rather than objective reality.
    But that's steering way, way off course for a brexit thread

    We tend to have a vote, that counts anyway, on the EU every 40 or 50 years so the next one won't be until 2060 ish.

    And with the wonderful news coming out of Poland this week who knows if the EU will still exist. It is particularly interesting to watch that situation develop and I do wonder what would happen if the EU had its army now in place.

    Inevitable that too, even though the remainers at the time of the referendum said an EU army will never happen. Do you think the EU would use it to enforce the supremacy of EU law on the Polish people? Tanks on the streets maybe?

    Donald Tusk seems worried, and he should know.

    So what about the 60% that didn't vote for Boris? That's a majority, so you should believe that their voice should count for more than Boris.

    Oh wait, you're a giant hypocrite who will "support" whatever mental gymnastics are required to prove that your side is supposed to be the winner. Which is why you'll deny PR in almost the same breath that you demand majority rule is best.

    This is why nobody will take anything you say seriously. Logic is a foreign language for you.

    Hue, I just read what he says with a massive pint of salt.

    The only thing I tend to suffer from is brain damage from the amount of facepalms I have to do when I read his bullshit, and his arrogance/propaganda ''JOIN US, GET COMMON SENSE!'' type of posts.

    Britain destroying 10.000 pigs due to lack of butchers/transport, while going through a pork shortage. Brexit in a nutshell.

    God I hope they remove Poland and Hungary. Imagine how tranquil it’ll be, with the UK, Poland and Hungary gone.

    Besides the EU will stand longer than the UK, just a matter of the brits beeing hypocrits and keeping the scots in a union they dont want.

    You do understand these sort of dates are not set in stone, right?

    With how many hate Poland, it will be even better than brexit.

    I love the utter lack of consistency on show from our resident burner. What he sees is fact, but what we can all see is made up. What he knows about other areas of the country is truth, what the media print (or we hear) about other parts of the country is made up.

    I don't think he even realises how childish and insane he sounds with these rants. He presumably thinks he's "setting us straight" when in actual fact he's giving us all a good giggle while he continues his impotent outbursts.

    And all his words will vanish shortly. Then he'll be back to repeat the process, for reasons that no sane person could understand.

    I would take a guess that the short duration of the petrol shortage might have something to do with BJ deploying the army to supply petrol.
    Just a guess..

    So it wasn't fixed long term, only short term through the deployment of the army.
    It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

    Then they just restart their modem and get a new IP address, and some poor guy who has the same ISP suddenly can't access the site. At most they probably have to turn the modem off for like 10 minutes to make sure they get a new IP address.

    Someone wasting their time spamming burner accounts to post on these forums doesn't come across, to me, as smart enough to figure that out.
