However a friend on FB unfriended me after he declared all leavers were racist idiots That is certainly wrong and pretty much bullshit. What is true, though, is that virtually all racist idiots voted leave. John Scalzi put it much more succinctly: (from http://whatever.scalzi.com/2016/06/22/hey-scalzi-do-you-have-an-opinion-on-brexit/ http://whatever.scalzi.com/2016/06/22/hey-scalzi-do-you-have...) : "Two, while not everyone who might vote “Leave” is an appalling racist and/or low-information nationalist, it’s pretty clear that nearly every appalling racist/low-info nationalist is voting “Leave,” and that the people engineering the Leave vote are perfectly happy to leverage those folks to get what they want. If you find yourself on the same side as appalling racists/ignorant “patriots”, you might ask yourself why, and additionally whether you might be more appalling and/or ignorant than you’d like to admit."
