The vitriol in the position. Possessing such a negative exaggerated view point is not healthy and doesn't help discourse. UK has challenges yes, but it has a lot of good to offer too. It reads like left-wing doomerism.
My rhetoric and vocabulary aside, the fact remains the UK is a cautionary tale for the only remaining super-power who the World has come to resent in my Life-time due to it's atrocious track record on civil liberties domestically and empire adventurism abroad. I think the parallels are incredibly apt and are getting more dangerous as the World has descended into Authoritarian-fascism seen around this time last century.
Also, I identify as an anarcho-capitalist with staunch crypto-anarchist values and I think we've been pigeon-holed as right wing extremist/terrorists given our views so being called a left-wing doomerist is a new one. But given how the US and UK have treated Julian Assange, someone from our community, one can sort of guess why you'd call me/us that.
Just so it's clear I was pro-Brexit, but not for the reasons you may think; Nigel Farage is the very definition of the opportunist and useful idiots that makes up the UK (all of them really) political system, as is the whole system with it's reshuffling of PMs and crashing of the GBP and pension system to serve the elites with tax exemption while the populace suffers the most.
