The mind of
the Brexitpsyche.....I have been observing the outlook of the
Brexiteers and their ilk on social media for the 10 months. Their
words are full of phrases like " doom and gloom" , "
remoaners" they use words like freedom equality ",getting
your country back ' . They have this phrase *you don't know what will
happen" and with it they deny the predictive skills of
sociology, psychology, econometric s and social research. When you
challenge them you get a sense of deep within of a mythical Arthurian
age where men were men, women knew their place and their was none of
this gender neutral stuff. There was the grammar school and Sunday
lunch was meat and two veg. Climate change is a myth of the left .
Brexit was a stage in stopping the Visigoths at the gate of Rome and
Islamic hordes are sweeping across Europe. There were a few brown
faces but only a few. The Empire and it's loss began the process of
decline. History is made up of facts and it's only real use is for
the pub quiz.
You lefties
with your doubt and lack of certainty are the problem. My common
sense us the only truth. I don't see prejudice, exploitation and
threat I have never seen it. Only the individual exists . Education
is just about getting a job and if you don't fit in just fuck off
,We need more referendum you know, we could do the death penalty
next and on immigration.....
I love the
Queen and am proud and patriotic. Life is straight forward. I like
that Trump and May they are strong and stable . Corbyn and those
Greens are eaten up by envy. That Aaron Banks good luck to him he
worked hard and made millions. Those billionaires know a thing or
two we all could learn a lot from them.
The future
is unknown the Brexitpsyche claims only the past was certain. We
must get back to it they argue. Yet the past seen is a story told by
the British Empire and it's official histories. History is male,
white, middle class about monarchs and the great man and acts as an
apology for imperialism. There is no knowledge of the Diggers and
the Levelers, no awareness if the Enlightenment of people*s history.
Truth is a statistical average and obvious.
I wonder if
the Jacobite felt like me this that looking at Hanoverian England .
I feel like Hogarth looking at the corruption and froth of the
Conservative ranks washed with its blue kip tide. Tony Blair and new
Labour began it. They destroyed a collective sense of politics and
banned the use of class awareness. A few rebels Corbyn , Lucas and
the Greens look for new models. Perhaps June 8 will be Culloden
perhaps not. All I know now that I feel like a Jacobite viewing
early 18th century England . I am aware as they were of the myth of
the 1688 glorious revolution but I too am aware of the myth of new
Labour and of politics free from class. History is and will be for
many years a history of liberation and if class struggle. The
Brexitpsyche is a means and process by which this truth is denied.
As for me I am labeled as un or anti British for liking Europe it's
philosophy and it's outlook. To many of them if they knew their
history I am the Jacobite loyal to the European rulers over the
water....but that Trump the Brexitpsyche like him.....cos that's
different....
