Kirk, this isn't about you. I'm just going to repeat that for your benefit. This isn't about you. You are tarring yourself with the brush for an excuse to be outraged over something.
I said that a large number of people on both sides would have voted despite not knowing what they were actually voting for because they voted based on the headlines and soundbites. That's a true comment, most people don't understand that leaving the EU changes very little in terms of laws or Immigration yet those were the deciding factors for a lot of people who most likely didn't look into the actual issues of staying or leaving.
Expecting the public to make informed decisions based on research and impartiality is incredibly naive.
