It may be one reason against Brexit; but the main reason is because certain people have grandiose and overinflated feelings of entitlement, and are convinced that they are intellectually superior to everyone else with different views/opinions.
The STW Brexit thread will confirm that.
The main reason is that leavers like to make shit up and present it as fact, as you’ve just ably demonstrated.
This was one of THM’s favourite straw men, and if you read the thread you’re referring to you’ll see it debunked at length (by me amongst many others) months ago. No-one – well, OK, very few people – are suggesting that all leavers are idiots. Aside from anything else, this is demonstrably untrue. Rather, all the idiots voted for brexit. It’s a subtle but important difference.
And you can argue that black is white all you like but if you look at post-referendum analysis there is a clear correlation between education levels and how people were likely to vote. In fact it’s the second greatest correlation after age. It saddens me somewhat that we’re still having to have this conversation, but here we are.
Claiming to know why people voted a certain way is as daft using it to add weight to your own opinion.
Have any of these studies asked every person who voted for Brexit for their reason?
Yes, actually. It’s very well documented now, we’ve had about three years’ worth of analysis.
if they did .. could they reliably guarantee that the answers they got were true? its nonsense.
Your defence here is that leaver voters might be lying?
