The media is getting out of control.
Is the guardian here actually calling for a elitist form of fascism?

There saying only a small subset of the population should be allowed to vote. Any guess where that will be?
How much more crazy is this thing going to get?
(I voted leave, don't regret it)

Every now and then they get bold enough to show their true colors.
War soon, or slavery I guess.
Your choice.
>>79221030
This is ramping up so fast, people might have to make that choice in months, not years.
>>79220904
soon only educated liberals with a degree in "multicultural gender studies" will be considered "educated" enough to vote
all those leftists in the comments... none of them have a problem with the article.
>the problem with democracy is sometimes the right wingers outnumber the left wingers
I didn't even make it through the second sentence before I started raging.
>Never before has such a drastic decision been taken through so primitive a procedure – a one-round referendum based on a simple majority.
THAT'S HOW THEY FUCKING JOINED THE EU YOU TWAT
>>79220904
what a time to be alive
>>79221243
The ball is in the EU's court now.
Remains to be seen if they will Fort Sumter your ass.
>>79220904
You mean EU shills don't like democracy? Holy shit no way
>>79221357
I'm in the centre on most things desu. Agree with some things here, not others but people should have the right to choose what path they collectively decide to go down.
This is just blindly walking into totalitarianism
>>79220904
>Our voting system worked well for decades, but now it is broken. There is a better way to give voice to the people
Translation: people are now voting for things I don't like, so we need to change it to ensure people keep voting how I want

Will trump accept me as a refugee due to this elitist PC nonsense.
I didn't ask for this
>>79220904
How triggered are neonazis on /pol/ that SJW fascist are releasing Hitler's dream for Europe?
>>79220904
paternalism, nothing new from the lib-left or in UK.

Once Whites are a minority they'll be agitating shitskins and encouraging them to murder us, as bad as any Russian kike ever did about Germans.

>What if a random sample of citizens had a chance to learn from experts, listen to proposals, talk to each other and engage with politicians?
>What if a mixed group of elected and drafted citizens had thought the matter through?
>What if the rest of society could have had a chance to follow and contribute to their deliberations?
>What if the proposal this group would have come up with had been subjected to public scrutiny?
>Do we think a similarly reckless decision would have been taken?
>take random sample of people
>tell them what their opinions should be
>and let them """decide""" for everyone else
That is their new solution because voting is just too hard for people they had to make up the term democratic fatigue syndrome.

It figures an Englishman would use de Ruÿter in such a bad way. Come on man, be a good neighbour

About as surprising as Mexicans against the wall.
>>79222425
Don't forget:
>rig the "random sampling"
aka why aren't blacks 50% of the group (let's just ignore that they're 10% of the population)
>shame the fuck out of anyone who votes "wrong" since he's done away with anonymous voting

Has Flemish written all over it..

Here that would be with muslims. Much easier to influence if they make it out good for them somehow.
Would based putin take me in as a PC refugee? I love freedom and bacon, plus I work in a industry that's got a global shortage, so I'd pull my weight.

Serious question time: what is the difference between Flemings and Dutchman? Is it ethnic or purely religious (the Flems being Catholic and the Neders being Protestant)?
I spent a week in Belgium in Flanders area (visited Antwerp, Ghent and Bruges) plus Brussels. I wanted to ask someone but I never got round to it.

The 2nd and 3rd Dutch Wars were damn near the last time we were ever defeated (excluding civil wars like the American War of Independence).
We hate his fucking guts desu.
>>79224716
South dutch are catholics.
>>79227333
So then it is more of an ethnic or geographic difference.
>>79220904
Liberals want to defeat bigotry and the only way to do that is to pull shit like the shit they pull.
Everyone must be """educated""", free speech (anonymity on the internet) must be restricted, and dumb people (bigots) should not be allowed rights (since bigots seek to deny others of their supposed rights).
Idk if they'll ever achieve these things. I think they're moving their ideology wayyyy to fast, and eventual there might be a push-back cycle. In addition, leftism is so anti-comedy that it can't last for too long, can it?
It's a bit of a brave new world. Hopefully /pol/ and others are raising the next generation of people who will call this shit out.
Personally, I believe anyone with an IQ under 115 shouldn't be allowed to vote. They should require IQ tests when applying for voter IDs. Retards can't make logical decisions.

Episodes of southpark from like season 1 - 3 would trigger the fuck out of SJW's now.
There anti comedy but have the elite establishment backing them, which includes the media.
Eventually comedy will be "Well I woke up this morning a japanese school girl and now I'm a <Whatever made up gender is popular at the time>" and the audience will laugh out of fear of being called a bigot.
What is this world coming to?
