Just a couple of thoughts about Brexit, which I haven’t really paid much attention to, despite having lived in England when I was a graduate student at Cambridge:
First of all, as usual, to American commenters, it’s all about us, ranging from some guys on right wing websites blaming the whole thing on Obama (naturally,) to the standard mainstream take that, just like with Trump, it’s about a bunch of angry working class white people who hate minorities in their country. This, of course, ignores another, and potentially much more damaging issue, “austerity.”
