So basically, “[people of nation x] are all the same.” The mantra of all nationalists around the world.
I stongly oppose Brexit to the point where I wish we were part of the Shengen area, but some mean spirited people have decided that I am the same as Nigel Farage and Jacob Rees-Mogg because of the country I live in. I felt I was more European than British before the Brexit vote (voting remain was an obvious choice) and I’m having both taken away from me because of the actions of nationalists over the whole continent.
All nationalists can go and fuck themselves, no matter what country they identify with. I didn’t get to choose which lump of rock I was born on. Eugene V. Debs was right.
I have no country to fight for; my country is the earth; I am a citizen of the world.
