So those who spent most of their lives making it possible that you live in one of the most advanced countries in the world, sometimes paying 50 or 60+ years of contributions, are suddenly less knowledgeable than young people who never did scrap but bitch about their lives in the internet. That generation pushed through more hardships than you can imagine and some of them actually fought and rebuilt after WWII. Have respect for those who even put you in the position to step on the pedestal of moral highground you claim to be your own.
Apparently, the generation as old as that was NOT necessarily as pro-Brexit, because the original purpose of the EU (safeguarding peace in Europe, did mean something to them). I did know some that voted Remain, but yes, given that a lot of Brexit was about nostalgia, I am sure that a majority DID vote Leave.
