One can certainly argue that Leaving is worse, but pretending the Leavers are just pointless idiots isn’t that.

I'm not arguing that leavers are pointless idiots. I'm arguing that grand themes with understanding or plans no good

Sure, but the referendum was one question, two possible answers. What can you expect from that?

The Leavers should not be expected to have any sort of plan or other unity based on that vote.

What? Yes, they should! Don't vote to leave in a binding referendum unless you've seen a workable non-disastrous plan

The vote was Stay or Leave, there were no plans mentioned in the referendum either way.

But you don't vote stay or leave without considering the consequences. This is my problem. Ppl voted on big themes.

I think we actually agree almost entirely here. Yes, they did. They weren’t given much else to go by.

This is why referenda on complex issues don't work. They're for things like: should we change our national anthem

Maybe a referendum could be made to work, actual plans on either side, but this certainly wasn’t one of those.

It can work if made simple. Yes. plans. This will result from this choice and this from this one.
