The EU deal

It isn't real. A nation is an imagined political community.

I can't think of anything positive that it has ever achieved.

I've more in common with people in other parts of the world than some people on my street, never mind this country.

It is real. It's a social construction but it is real. Social constructions are what society is built on and what differentiates us from animals. You simply cannot have a society without social constructions. If you are going to argue that nationality isn't real, then you may as well argue that money, marriage and law isn't real and discount the existence of society. However the truth is that law, money, and indeed nationality and society are all very real despite being constructs.

Furthermore, the regressive left seem to be very eager to take on collective ownership of guilt for something that our great, great, great, great grandfather's may have engaged in under the umbrella of nationality 250 years ago, but they are reluctant to acknowledge nationality and collective ownership in modern society.

Here's one for you. Suppose we abandon nationality and all become one people. Who's rules do we live by?
Achmed thinks it's fine to throw gays off a tall building.
Bubba thinks it's his consitutional right to own a machine gun and shoot anyone who strays onto his property.
Manuel thinks torturing bulls is a sport.
Hitomi thinks whaling is a legitimate business.
Schteve thinks smackrats should be free to practice their disgusting habit.
Victor thinks killing rhinos and elephants to sell their tusks is good business.

So how do all these different cultures and attitudes fit together?
 

Ho ho ho, nothing like a bit of casual racism for shytz and giggles.

And it's moralising ffs. We're English don't you know.
It's not racism unless German and French people became a different race without me realizing. What next. You can't take a pop at a kopite?

Hitler answered that question with the quote I gave.

"Hitler said that the conquering Arabs, because of their racial inferiority, would in the long run have been unable to contend with the harsher climate of the country. They could not have kept down the more vigorous natives, so that ultimately not Arabs but Islamized Germans could have stood at the head of this Mohammedan Empire"

Not necessarily Germans but one group would dominate and that's the problem. By group I don't necessarily mean race or religion or ideology or whatever just one group. Everyone else will be forced to live by the standards of that group.
