Addendum the #ReasoningFallacyBiasCognitiveConfirmationIToldYouSo #BehaviourSmugness tenor of this tweet strongly suggests a #OtheringCaricatureBrexitBrexiteer perspective. Put bluntly, who benefits from wishing ill of the EU? Such characterisation also evokes a metaphorical othering exemplified by the #PhenomnBrexit #CatchcryLoveEuropeButNotEU, where #ToponymEuropeUKEngland_ was (erroneously) understood to be separate from #ToponymEurope, creating a distinction (evoking #MetaphorSpatialTerritory_ symbolism) where #ToponymEuropeUKBritishIsles and #ToponymEuropeContinental are framed as being wholly distinct (and so incurring no impediment through their divorce). This reminds me of #IRLScholarGeorgeLakoff's #TheoryLinguisticsConceptualMetaphorCMT analysis as per: "Consider Brexit, which used the metaphor of 'entering' and 'leaving' the EU. There is a universal metaphor that states are locations in space: you can enter a state, be deep in some state, and come out that state. If you enter a café and then leave the café, you will be in the same location as before you entered. But that need not be true of states of being. But that was the metaphor used with Brexit; Britons believed that after leaving the EU, things would be as before when the entered the EU. They were wrong. Things changed radically while they were in the EU" (23 July 2016). http://george-lakoff.com/2016/07/23/understanding-trump-2/ #PoliticsNationalismRomantic

Supplementary #AdvocacyEUSocialEuropeJustusSeuferle "Two competing ideas about the worker dominate contemporary discourse. The first--predominantly found in the United States--is cultural; the second, once prevalent in Europe, is material. The cultural definition, often reflected in self-identification surveys, hinges on the colour of one's collar. It distinguishes between blue-collar and white-collar workers--those who work with their hands versus those in bureaucratic or intellectual roles. Under this framework, even a small business owner can be considered a worker. The only criterion is a sense of cultural belonging tied to one's type of work. This vague and malleable definition leads to absurd outcomes: a brash, orange-hued billionaire with a neoliberal agenda can be hailed as the champion of the working class. In contrast, the European tradition has historically adhered to a materialist, Marxist perspective. A worker, in this view, is someone who owns nothing but their labour power and is therefore compelled into what Marx termed 'relations of production' with those who control the means of production. Marx described the worker as doubly free--free from external coercion to labour, yet also free from ownership of the resources necessary for survival. This condition creates structural dependency and limits individual freedom. By this definition, liberal democracy has yet to fulfil its promise of liberty for the working class. This framework does not rely on cultural identity or habits but on economic position. It sees the term 'worker' as a measure of dependence." https://www.socialeurope.eu/how-the-right-hijacked-the-working-class-for-culture-wars #ReasoningFallacyAppealToTraditionEverydayPeopleEveryman #TheoryMarxism #CatchcryIdentityPolitics #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPPOTUSDonaldTrump #TauntOrangeManBad #IdentityClassBlueCollar #IdentityClassWhiteCollarMiddle #PoliticsCapitalismNeoliberalism #IRLSociologistPierreBourdieu

@CyrilGeorge [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [164]: For the #woke folk, #Remainers & open immigration advocates like @Angelmerke & @UKLabour. Some people of differing ethnic origins integrate, value British customs, traditions, history and culture. Do not ignore them withyour #agitprop. @spikedonline @HJS_Org @NickFerrariLBC [URL redacted]
"BREXITERS are NOT xenophobes or racists but have constantly to fend off assertions by bitter Remainers. Our raison d'être is to be able to rule ourselves, our fishing grounds and our democracy with representatives who can easily be booted out. The EU project is staffed by unelecteds, is unaudited and is a bureaucratic nightmare of 28 nations with almost as many languages, controlled from within the Twin Towers of Brussels and Strasbourg. We reject open immigration and the influx of a culture so alien and destructive to our own. Skilled guys a credit to their origins and our great And sovereign country AND KEEPING US ALIVE!!

Addendum presumably intended to create outrage through evoking a #MetaphorPurityRacialWhiteWomenAndBlackMen narrative. #PhenomnCulturalFormPhotographyMugshot
The "our great And sovereign country" characterisation (and #PhenomnPolarisation #MetaphorVersusSideBySideDiptych ) reminds me of #CaricaturistTomGauld's #2015_OurBlessedHomeland [tweet]
