The most hypocritical people on the planet are those who are ideologically driven. Those driven to ideology are either religious or socialist in inclination. The rest of us have no ideology because we are not drawn to beliefs that are not evidence based. This Metro contributor is no doubt drawn to ideology of the left leaning type (i.e., progressive an off shoot of socialism) which espouses the view that stereotyping people is abhorrent then does exactly that. For he/she Brixteers are all over 45 white people. There is of course some truth in that statement but not enough to make it unequivocal. If he/she had an ounce of intelligence would ask the question why older and wiser people than he/she of that particular group did vote to leave. The answer he/she would find is that it was not just their own future and position in society they were seeking to protect but his/hers as well.
