I’ve been a hard Euroskeptic since my national conservative days - which I still am even as a communist.

I’ve found new reasons to dislike the European Union moving to the left so as to how the Western left supports them is baffling imo.

    In itself the notion of euro-“skepticism” cannot be rooted in class struggle. To be skeptical you have to believe there is something supposedly useful about it : conservatives are now skeptical because they are on the side of the bourgeoisie that created the EU, but now they have doubts about whether or not this structure is appropriate for their bourgeois goals.

    Marxists are opposed to capitalist hegemony so we simply rejoice at their division and to see them going into the wrong direction

    So essentially Brexit is still bad either way?

      I mean it’s good if you want to see the West burn

        This is exactly my reason for still supporting Brexit, weakening the imperial core.
