What would be great, now, would be that some of the millions of definitely not racist Leave voters oppose the emboldened voices of the racists, xenophobes and far right that are coming out loud and proud on our streets and workplaces. I see it as the big fight now, and it's a fight for everyone, but I mean that instead of defending yourselves/themselves as "I'm not racist" individuals, to make sure that the far right fuckers don't take your voice, don't claim your vote as a vote for them. I mean not just saying "I'm not racist, you don't get it, stop calling me racist", but saying "and I will not stand by" and not standing by. Saying "all this racist shit, this is not in my name, this is not on.", otherwise y'know it kind of looks like you don't care all that much.
Yeah I'm an optimist. But it's a fight we need to win.
