As much as I want the Tories to lose tomorrow, part of me also hopes they win. Because then the cluster fuck that is Brexit will happen on their watch, and, in the way Gordon Brown is blamed for the 2008 financial crisis...
I'm convinced you're right about this. It's the Slavoj Zizek perspective.
I'm not sure I can stomach the nihilism personally, especially while the US is quietly slipping into tyranny.

As much as I want the Tories to lose tomorrow, part of me also hopes they win. Because then the cluster fuck that is Brexit will happen on their watch, and, in the way Gordon Brown is blamed for the 2008 financial crisis, we can spend the next ten years hammering the Tories for plunging us into recession, losing any standing we had on the international stage, devastating our public services, etc.
