Where were these 'facts' obtained? You offer no links to any of the sources of your facts...this weakens your stance somewhat.
(Remember this was a very dirty and acrimonious campaign, there was a lot of political clout at stake...and power is a very motivating force)
Were they from the press which you deem to be the best 'brainwashing machine in the world' or are you party to some other form of information gathering?
Maybe you have personal contact with some of the billionaires who donated money...or maybe you took as gospel what some of the politicians who were on the remain side, told you.
Whichever it was, it makes no difference. The country voted. It had its say.
ALL media information has a bias. It is up to the reader to read between the lines and always ask questions....always look further than the sound bite, the headline. Look at different sources. Weigh up what is presented as information...if at all possible seek out independent sources (this is not always possible) but nothing says we have to swallow whole what the popular press serve up.
