Dear Ahmed, if that's your real name. Unfortunately, some of what you're fearing may become true, as xenophobes are on the rise almost everywhere. And yes, it might be worse in the UK following a Brexit. However, I wouldn't say that "you" or anybody is doomed. The athmosphere in the last weeks must have been really ugly, but it is not so much different elsewhere. Still, the future remains wide open, and the political and economic headaches following the Brexit may soon bring progressives to power. This weekend, there are Elections in Spain, and a moderately eurosceptic, still both socially and economically progressive party might be elected into government. Such developments always trigger reactions, with the pendulum swinging back and forth. I agree the situation is risky and uncertain, and might turn out awful, but at this point everything remains possible. The fight for a better, more social and more friendly Europe may take different forms – maybe the Brexit vote is just another form.
This being said, Talk pages of Wikipedia articles really are no adequate place for forum discussions, personal statements or essays. I'm sure, you'll find more echo at facebook, reddit or other social media. Come back, though, for actual edits and talk about our encyclopedic work. We need your help – just not in the form of personal essays on Talk pages. Regards, PanchoS (talk) 15:14, 24 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
