from what i can tell, the upper classes really have a special kind of contempt for everyone else there, and ordinary UK citizens can kinda surmise what would happen if they actually had full control over things. i really think they would go 1984 on their citizens (and they do try) if not for the backlash

id say the difference between a typical authoritarian regime and 1984 is that the first demands you dig the ditch or you are executed, while the 2nd is a very sophisticated system that only serves to distract, annoy and humiliate the citizens for no real reason other than it pleases the people at the top. the ruling class in 1984 isn't a realistic depiction of north korean leadership, and it's a stretch to call it similar to the soviet union leadership either, but it seems eerily similar in spirit to the incredibly condescending and petty elite of the UK

My view is it's less about the backlash, because the ruling/media class have made it very clear they dont give a single solitary shit about what the plebs think, and more about the basic incompetence of everyone involved at the top.

It was more "things are manifestly shit and getting shitter. On the one hand, quite a lot of the media has tfor years old me things will get better without the EU interfering. On the other the hand, most of the politicians who are making my life worse are pro-EU and the most entitled dickheads in the country are more concerned about it being more difficult to go on holiday. I'm willing to gamble that at best things improve, but at worst it won't be that much worse than what's already happening AND I get to spite people I hate". Obviously things got worse, because regardless of their stated views on the EU, all major UK politicians and journalists are in the same big club, view their constituents with contempt and are committed to the same systems that have repeatedly failed. The entire state is cursed

That's just post war Britain, people already have the image in their minds, so it's not difficult to imagine Britain sliding even further into a hopeless dystopia. A US dystopia on the other hand is more about sliding further into violence and exciting degeneracy, as that's what people already associtate the US with.

I'm convinced the governments of (western) Europe are desperately trying to rig every system they can as hard as they can. There is no way so many people still vote in favor of infinite niggers after all that's happened. Similarly in fully convinced the UK ruling class is working with the EU to punish Britain for leaving and sabotaging everything they can to force them to rejoin the "union"

The problem was it was enacted by referendum and not voting in politicians in favour of leaving the EU. So we ended up with politicians who disagreed with the result tasked with enacting the result, and as such they didn’t really enact it beyond a few headline grabbing actions.

British people didn’t end up with direct sovereignty and those in charge have only become more belligerent in their destruction of this country.

In my view, the UK is more insidious because it all seems to be done in the name of humiliating the population as much as possible. At least China and NK are simple authoritarian regimes, they just want to quell dissent and maintain existing hierarchies of control. Not noble reasons, but at you at least understand what the thought process is there. The UK doesn't seem to have any reason to do the things it does unless their actual goal is to maximize the suffering and oppression of their citizens in the name of liberal ideals that they don't actually defend when push comes to shove
