Britons are frantically googling the phrase ‘What is the EU’ hours after voting for the UK to leave the European Union, according to Google Trends.

The tech giant claims that ‘What is the EU’ is the second top searched for question since the EU referendum results came out.

Crazy English voting against their self interests.

1. Maybe they're figuring out, too late, that they've stepped in it

Actually, I think they are finally just waking up but you go ahead and think that DUmmy.

8. Honestly,
 
it's probably school kids having an assignment that deals with current events.

Furthermore, if British adults truly don't know what the EU is, then the "Remain" campaign did a terrible job trying to convince people to stay in it

Honestly, it's really probably the Libs who are opposed to it and don't really know why.

16. YES.
 
This is why you don't put complicated economic policy up for general population referendum just because you've had a spat with another Eton schoolboy, CAMERON

21. Was Cameron drunk when he came up with this?

A better question to ask...Was summerschild's father drunk when he mated with he/she/it's mother?

18. I think it brings up an important point
 
People can't answer how the EU really benefits them.

The most important point is that liberals in the USA know everything about how those in another country shall live their lives.

Google only says a topic is "Trending", it doesn't say where the searches originate. "kpete" lept to her conclusion as to who was doing those searches based solely on her love of big government and disapproval of the Brits' vote to reject big government. "anoNY42" is in the right ballpark, but his/her age range was too narrow. My guess is that a big majority of the search inquiries are from Americans, of all ages. We tend to know best things close to and affecting us, and less about things thousands of miles away that seldom affect us (IOW, we're normal human beings).

Flipping that script, the UK was part of the EU, and their lives were affected daily and even hourly by the EU, so I doubt many Brits over age 10 or 12 were Googling "What is the EU".

Now, remind me ... where does kpete live ... in Liverpool? ... in Birmingham? ... in Newcastle? Hmmm ... hmmmmm ... where does kpete live .........?

Maybe I'm just too much of a simpleton and my logic is too shallow, but think about this, DUmmies:

Most of the people that voted to REMAIN were younger.  Younger people tend to be more tech savvy.

The older generations voted heavily to LEAVE.

Wouldn't it seem most likely then that the ones now nadining "What is the EU" are the younger generations?  The ones who voted to remain?  The ones that voted to remain without even knowing what the EU is?

Their TOS establish DU as an echo chamber. And echo chambers are boring and "mindnumbing". A Lib/Prog could register and post here or CU or RO and as long as they didn't go ballistic and use ban-worthy epithets in response to being vigorously challenged, they could stay as long as they chose. If I posted my views - of many subjects - over on DU a couple of times I'd get as many Hides as posts and be banned. So DU's echo chanber is not only established by their TOS, but they vigorously enforce that echo chamber.

It's their sandbox, and they can write their own rules for playing therein. :tongue: :popcorn: Just as I'm free to laugh at the predictable outcome of their rules. :popcorn: :tongue:
