rydra_wong has opinions on the Brexit preparedness campaign

"Get ready for this thing to happen on a date when it probably won't happen. Visit this website to find out how it will affect you. How will it affect you? We don't know, because we don't know what form the thing will take, and the website cannot tell you, though it will inform you of a few of the ways your life may get worse and more inconvenient, so I guess that's something. Get ready. Get ready."

In a comment from xenacryst in agonyaunt about buried treasure

Context gives good advice.
