Indeed. We already have more than enough land for every human, and can probably even provide for double our global population. The problem is that wealthy already owns the majority of land, and limit its access and usage to the average citizen of his nation.

They are some exceptions of this, India and China are the two I can think of right now. But it also probably one reason they are able to have a very high dense population, people there have more access to land.

Accusing the British of being Brutes is like accusing Germans of being Nazi's. It is rooted in the historic actions of these nations, rather than anything in particular they've done today. Sure British tourist have their stereotypes, but honestly they aren't worse than Chinese tourist, or Muslim migrants. As long as British tourist are still paying customers, many nations will still be happy to host them. Don't take these comments so seriously, it's all in good humor.

Brexit on the other hand is a tragedy so awful that you can wonder how a nation once known for it's ability to govern an empire spanning the entire globe, and innovators of capitalism, made such a stupid decision. Like pointing a gun to your head and pulling the trigger thinking it will cure your headache. It's so ridiculous I still can't come up with a proper insult to throw at the Brits concerning their decision to commit economic suicide.

They make sense, as they were good enough to stop imperial empires from ravaging the world. But their limits are a governing forces are seen today.

I do think the age of nation-states are ending soon, and the rise of a new type of state may happen soon. Maybe something like a culture-state?

Considering the behavior of British tourist globally today, or even the history of their empire, the two words may as well have the same meaning.
