60% of voters stayed home in Colombia, burying the hope of a peace deal between the government and FARC.
55% of voters stayed at home in Hungary, rendering invalid the referendum on the refugees.
Remember how I said that these things are never one-sided? People turn away from the nation-state in droves. And it isn’t like it’s even that hard to get one’s ass to a voting booth. But people don’t want to make that minuscule effort to preserve the nation-state.
It’s not about incomprehensible, impersonal forces doing things nobody wants to be done to them. The destruction of the nation-state is a choice people make every day.

An amazing life story:
As a teenager, Adolfo Kaminsky saved thousands of lives by forging passports to help children flee the Nazis. He spent his life helping others escape atrocities around the world.
…
After the war, Mr. Kaminsky didn’t plan to keep working as a forger. But through his wartime networks, other movements got in touch. He continued forging papers for 30 more years, playing a small role in conflicts ranging from the Algerian war of independence to the anti-apartheid struggle in South Africa to the Vietnam War, making documents for American draft dodgers. He estimates that in 1967 alone, he supplied forged papers to people in 15 countries.
