Actually the BREXIT is much more democratic and justified. More or less the American Revolution was a small group of citizens who declared themselves a country WITHOUT asking the people around them if they wanted to or not (it was not like there was a vote to leave the
UK
). This is also why you see such a large migration of people like the United Empire Loyalists (and the severe lack of support after the initial rally, it took conscription, sums of money, and other forms of persuasion to convince them to fight for the Americas).
The American Revolutionaries weren't even concerned with the governance part, rather the taxation part (which the main reason they were being taxed was to pay for the war against the
French in Quebec, which the Americans wanted, every other colony was also paying the tax so it isn't like they were being treated unfairly). My simple summary of the American Revolution was a group of rich, white, slave owning, males didn't want to pay their taxes. It also depends on who you read, those who actively seek to justify their actions, or those who look at it was a relatively impartial view.
