That holds true only for the illiterate and stupid. The goal of the old EEC was an ever closer harmony between the people if europe. Everybody able to read could find that in the encyclopedia brittanica in every public library. The people of britain were asked in 1975 to give their opinion on remaining a member of the EU. You wanted to stay in.
I don't know what your politicians told you then, probably lies, same as in 2016. But only the stupid believe what politicians tell them.
Especially today, with the internet, you can get informed, with a little bit of critical reading. In 2016 approx. 48% of the voting population could.
