Or learn from the wrong decisions. Which is what a lot of people have done. That's why older people voted to leave. They were around when we last voted on this issue. They believe it was a mistake to join. If you disagree with them, fair enough. But if you disagree with the collective will of the people, then you either have to admit you're wrong, or accept the public have made a mistake they need to learn from.

We probably won't know if this was a mistake for a decade.
