ClashAndBurn Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 Not people moralizing over people's reactions to the death of someone born into immense wealth and privilege who was a symbol of oppression to much of the non-Western world. Tone policing and civility politics truly is the worst. Time to move on from the monarchy and bring back the spirit of the French Revolution, tbh!

I've skipped this thread as a whole because i don't want more WPs but lemme just say that i agree 1000% with you

Miss Show Business Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 Some of the replies in here. Acting as if Elizabeth herself is directly responsible for the actions of her ancestors. There are many valid criticisms of the current royal family (such as them quietly influencing politics and using tax loopholes). Blaming them for 1000 years of their ancestors actions isn't as valid a critique. It's possible to be saddened by the Queen's passing as well as to acknowledge that the RF is a far from perfect institution. Elizabeth was born into the RF and had an enormous responsibility dumped into her lap at a young age. She hardly can be blamed for the problems with the monarchy and it's colonial past brought about by her ancestors.

Pikachoo Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 these tiktokers trying to be edgy. go home you losers. Her Majesty The Queen has accomplished more in one day than you have in your entire life

Sure, but that is how every elected head of state should act. Monarchs should be waiting on them not the other way around.

For as much as conservative people talk about SJWs and virtue signaling and all that, the performative bullsht is on another level with them. It don't matter. I've lost people in wars which she initially helped with..... Still im not gonna sit and joke about someone's death. You think Europe and the U.S are innocent ? Millions and millions of ethnic people died terribly because of their invasions and constant wars. The U.S has electricity, running water and power soley because they killed millions to get oil since they spend their entire economy on building weapons. Still to this day people are suffering because of the white reign. Let's NOT open that wound. But joking about her death? Disgraceful

Oh no, your dead empire lost their figurehead who symbolized global oppression and colonialism, how ever will we go on? Pouring tea into the Boston Harbor in honor of monarchist bootlickers
Nip Tuck Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 the royalists in here. it’s sad that somebody passed, yes, but it’s not any sadder than some other random person just because of who she was born to damn.
ToMmY Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 They will try everything they can to make people believe the world is grieving harder than when Diana was killed but we know the truth. Now THAT was truly a sad day for everyone in the world. Only a handful of us in this forum can remember.
