As an American, if I got cancer like this dude has, having a job there is a very high chance I'd be destitute IF I lived. World class medical treatment off the backs of his subjects.. yeahno my dude, worlds smallest violen playing.jpeg
He can wipe his cancer tears up with whatever the largest denomination of pounds you guys use is xD
And when a president gets COVID he gets drugged up and gets the best treatment on the taxpayers dime. While the people are left with life shattering medical debt.
While these subjects can get medical treatment, for just a fraction, and no debts... Like the king...
So what is your point?
We have been playing the whole sad orchestra for you guys, seeing you push out this attitude like it is a win over something.
The president has an actual job tho??? Like wat lmao 🤣 and if you think the king is getting the same medical treatment as Mr jo British bong water, I have some EU membership to sell you.
I mean, having some water nymph toss a sword at someones feet is at least as good of a justification for governmental power - and if I'm honest, a better one at that.
It's like 40% more creative than "I have all the money and the big boogey man in the sky said I have the right to reign supreme - who are you to question God?"
Please for the love of anything you love stop crying for monarchists and bring back the guillotine. For FUCKS SAKE YOU'RE LITERALLY THINKING LIKE A MIDDLE AGES SERF. GOD EMPEROR SHIT RIGHT HERE
If any of you fucking liberals ever say ANYTHING about communist countries having cults of personality I'm going to haul ass and personally take shits inside your house that will leave you confused for years to come
I'm begging liberals to remember the one cool thing they ever did, which was chopping off their monarchs' heads, and commit to that. Just that. Come on now, this is an argument that's been solved for like 200 years now: monarchs and aristocrats are dogshit and deserve to be forcibly removed from their positions of wealth and authority.
Totally out of the loop on UK royalty, because they're basically just a medieval version of the Kardashians that's hung around waaaaay too long.
I was under the impression that the monarchy's power was predicated on their right to rule being divine, which could only be maintained by keeping their bloodline inbred pure.
I wouldn't say he is German, but German dynasties have sit on the British throne since George I was crowned in 1714. Up till queen Victoria all monarchs belonged to the house of Hanover. Victoria married Albert of house Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, and their son Edward VII was counted as the member of that dynasty. Edward's son George V changed their surname to "Windsor" in 1917.
And i imagine that the house of Saxony which part house Saxe-Coburg and Gotha is, is pretty inbred since basically every surviving european noble today is either part of it or closely related.
Queen Victoria is from the House of Hanover and Prince Albert is from the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. The British royal family changed their house to Windsor during WWI because the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha sounded too German.
If you're going by just family ancestry, Charles III is mostly German. Here's me after wasting time on Wikipedia:
Maternal grandfather's grandparents:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_VII: Anglicized German
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louise_of_Hesse-Kassel: German
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Duke_Konstantin_Nikolayevich_of_Russia: Russian Romanov, but he had 3 German grandparents, so his ancestry is mostly German
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Alexandra_of_Saxe-Altenburg: German
Paternal grandmother's grandparents:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Alexander_of_Hesse_and_by_Rhine: German
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia,_Princess_of_Battenberg: Pole of German descent
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_IV%252C_Grand_Duke_of_Hesse: German

Wild that they could just... Change their house like that. "Oh all that family lineage and history, no, no the name sounds quite too much like those jerries - the peasants won't like it much - what now? yes yes, Windsor we are, always have been, chip cheerio - get in the trench my good chap, and fight my former brethren, I mean those awful germans."
He is the monarch of a state currently bombing Yemen in an attempt to stop their blockade of supplies, military and otherwise, to Isreal. Yes, he is assisting in the genocide of Gaza.
Jesus, lemmy is full of hate
I have 0 sympathy for monarchial families living off the backs of UK taxpayers for... Centuries :|
Yea, I don't wish death upon the guy but come on, get a job now

Is hating monarchies not natural? What gives someone the right to rule over others just because of their bloodline?

That's quite the hot take.

Imagine simping for an inbred German shambling corpse.

Who did what now?
I think it's because we are in .ml and the Hexbears are allowed in here
Mod! mods! These dirty anti-monarchists are ruining our civil discussion!
The civility is somewhat lacking.
Genocidal monarchs do not deserve civility, it's part of the deal.
Charles has committed genocide?
He is the monarch of a state currently bombing Yemen in an attempt to stop their blockade of supplies, military and otherwise, to Isreal. Yes, he is assisting in the genocide of Gaza.
Let's assume your narrative is true. Where is Charles in the decision making process?
Into the cuck pit with you, genocide denier
Remember all the circlejerking about how Lemmy was kinder than Reddit? Nah it's the same maybe worse, with a heavy heaping of communism sprinkled in.
