    When I signed up here, I genuinely thought this place was going to be better than Reddit. Seeing the difference in comments here and on Reddit for this exact same piece of news, just made me realise that this place is a piece of shit with absolutely zero empathy for anyone.

      "Could it be that the zero empathy is because the man is reviled globally for good reasons?"

      "No, it's the colonized who are wrong."

      Imagine pearl clutching for some ancient inbred royal dipshit. Literal medieval peasant brain. "Oh no won't someone think of the million year old pervert who lived a long life full of luxury one can barely begin to comprehend" Fuck him, fuck his whole family, I hope every single royal gets aggressive untreatable cancer, that's better than they deserve.

      TL,DR: dennis I didn't vote for him!

          Mainly confused and surprised someone would support a monarch in the 21st century. You don't even have the excuse that the queen has been in charge for your whole life so you feel obligated to support her out of a misplaced sense of loyalty or something. Some ancient failson gets to sit in a golden chair and you can't lick his boots fast enough. It's pathetic, you aren't even worshiping someone who can claim they got to where they are on personal merit, he just had to wait for his mom to die and he almost couldn't even do that! Monarchy is such a farce, I'd be embarrassed to support that shit

      The redditors got it right for once?

      Why would you have empathy for monarchs? It's the ultimate form of nepotism, believing that they can rule an entire country because of their bloodline. If they don't abdicate the throne and dissolve the institution, they don't deserve respect.

        The redditors didn't agree with wishing death upon the man, no. It was the exact opposite from what I saw.

          Redditors habitually wish death upon homeless people and porch pirates, of course they bootlick monarchs too.

          Probably just the anglo intelligence assets that pass for moderators over there removed all the cool comments. What can you do shrug-outta-hecks

      Is every person the king of england or how do you get to this conclusion?

      No one voted for the wanker, but we still have to pay to keep him and his incestous kin in riches while our fellow countrymen starve in the street.

      He wants pity, he should abandon this hereditary rule bullshit and take all those unelected peers up in parliament with him back to the medieval age where they belong.

      give us one singular solitary good reason we should have empathy for this decrepit, cheating, silver spoon mouthed, tax leeching, sex pest, waste of money and attention

      If this was a gay asylum seeking Guatemalan Muslim woman union leader we'd probably react differently, so you're wrong about that.

      Damn redditors actually have a correct opinion on the most basic thing?

      Well shit, broken clocks and all that

        Reading is hard apparently. I said the difference in comments between here and reddit, meaning what I saw over there was NOT people wishing for his death.

      Not so, we have plenty of empathy for those who actually deserve it.

      Palestine will be free, long live the PFLP, long live Ansar Allah, full support to the DPRK in it's quest to free their southern siblings from beneath the heel of the genocidal American empire.
