In North Korea, the people have to swear allegiance to the Great Leader and his dynasty
:maybe-later-kiddo: That's how you know it's freedom and not AuThOrItArIaNiSm!
I hope that on Coronation Day those with republican sympathies will remember that Charles is not just a king, he is a human being too. He's waited long enough. Let him have his day.
Don't be mean to Charlie, he's just a little birthday boy who's excited about his big day!
IT'S HIS TURN!
but what's this? trump from the back row with a chair? AND CHARLIE FALLS OH MY GOD TRUMP IS KING ALL HAIL KING TRUMP
Liz becomes Prime Minister again, visits his coronation, he dies the next day.
I maintain it would be funnier to wait until he's about to sit on the throne and then pull it back so he falls over and then yell "psyche we're abolishing the monarchy"
that Charles is not just a king, he is a human being too. He’s waited long enough. Let him have his day.
If I start waiting now can I be king next then. I am after all a human being
FUCKING WHAT
DO WE LOOK FUCKING AMERICAN TO YOU
JOG ON GOBSHITE
no america is a Democracy they can choose not to say it, you have to .. it is your King!
:very-smart:
I pledge allegiance,
To the king,
Of the U.K, A.K.A TERF island.
And to the pageantry,
For which he stands.
One nation, spurned by God,
With lectures and scolding for all.
Amen
Bad move.
British patriotism is powered more on hatred of everywhere else than love of here. American style flag shagging won't work here.
I've seen tons of union jack shit similar to American flag shit.
fair. As my grandparents used to say "just go along with everything and never complain" not even making that up that was genuinely their life advice
In communist China, the authoritarian CCP forces its people to go along with everything and never complain
my grandparents will also complain that the Chinese are by nature a passive people uncritical of authority. With no sense of irony or embarressment whatsoever
The org, Republic, points out that this means explicitly pledging your allegiance to Prince Andrew too.
"You see, other, less advanced societies still rule by a primitive blood and honor culture that leave them ill-suited to civilized pursuits like badminton and pedarasty. Now, time to swear fealty to the king."
No I don't. Want to keep my options open you know
also Charles is a fucking nerd
who knows he's lived his entire life as an abominable nerd so I don't think he can descend into a lower state of being than he currently lives in
The best government is the one where the leader lives in a literal ivory tower their entire life and had no real responsibilities until about 6 months ago. Duh.
Yeah, I wouldn't want to pledge allegiance to the Windsors and then suddenly the Stuarts get back in, would be super awkward.
Don't get me fucking started on the stuarts mate. Fucking jacobites
although by British tradition you aren't really accountable for oaths made to one king if another takes power as if you can't hold the kingdom you loose legal right to call yourself king
