As an American, I have not spent a lot of time thinking about royalty. Our founders rebelled against it; wrote a lot about the negative aspects of Tyrants; and baked this into the Constitution: "No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States."
Despite that, I have often thought - looking at Canada, the UK, Australia, etc. - that perhaps a tamed royalty adds a nice flair and creates a sense of pride that we lack in the US. Queen Elizabeth seems a good person and she has done some good things.
That said, history is in the process of proving our founders right. The British Royal family is in bed with anti-democratic traitors and all the gilded carriages can& #39;t cover that up.
This news story #royalsforhire is ABSOLUTELY DAMNING. The Queen& #39;s cousin and the Marquess of Reading will sell themselves (and the UK by extension) to advance Putin& #39;s interests. https://twitter.com/thesundaytimes/status/1391079256776663042?s=20">https://twitter.com/thesunday...

FxCK all of this "His friend, the Marquess of Reading, later described Prince Michael as “Her Majesty’s unofficial ambassador to Russia.”"
And this comes after the reporting - that I previously knew nothing about - that the Queen herself reigns over the Island of Jersey. And the Island of Jersey is full of pedophiles and money-launderers and SHE PROFITS FROM IT ALL. cc @gregolear https://gregolear.substack.com/p/jersey-off-shore">https://gregolear.substack.com/p/jersey-...
I mean - my God - the Queen and the Royal Family are invested in the Cayman Islands to prevent their wealth from being taxed by the very nation they supposedly represent. https://www.theguardian.com/news/2017/nov/05/revealed-queen-private-estate-invested-offshore-paradise-papers">https://www.theguardian.com/news/2017...
Now I am aware that tax cheating and Putin loving are not the sole territory of Royals. https://www.npr.org/2019/09/27/764879242/nra-was-foreign-asset-to-russia-ahead-of-2016-new-senate-report-reveals">https://www.npr.org/2019/09/2...
And let& #39;s face it, tax cheating and child rape know no borders: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/jun/09/bbc-interview-haunts-prince-andrew-as-us-prosecutors-push-to-break-deadlock">https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2...
And let& #39;s face it, if we do not police the powerful, they will do what they do: sell us off to the highest bidder for sex, power and profit.
We are a nation in which the citizens are the sovereigns. It is OUR government, formed by the people, and it exists solely for our collective benefit. We can& #39;t afford to have royals or senators or anyone else selling us out for child rape or money.
