Yeah. We have all that shit too Patrick but they don't have the same gravitas as a member of the royal family. It shows a greater respect of our country to send a member ot the royal family, rather than some here today gone tomorrow lying scumbag piece of shit politician that some retarded UK republicunts would like to inflict on our friends overseas.
How many people ever turn out to welcome a visiting ambassador, secretary or politician? Admittedly, a bunch of retards did turn out to wave when we were visited by Obama and the pope in recent years. But then, morons will be morons.

People only respect the royal family because it's tradition and they have been respected (often forcefully through strict authority and violent measures) for centuries. So now people think it is natural to bestow the queen and other royal members with the utmost respect, such as kissing their hands or kneeling and bowing upon greeting or something. People just do it because it's a bullshit tradition that's been ingrained into them, and most people are too basic to question authority or defy tradition in society.
Seriously though, what has the monarchy ever REALLY done for you people? The people have given them billions and maybe even trillions of dollars over the years. In return for the price of that magnitude, what have they given back to their people?
In return, all you people get are a few dozen visits to some countries, maybe they host a couple balls or fundraising events to sell pristine art for "charity" (which is another code word for elite social mixer), they procreate and pop out a couple heirs to continue their legacy for the royal throne.
What is so respectable about that? Really if you think about it you are funding the world's most elite socialites.
Literally anybody who isn't a ratchet skank who can speak proper English can play the part of the royal family if they were in their position and receiving that kind of taxpayer money. Does being royalty require any type of training or knowledge or specialized skills? No, it doesn't. You simply have to play the part of a demure, polite, cordial person with good manners. Literally anybody who isn't a hoodrat could do it.

Nah man to be honest most of the world is unhappy and doesn't know why. And pretty much all of the underclass is working more than they want and facing economy instability while rich do-nothings stand on their backs. And, likewise, people will defend the way things are down to the bone just because they don't have the foresight to imagine anything different. It's sad.

No, Maybe they don't. I'd guess that the overwhelming majority in the UK wouldn't want their job either. I shore as shit wouldn't want the lifelong scrutiny that they have to put up with. Oddly enough they've had a damn sight less choices in life, simply through an accident of birth, than either of us have. I wouldn't be surprised if the monarchy didn't die out simply because none of the offspring want the job. Remember Prince Edward?
They do a job they were born to, and do so as well as they can, which, considering the spotlight they're under, they do with surprisingly few fuck-ups.
I feel for the poor cow and sure as shit don't envy them, nor would I want their jobs. I remember the Queen and Prince Phillip, not long out of hospital with some urinary tract infection, having to watch some flotilla go past on the Thames as some ridiculous duty they had to perform on as cold and miserable midsummer day that I can recall, as part of the 2012 Olympic opening ceremony. A display of true British grit awaits some republicunt German/Greek comment that few republicunts, or I could muster.

Them being there, representing a colonial past, is kind of a kick in the face to the many nations they colonialised.
Do you see this?
You feel empathy for the queen because of her arduous task of waving her hand in that unique way?
It must be a tough life not having to do anything for yourself, like cooking, getting from A to B, cleaning your clothes, changing your sheets etc. and not having to worry about money.

Still, the monarchy has moved with the times. Now they wipe their own arses. Allegedly.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groom_of_the_Stool
Seriously, fuck them, and the parasitic hangars on. Lords, Dukes, other fancy title, and their female equivalent are all on the dole, even if they work. It's a stipend awarded based on what cunt spat them out into the world. All backed up with force.
Heh, just as I saw this thread, looky at what I saw on facey:

You are spot on, its a joke Its like a huge weights been lifted I no longer live under the suppression of these people. Parasites.
You don't realise how it is seeping into your daily life through the media and people around you, their words its a constant be littleing and oppression like you are the servants.

And the alternative to a Monarch as an acting head of state would be yet another lying piece of shit scumbag politician. I'll stick with the continuity that the Monarchy represents.
When we send the Queen on a state visit it shows a damn sight more respect for that country than if we were we to send them the above stated politician.
I think it bears repeating...if all my countrymen took their work as seriously as the Queen takes hers, she's 90 years old for fucks sake, and still going strong, this country would be a damn sight better off. Correct me when you're still working at 90 ya...
LOL.
Theyre parasites.
The head of which parasites, the Queen, your countrymen recently voted to keep as their head of state. And judging from your eloquent post, leaves you as what? little more than a tick on the parasite of the body politic of Canoodlia. So. hey. swivel on that fucker.
never heard of it, probably because the decision has absolutely no impact on the way we conduct ourselves.

For me as an introvert I feel it would be pretty easy. Think about it. You're talking about people who have never done their grocery shopping in their entire life, they have "fetch boys" to do literally everything for them.
People to cook for them, people to dress them, probably people to wipe their asses and be at their beck and call 24 hours a day.
All in all, life is pretty easy if you have unlimited resources, and all the staff in the world helping you, along with the support of an entire nation.

My dad is one of those people that doesn't know how to cook. He's always either bought prepared food, or somebody has cooked for him his entire life.
I'll give him a set of instructions on how to prepare meals, and he literally won't be able to follow it. He is confused the whole time, and has to ask me every step of the way if he's doing it right, and of course he's doing it all wrong.
It's the oddest thing. I'm like, "How does somebody with a PhD not know how to cook for themselves? How are they not able to figure this shit out? This is something an elementary school kid should be able to do."
I seriously don't understand how somebody who is supposed to be highly educated is unable to perform the most simplest of tasks.

Could you tell us which lying piece of shit scumbag politician you would like to see replace the Queen as our representative abroad, and why, exactly, do you despise the countries that you would wish to inflick that mother fucking son of a of bitch on so much as to send them there?
And maybe do so without being a cunt to me.
It's not a good choice, is it? Lying shitbag who's probably been fagged (their term, not mine) in public school, grows up to be a sycophant, and the psychopaths rise to the top because hierarchies work as a filtration system for psychopaths. Or, a family, who, on the merits of being born to the right parents, representing "the country". Whatever that means.
You ever watched yes minister/prime minister, or the new statesman? It's pretty much that, you've got business leaders who usually are in the position they are because of family wealth and power, making deals that can make or break a nation. A royal family is a figurehead for that entire aristocracy.
Killing the aristrocrats just replaces them with a bureaucracy, the likes of which france is still suffering with to this day. Leads to some great moody films and music mind you.
Monarchy, hierarchy, they are artifice, like road signals, or a screwdriver. A tool that's supposed to help people, but times change and some tools become obsolete. Whilst some people will lament the passing of the slide rule and logarithmic tables, or handwriting, most these days don't even know what they are, and in time will pass into obscurity. In time, folks will see what works for them, and know what doesn't work for them. Everyone knows parasites are not a good thing, and the relationship the monarchy (not just in the UK, but Belgium, Japan, North Korea, Arabia and the rest of the world) is nothing but.
Me personally, I'm offended by the idea that anyone is more or less important than myself, it's that sort of class system which leads to a lack of compassion and in extreme cases, treating people little better than livestock, even slaughtering them.
Just to be the devil's advocate for a minute: I couldn't imagine it's that nice being royalty. Being a duke or a lord would be fine, because I'd get to swan about in my palace and grounds, have every material need cared for, and not even have to lift a finger to have a nail cut, nose blown, or arse wiped. But, the royal family, will never be able to have a day in the paupers shoes, or put on some tatty clothes and go into a pub for a quiet pint. And that would build resentment. I could well imagine such a person sympathising, even taking to heart the works of Thomas Malthus, or that italian twat, Machiavelli, about how the little people deserve their lot in life, that they are genetically poor and that's why they spread poverty and it has nothing to do with the system they and their cohorts have conspired to enforce, generation after generation, since early Egyptian times. Now there's a society that would have appreciated a slide rule!
But, they are just as trapped as we are, their bonds aren't material, but spiritual. Wouldn't it be nicer if there was some sort of balance? So, sure, let them do ceremonies, let them have a single palace (with the others rented out on timeshare, proceeds going to the country) and an income that, whilst modest to them, would be very generous to any of us. The same sort of income a senior civil servant makes, after all, those are the ones doing all that work to come up with new laws and those all important foriegn deals.
As for inflicting the English on the rest of the world, I've always taken myself to be an ambassador, representing my interestes, when abroad. I put on the best face I can because I'd like the idea of say, the Maltese coming to my country, and saying: "We wanted to go on holiday and we met a nice Englishman so we wanted to visit his country." It's a nice idea, there's no threats nor conspiracy needed.
I know that ideas often don't survive contact with reality. Sometimes they do, and then wonderful things happen. Other countries seem to manage just fine without a family in fancy dress being the head of state, so it's a tenable idea.

The only way I can really describe UK culture is that they punch you with the hands but the mouth is saying I'm not hitting you. Eventually people believe it and do the same to others because they don't know what to do. Nobody there is dealing with their emotions. They are like children having temper tantrums. You need only turn on the UK TV to see what the majority culture is about.
The people there poisened my spirit, poisened my mind then used my body as a slave and the "me" ego then took poisens as a reflection result and symptom of this and my spirit and mind took the blame. Its been hard to accept but even my own family did this to me because they knew no better.
I've had to realise I'm a pretty fucked up person as a rsult of this. On one hand I have an "ego" self who is a very dangerous person that was manufactured by this society and the other is a person of pure compassion, love and joy that I consider the true me. The undamaged self that is trying to heal.

Oh pur-fuckin-lease cry us a godamn fucking river why dont ya.
You were lucky enough to be born into one of the most prosperous nations on earth and you want to blame that fact on you becoming a total and utter fuck up? Boo-fucking-hoo. Take some responsibility, and own up to the fact that you're a fuck-up.
Guess what. I'm a total fuck up too. But I thank the ever living fuck that I was born in a country that could accommodate such a fuck up as me. I can be an unemployed drunk, yet still have a roof over my head, hot and cold running water and food on my fucking plate. And you think you have a reason to whine? Grow fucking up.
If I'm being harsh it's because I live into this same privileged world you were born into but I recognise, and I'm gratefull for that fact.
Oh, but...
yeah>
