Another Royal Baby on the way

RE: Another Royal Baby on the way
(November 30, 2016 at 11:30 am)FatAndFaithless Wrote: I'd probably agree with most of that, yeah.  To an American (me), it just seems like a celebrity culture on steroids, with a literally invulnerable revenue stream and all the responsibility of a glorified rubber stamp.  Not to say that members of the royal family haven't done good things, served in the armed forces, etc - but those things are good on their own, and I don't understand the people that think being a royal somehow adds to the merit, when perfectly normal Brits do that stuff every day without the unlimited wealth.

The problem with the royal family is that in order to oust them you'd have to play a dick move to do it.

Harry for instance is a fucking legend. I think practically everyone loves him. However I do not like the royal family as a thing. Individual members though, they're humans aren't they? Some of them are probably alright.

I'd like to see it gone, but in order to do so we'd have to literally violate their rights to achieve it I think. Unless it gets to a point where the royal family voluntarily gives up their privilege and status, someone's going to have to take it from them.
