Tory Scum
About bloody time.
I have no beef against the man, Charles. He seems like a pretty progressive bloke, into environmental preservation, progressive urbal planning, engaged parenting. Good on him. But I believe in every fibre of my bones that there is no such thing as a "king" and that anyone who calls himself (or herself) such deserves to be hung by the people over whom they presume to rule.
Whether the people support their monarch, is certainly an important matter. If the dude were elected....if the people donated money (instead of paying taxes) for its support....if it did not endure through birthright alone....perhaps it would seem more palatable. However, in this day and age, where matters of economic and civil fairness are at the forefront of our struggles and governance, the idea of a man or a woman born to rule is truly sickening.
It is curious to me how Americans have this benevolent attitude, even respect, toward the British monarchy against which we were forced to shed blood for our very freedom. That little punk William and his Nazi-loving brother are descended from that insane scumbag George III who wanted America as his own posession. We fought and won becuase royalty is plain wrong, evil.
Two billion people around the world live on less than $2 a day. Children in America are hungry as their parents become disenfranchised from the American Dream by corrupt money men (and women) and their politician slaves. We throw public wealth to the bankers and to the wars of rich men (and women). Students in Britain are told to make do with less while some inbred moron who was born through the right vagina rides to theatre in a Rolls Royce.
Fuck royalty. And it looks like they'd better watch their backs.
