Rest In Peace 🇬🇧 Queen Elizabeth II Passing

Yeah, it does. At least she went peacefully of old age than instead of some insidious disease like cancer, though. I'm thankful for that.

I lost my mother last year, a few days after my 33rd birthday.

Long story short, it was a highly aggressive form of brain cancer that only roughly 250 people in the UK develop per year. She won the "fuck you, love from Life" lottery.

Her last days had her as basically a shell of who she was cognitively and physically.

I'm glad Her Majesty didn't suffer such a fate.

What you call the Left these days are pretty much Center, Center-Left, or even Center-Right. The line has moved drastically and far.

Harry missed her last few hours: while he arrived as quickly as he could, it was still after she'd died. I get the feeling he won't forgive himself, and be forgiven by the other Royals, for that.

Body language experts are also saying that he's checked out of the marriage mentally, or he's so broken that he just doesn't care any longer.

Well, that's what he gets for thinking with his dick and fucking/marrying a high-class prostitute -- sorry, "Yacht Girl" and a D List, toxic, racist, and sexist actress.
Ahh. Yes. Centrist. Thank you

This, please this.

Biden needs to just come in, privately say what he needs to for the royals, and takes his seat.

If he decides to try to use the Queens funeral as a Midterm/War speech...just pray that doesn't happen.
Any sort of gaffe will turn the British public completely against him -- well, except for the Leftards, of course, but who gives a shit what they think? They're only good for Soylent Green and zombie bait in the case of a Walking Dead scenario. :p

Even if a lot of people had issues with the Royal Family on the whole, they loved Her Majesty.

You're overblowing the issue. The fact is that as an American someone can respect the Queen and The British Monarchy for what they have done for the UK as well as their traditions...

That being said that doesn't mean that these people want the U.S. to ever have a monarch or a monarchy in general, nor are they promoting it. Respecting the traditions of other nations is important and if you feel otherwise look to the greatest asshole that has ever been elected president (Woodrow Wilson) for reasons as to why you should, I feel that American Traditions involving governance are for strictly Americans or those who willingly by choice choose to adopt them and shouldn't be forced down other's throats or vice versa, otherwise you end up with the shitty world we currently live in where every other person is dead set on demanding every other country be like their favorite country/system of choice.

You should respect the UK's choices and they should respect ours.
Oh, no I don't believe we should impose our values on others at all. If other nations want a monarchy, dictatorship, Republic, Sharia law, etc. I do not judge them. I believe each nation should be free to have self determination and pave their own internal course. But that's diffrent than saying oh this is the best system, this represents us.

Let me say this to all the British people as an American I sympathize with the loss of your queen, I hope that your new king will do a good job as head of state, and maintain the respectability of your people's traditions.

Not all leftists. I'm rather partial to the Swedish and Finnish model.
Umm those are worse than the American model. They are more liberal than us, they allow migrant rapists in, and even male liberal politicains who are raped, feel bad for their rapist getting deported. They are like 5 to 10 years more "progressive" than us.

In fairness I think he means a more generous welfare state which is funded by higher taxes and an ironically freer market.

That's so ignorant I'm ashamed to be on the same continent as you.

Not the first time you've posted similar here. You're a Shite Poster aren't you?

They are more progressive yet more conservative than us. They have a monarch as their head of state, and an American Monarchy would never last, but we would rather hang ourselves than have our conservatives be the equivalent to the average Democrat. In ways, he is right, but it's off topic and something I highly suggest getting off of, this is about her Majesty the (former) Queen and his Majesty Charles III.

If the crazy Leftists with their runaway egalitarianism were to win, wealthy people like him would be put up against a wall and shot for being better off than others. Whether he helps or opposes them now would make no difference, eventually they would kill him either way.
This is about the funeral of the Queen not Bezos and his dictator friends

I'm American, so no we aren't on the same continent. If you are American why do you say shite? Overe here it's shit. I don't know if you are a tryhard or ignorant. But yes, Swedish liberalism is not the topic here so I'll just PM you that stuff.

Bitching about how someone writes or speaks English is just you being an asshole.

I know that @ATP (Polish) and @Agent23 (Bulgarian) don't have English as a native language. There's also a TS forumite who has Brazilian Portugese or Italian as the language they first learned.

I don't know his username off the top of my head.

Goddamn it! I may not be one of her citizens, but I miss her already.
Yeah. It feels weird honestly without the Queen. Speaking as an American, she was such an omnipresent figure on the British and world stage. It almost felt like she was an institution that had been there since time immemorial. I know everyone made jokes about her being immortal, but for her to suddenly die like this was quite shocking to me.

I mean she did recover from Covid despite her advanced age. Though I'm not surprised that her health took a turn for the worst after Prince Philipp passed away. Its pretty common for one person to lose heart and die not long after their spouse passes. They're filled with grief and it eats away at them.

I actually noticed a similar thing with my grandmother actually. After my grandfather passed, she was inconsolable and then like 8 months later her health took a turn for the worst and she followed him to the grave.

as our resident Monarchist and British experts
I mean I'm not really a monarchist. I more or less respect it as a legitimate institution worthy of existing alongside republics and other forms of government. The fact that its lasted so long and in various forms, demands respect in and of itself.

Though I'm far from a British expert though lol.

As far as I understand the monarchy, its more of a symbol of long-standing political and socio-cultural continuity with the Crown personifying British/English traditions going back over 1,000 years as a contiguous institution. In this regard its occupied the niche that the Japanese monarch had.

Though honestly I feel that some of the controversy directed towards Prince King Charles III is a bit unwarranted (I'm not talking about the stuff about Dianna). I get that the monarch is supposed to be apolitical, but people lost their crap when Charles said some arguably non-controversial things. Things like talking about how soul-less modern architecture is compared to old historical designs shouldn't be the things that get people upset.

And considering how feckless Parliament has been with how they're running the country into the ground, I honestly wish that the Monarch would actually exercise some of its power or influence to arrest such a decline. If you look at the modern UK a lot of its old cultural institutions are degrading. Anglican Theology for example has become a mess with the Church looking more likely that its going to die out in terms of membership and adherents. The recent progressive lurching of the church has caused a schism as well.
