No, I like the family that never has to do any work due to wealth built up by centuries of exploitation and theft. They're so charming!

They are the UKs mascots. They never have to do any work but they are under constant scrutiny by tabloids. Like any other celebrity basically but they are the main focus of British tabloids.

I never cared for the queen mum or prince Harry. William and Charles are cool.

Feel bad for Harry now, but tbh he never fit the mold. I think they are outdated pageantry that needs to be done away with

I agree that is silly when you really think about it but people like that stuff. Kings and Queens and castles, etc.

The British government could also abolish them at any time if they wanted to so they need to remain popular to continue existing

I have a fascination and appreciation for them in the same way that I would have an appreciation for a mummy or an expensive ancient statue in a museum.

Don't really respect them as an entity though

Indifference, mostly.

The Spanish royal family is more interesting anyway, given the neat screwjob Juan Carlos pulled on Franco's military junta.

Wasn't the modern royal family built upon the backs of slaves? They completely condoned and sanctioned the African slave trade. They are literally living monuments to a time when slavery was the norm. How is it that Americans finally got their act together to take down statues of slave owners but England is perfectly okay with keeping the royal family. Disgusting.

less so, given they outlawed slavery before we did and didn't fight a civil war to do it.

Well then, unless I'm misunderstanding something, I don't see how they can be blamed for slavery.

Pretty much this. I don't think all members of the family are to blame for what the racism and other issues.

i can MAYBE see this being correct. IE maybe the queen herself is innocent and just old, and Prince Charles is the true evil there.
