It still blows my mind that Americans think the British monarchy has any political power. Just go and at least give a cursory glance at the wikipedia, before you spout out this drivel.

No one said it does. You are a bell end, and you are triggering yourself with your own moronic beliefs. Everything I said still applies without the strawman bullshit you attached to it. Kindly extricate yourself.

Firstly, I've had at least two people saying they are now so...

Secondly, which moronic beliefs are those?

Thirdly, we're in a thread talking about the British monarchy in particular. Though you may have been talking about Royalty in general, it's pretty important to bring up the fact the Britain has a constitutional monarchy, and is thus in no way a tyranny. So you can can have Royalty separate from the concept of tyranny.

Naturally. You can have monarchy without tyranny too.

which moronic beliefs are those?

The belief that I think the British "royalty" have powder.

I have already explained why it was fairly reasonable of me to assume you did believe that.

But almost certainly she is. The mad lad is enchanted by the perceived courage and daring of reckless corrupted girls.

Queen Victoria was a junkie recluse too. Unlike most royalty, her son Edward was actually a very intelligent and effective tyrant and in the late 1800s set everything up for WWI and it's sequel WWII though he didn't live to see it.
