    I think everyone knows it’s ridiculous.

    For some the monarchy is a living museum, they don’t have to like it, they just find it interesting.

      The most expensive museum ever. Just what he’s wearing in that pic has a monetary value of more than the combined wealth of your extended family.

      Imagine how much better the world would be if the wealth and land holdings (a sixth of the surface of the entire planet) belonged to the people in stead of the most privileged family in existence.

        While I get your point the royal bullshit would just be placed in a museum similar to the royal regalia of the HRE or Lombardy. But yeah theyd probably be better off being kept as exclusive museum pieces rather than being put on the head of some inbred dipshit every once in a while.
