Fuck the queen

Breaking news, a 90 year old woman died, who could have seen this coming...

Hi Mister!
I'm going to call-out some of this now, if I may...?

Breaking news, a 90 year old woman died, who could have seen this coming...

The Queen was 96 and yes, we all saw this coming, as she was getting frailer and frailer with every public appearance, and those were becoming fewer and further between.

First, if you are under her rule and complain about the destruction of your country, why, now, with her passing, would you act all stoic and pretend to mourn the loss of......a cunt...

Well, I did live "under her rule" and probably did complain about the monarchy on occasion, and I was also the one who posted the announcement bar here at RN3 as well as being the one who started the thread here in breaking news regarding her deteriorating health just before that, so...
"Why?" Was I "acting all stoic or pretending to mourn"? Was I actually upset and mourning for real?

No, actually.

I was making an announcement, about an event that the vast majority of people would agree has worldwide significance, and I did it within about one minute of the news officially breaking here. (*Pretty slick I reckon!)
There was no blowing smoke up her arse or insinuation of any emotion on my part whatsoever.

I think my actual statement was "The QUEEN HAS DIED. (Official)" and I haven't posted anything else regarding the matter since then.

Second, if you are not under her rule, why does anyone give this more than a single days news cycle of concern, for most countries it's meaningless, for some countries, like the US, we literally lost thousands of lives to tell these fucks to piss off. Why, as an american, should I care when a monarch from a country we fought for freedom against dies?

I'm guessing because she was a person of huge international significance?
One of the "richest" and most influential people on the planet.
"Newsworthy" if you will.
Although, to be fair... no one ever actually asked you personally to care.

I find it amusing and sad, when "strong" voices that speak out against their leaders.........come to the defense of their recent passed leaders that fucked them over.

Pathetic.

If I call someone out as a piece of shit when they are alive, I'm not going to be laying roses at their grave if they pass. Have some god damn consistency for gods sake.

Not sure who that's aimed at? The media maybe? Didn't they always bow down to The Queen / the Monarchy anyway?
There are some political leaders and public figures I suppose, who dislike the idea of a Monarchy, but acknowledge the efforts or achievements of a deceased monarch out of respect, or possibly to protect their own position by cow-towing to the high brows a bit, but I don't think we've done anything like that here at RN3?? Have we??

For clarification:
I announced The Queens deteriorating health here at RN3, and I announced her death here & posted the announcement bar at the top of the main page too. But that was for information purposes only, and the bar will be removed in a few days (as we always do with "significant news" announcements).
(*It's sort of one of my jobs here as a "VP of Admin" to keep members informed of significant events.)

I personally had no time for the monarchy and I still don't.
I will not mourn for her passing and I will not celebrate the ascendancy of King Charles III.

If your post/attack was aimed at other parties only, then I apologise for my response(s), but the specific target of your comments was not made very clear, and since I was the one who brought the subject to RN3's attention, then I felt that it was my "duty" to respond! Pun intended!
