Stop acting like she was just some old lady playing dress up....She was the figurehead of one of the most brutal colonizing forces the world has ever seen. She did nothing to right the wrongs of the past. So it leaves to reason ,she was comfortable living off the blood and sweat of the black ppl who were slaughtered for her to live a good life.
True to at least some extent.
I don't recall any record of her ever actually actively issuing orders that led to Britain engaging in activities that ultimately led to the colonization of another country tho.
She did however maintain the colonial status of quite a few countries in addition to relinquishing control over others, this one included in the latter.
What the world has to do to is keep an eye on that wrinkled bleached raisin that taking over. No telling what crazy ideas rolling around in he head. For all we know he may want to restart their old habit of colonizing once again.
If this is the case then why do they exist anymore, they literally serve no purpose and powers are limited which I'm sure can be absorbed into other positions similar to that of the president here but is whether the taxpayers wish to wake up and say enough is enough.DMan7 wrote:88sins wrote:hover11 wrote:We still talking about this old fart.

Does the monarch hold as much power anymore as they did hundreds of years ago? I doubt that old raisin could do anything or have influence over anything even within England itself.

Familiar royalty across all kingdoms are based on bloodlines. They are the descendants of the Nephilim or ancestral "gods" of that culture.Mmoney607 wrote:Can someone explain how this family came to be royal?

To be paraded around for so long she must have been pumped full with extra embalming fluid and then to be buried in a lead lined coffin so your juices remain contained forever . It's like do her a favor and just bury the old bat already like everyone else

The same argument going on right now with the British Museum's "purchased" artifacts from conquest lands and the same manifest rightful inheritance in referenced pop culture movies like "Black Panther."
No way can a few thousand pounds worth of gold and gemstones be equivalent to the amount of blood, life and resources extracted from conquered lands since the discovery of the New World, the majority of which was directed to build Europe central with all their grand architecture, culture and navies. There was a huge hidden cost to all that, and that's what people are really griping about. The amount of wealth extracted from India alone, and look at the perceived and real squalor that large parts of India still experience today. Same story of all post-colonial territories. Most of these modern wars in those places are because of lines on a map drawn by Colonial powers (much of the Middle East, Afghanistan, early India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, Kashmir, most modern African civil wars) who then quietly exited after raping everything they could from those lands.
However the underlying point that people aren't understanding is the modern Separation of Powers and that the Crown has no decision and cannot interfere with the elected government's policies. But that they still have the most important duties for the government to work. Their modern role is to use influence over international politics to bring attention to activist policies like the environment and global vaccination and other global problems, and dedication to duty, as QE2 really did for all her life. They don't just sit around on a golden throne and eat cherry and mince pies all day. (Except our own current President who does nothing of the sort.) And again, this also means that they don't understand our own system in Trinidad, nor how any legislative democratic government in the world works.
