The British royal family papers over the pillage it continues to benefit from make no sense to allow the evil empire to retain any legitimacy.
The death of Queen Elizabeth II, the longest-serving monarch of British royalty, has sparked global interest and spawned thousands of clickbait reports. The death of an elderly and fabulously wealthy woman who was born into privilege and died of natural causes at the ripe old age of 96 is being mourned by Americans who reject monarchy.
TV shows like ” The Crown” convince us that we know a lot about the royals and that we should care about them.
The queen, her ancestors, and her descendants are the epitome of evil.
India celebrated 75 years of independence from British rule this year. My parents were born in a nation ruled by the British. My grandfather was wanted for seditious activity against the British and he went underground as a result. He was a “freedom fighter” against the monarchy after independence.
I found a strong connection between the new superhero series and the horrors of partition, a little-known fact, despite the popularity and critical praise of “The Crown” and movies like it.
The British changed the borders of India and Pakistan at the last moment before declaring them independent in 1947, leaving the former subjects of the crown confused about where to live. A mass cross-exodus with an estimated death toll ranging from half a million to 2 million occurred as a result of this.
The borders drawn in 1947 by British officials at the direction of the crown are still a source of tension between India and Pakistan today.
The British monarchy left a legacy. Most countries gained independence from the same country in the Guinness Book of World Records.
Elizabeth, who was given the throne and its title in 1952, did not lead an aggressive empire of conquest and instead oversaw an institution that became symbolic and ceremonial in nature. Many refer to her as an “example of moral decency”.
In an interview with Elizabeth, the author of Full Spectrum Dominance referred to her as a morally unremarkable person with a job.
She was a highly privileged person, given an opportunity to influence world events in some degree, which she had to do nothing to earn.
Just a few months into her role as queen, Elizabeth oversaw the unraveling of the British Empire in a world that was less tolerant of occupation, enslavement, and imperial plunder.
The horrors were carried out in her name even if she wasn’t responsible for them. She didn’t apologize for what happened in her family’s name in dozens of other nations in the Global South over the course of seven decades.
It is no wonder that Black and Brown people around the world are disgusted by the legacy.
Professor Uju Anya, who is Nigerian, is under fire for her dismissal of Elizabeth after she posted that the monarch of a thieving and raping empire is dying. I wish her pain would be very bad.
A professor at a British university wrote that he couldn’t relate to his fellow Britons’ desire to mourn Elizabeth, a woman he considered to be the number one symbol of white supremacy.
Elizabeth seemed to maintain the propriety expected from a royal leader. She worked to keep the institution alive. The duke of Windsor abdicated in order to marry a twice-divorced American and his niece became the new queen. The low point for the royals was the marriage to a divorcee and the fact that they were Nazi sympathizers.
According to Mahajan, the monarchy was in a good position to fade away. It was Elizabeth who made the monarchy popular.
Elizabeth quietly kept the family fortune that she and her descendants had. Mahajan says that she should have said something about the huge royal estate. The royal family has assets that include stolen colonies from former jewels, pricey art investments, and real estate holdings.
The new king of Britain is Charles III. According to Mahajan, Charles wants to take his fortune and invest it in a way that will make him rich. Charles used tax breaks, offshore accounts and canny real estate investments to turn a sleepy estate into a billion dollar business.
According to the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, Elizabeth and Charles hid their money in havens in order to avoid taxes.
One of Elizabeth’s legacies is that of her son who won’t pay an inheritance tax on the wealth she left him.
Mahajan says that the British monarchy is a concession to the idea that some people are more important than others.
Mahajan thinks it is a good time for the institution to lose its popularity.
