Queen Elizabeth II | 1926-2022 | Rest in Peace

[Red the Bear]

The fact that you think a person needs political power in order for people to find actions they may take rephrensible is strange.

That's the whole point, they haven't taken any major ones for several centuries now.

Please, this cannot be allowed here. For gods sake someone has passed away, this is not right mods. I know this poster has a longstanding history here, but this is not right. I can't be the only one that thinks this?

It's time for you to rise to the title of Redcafe's favourite German poster. No pressure

I completely disagree that it is time to get rid of the monarchy. We should never have let them back after Charles I. As parasites they make the Glazers look like Willy Wonka.

The right wing tend to be fairly supportive of the monarchy. The left wing is mixed.

I'm not pro monarchy myself but at the same time it's not an issue which I particularly care much for either and there are more pressing issues affecting the country which need to be tackled first.

Charles will still have enough support for the monarchy to carry on I imagine. Maybe though we'll see a bit more modernisation and I'm sure some changes will be invoked too, of some sort.

But whether I agree with the monarchy or not. Universally she's always been recognised by her peers as being a warm and kind lady. No doubt there probably are bad things she's done too.

My opinions and views aside though, I know she was held dearly by many of my neighbours and thus feel her death should be respected, for those who loved her, if not for ourselves.


Side note - I had an argument with my gf over it because I said I wasn't particularly bothered by the death and don't agree with monarchies. And most importantly I was worried football would be cancelled and that an upcoming trip to London may also end up clashing with some royalty shite which I cba with it.
She holds the Queen a bit more dearly than me though and don't think she likes that it's like water of a ducks back for me.
So again I respect that she's dead and send my condolences as she was quite endearing. But as someone who's not invested in the monarchy, I'm not particularly bothered.

Thanks for your insight.

Yes. I think banning Hansi was over the top.

 

[hasanejaz88]

Wow so Hansi got banned for that post? All the shit that's written about countries, religions and races and a post insulting the monarchy results in a ban. English nationalism at it's best.

 

[villain]

Was he really banned for that comment?

 

[GhastlyHun]

Have you seen the original post?

The way you keep inflating it you'd think the original post accused her of decades long protection of a pedophile or something.

would be a fecking travesty if its a perm ban for that

 

[Red the Bear]

This is where I am with it.

If anything, the monarchy have been a wonderful lightning rod, attracting flack for stuff that elected representatives, soldiers, civil servants and a large amount of the populace supported and were complicit to, and immensely profited from.

Yeah pretty much , the British parliament as an institution doesn't to get half the flack their monarchy does.

Hold on, many people all over the world are mourning the Queen's death. I find it bizzare that my cousin who has never gone more than 100 miles her entire life is mourning the Queen's death, all the way from India. Since she's a close relative, I know that she gained nothing from England. You can't expect everyone to mourn the Queen, which is fairly a simple truth to digest.

I don't mourn her death as it won't affect me , just find the criticisms fascinating, that's all.

Both ends of the spectrum have completely lost their minds and their collective heads need a good fecking wobble. The world isn't black and white -- it never has been and never will be.

Yeah, the internet was a mistake I guess

It's ridiculous.

One of the greatest people to ever exist. RIP.

This forum owned by an Irishman (well I assume he's a man)

 

[Reditus]

Have you seen the original post?

Very harsh banning

People have a right to have negative feelings towards the royal family

 

[2mufc0]

Once again, this forum owned by an Irishman (well I assume he's a man)

I guess it depends on who the mod was who banned him.

 

[GDaly95]

Hansi thought it was the funniest thing ever when we appointed Rangnick and even though he was obviously right in the end I still resent him for it so.. good riddance.

 

[Vidyoyo]

Fair point

 

[2mufc0]

Trust me there's been a lot worse posted in this forum.

 

[Fanta Stick]

Now we will never know who would write a letter to the Queen on her 100th birthday.

 

[fergies coat]

Not her biggest fan, far from it, but rip.

#JusticeForHansi.

 

[2mufc0]

From the outisde she seemed a very nice woman and have full sympathy for her family.

But she's lived a very long life, a privileged and luxurious one too, I don't see why a random stranger would be shedding tears over it. People shouldn't also be obliged to like her either.

 

[ThehatchetMan]

Now we will never know who would write a letter to the Queen on her 100th birthday.

It was me mate. I was meant to be doing it.

How far ahead does she sign birthday cards? Presume some are already in the post for the coming days. When will Charles sign his first birthday card

Saying good riddance to someone who's just died...I don't think so.

But it's fine, people can laugh at me, call me what they want because I didn't like the fact a poster reacted that way over a death.

If you have strong feelings against a person or in this case a monarchy and you have a valid reason I see no,issue with it

Would you be ok if Donald Trump croaked and people said same?

it's the Queen though, people were always going to react this way because people hate the monarchy..

if you don't like it I would advise avoiding the internet for the next couple of weeks
