The only good royal is dead royal.

Being a monarch or nobility of any kind is a crime against humanity. And yes, this applies to all, no exceptions. I don't care how "constitutional" a monarch is. No one should have inheritable legal status or power. Inherited wealth is bad enough. Every king or noble should have to give up their title or give up their head.

People upset about the monarchy don't have any real problems in their lives.

Congrats, you must have a real easy life if you're doing the revolutionary cosplay thing over the fucking monarchy LOL.

I would argue for the heads, all of them, otherwise you get the Anastasia problem. Take all the toys away and there is nothing to fight about.
