    I’m in favor of royal exploration therapy in the meantime, just so he can understand all his options. We’ll ask relevant questions like:

    • Do you think about your title when you masterbate?

    • Were you ever touched inappropriately as a child?

    • What role do you enjoy in sex?

    • Does your royal… confusion stem from how it was modeled in your family?

    • Do you get aroused at the thought of suppressing peasant uprisings?

    • Are you aware that you’ll never be a real leader? You’ll never be valid without becoming authoritarian and suppressing free speech. You can always desist at any time, but there will be irreversible damage if you change your mind too late.

    People have fought many wars to not have to recognize kings. We’re standing on their shoulders. Maybe the UK will catch up someday. In the meantime, let’s dethrone ALL of the billionaires.

      I’ve heard HRT (head removal therapy) has been massively successful in transitioning monarchies to democracies

    Take all your overgrown infants away somewhere
    And build them a home, a little place of their own
    The Fletcher Memorial
    Home for Incurable
    Tyrants and Kings

    And they can appear to themselves everyday
    On closed circuit TV
    To make sure they’re still real
    It’s the only connection they feel

    – Roger Waters, The Fletcher Memorial Home

    Even in the early 1980s, some of us bleeding hearts and artists saw and knew.
