The royals do not bother me, but eventually, they will be abolished.
In your opinion, HOW MUCH LONGER do you think the royals will last?
20 years? 50? 100? 200? 500? 1000?
Give your reason why.

when brits are given free speech and no repercussions for criticizing royals.
Because the royals control the brit social system, and they exercise that control ruthlessly. All critics are ostracized; some lose their chance for promotion at work, others get demoted and sometimes even fired, although nothing is said that the reason is because they spoke out against royals. Others simply give up and move out of britain to the US. Thats how the royals keep their power and their money, making the hapless brits pay for their support. Bringing in more money by their being around? Sure, but who gets most of it? They do, by selling all sorts of junk with their pictures on it.
They have one hand in every brit's pocket and the other hand over every brit's mouth.

Are you suitable to modern-day life? some could answer particular, some no. as a remember of certainty that the British Monarchy are the proper of the Warrior and spiritual castes of British Society. You eliminate the Monarchy and somebody else will fulfil those roles because of the fact they're nonetheless suitable in modern-day life. perhaps no longer for you, yet for others they're. between the themes of cutting-edge (and previous) societies is they do no longer seem to be sparkling, there are various stuff that the Monarchy does that we don't hear approximately. only because of the fact the well-known of they're effect won't be able to be quantified would not advise they could desire to be axed. this is tantamount to firing a notably sensible man or woman in a branch because of the fact on a spreadsheet apparently like they produce no gross revenues ie downsizing. i for my area don't be conscious of no remember if the Monarchy is a sturdy or a bad element, IMHO maximum issues are a diffused mix of the two. i'm going to flow away you with this question. in case you probably did a great deed/sequence of deeds and the British u . s . a . presented to reward you with a Knighthood from the Monarchy, could you settle for it?

I dont think it will last after the Queen now or the next one of those boys becomes King. Its kind of like a fading fad, but its not like they really have any power there just Queen or King for publicity and stuff.

They are a dog and pony show at the moment. They will be got rid of when they embarass the country enough. That couldn't be far off.
