Why do Brits love their Royal Family?

Why do they put up with it? Do they see it as their last scraps of their Empire?
People mention Tourism but would people stop visiting Windsor Castle or Buckingham Palace if they abolished it? People still go to Versailles in Paris.
With Charles being a Cuck it could struggle for a few years but they seem to love William and Kate.
Hopefully Meghan destroys it from the outside.

The bigger question is why do some Americans love them.

As subjects they are lesser beings than non-subjects like us and the royal family

Why do you hate their royal family? Why do you care if they love it?
People in England see connections to history and tradition as important. Those connections help foster feelings of unified national pride.
We seem to have run all over that concept here in America, to our detriment.

I wish we had a monarchy here. Can’t be worse that leaving it up the average American citizen’s vote.

We all know King George III and Queen Victoria. Why did people care about them?
Since Oliver Cromwell's time the Monarchy has been constitutional. Yet few PMs are remembered and few heads of state are forgotten.

This has to be one of the funniest things I’ve seen on here. Most Brit’s don’t give a shite and their history ended because of us.
They act like they care or out and about because everything is focused around this and they can hop a train to go participate. Can’t do that here and we never would.

Dude Americans idolize the Kardashians/Jenners. We aint got room to muhfrickin judge anyone else.

Because there is a ton of money tied up in when you consider the peerages that come from the Royal lineage.
The top of the monarchy brings in a bunch of tourist money, but the Dukes, Viscounts, Lords, etc. are fully engrained in the fabric of English society. Getting rid of the Monarchy likely trickles down from there and it’s a lot more complex than just the King and Queen.

They bring in 99% of the UK's tourism dollars.

Because it's a historical institution and brings in money for the British economy.

That narcissistic bitch will be divorced and marginalized in another couple of years. Shes as phony as a $20 bill from Billy Cannon's wallet.

It's old, outdated, and time to end it.
No one should be born into that level of wealth and status.
You have one family member that should be in jail for association with Maxwell and Epstein.

It's their equivalent of the U.S. flag. It's a symbol of national values and greatness.

This - these threads are polluting the OT and turning it into a women's beauty salon. Let's see some chicks in tiny shorts and forget about those ugly frickers.
