You moved to money after it was pointed out they have no “power” and needed a different argument.
Your “grounds” don’t exist… they don’t pay them money… do you even know your point?
And again, thanks for proving all of points explicitly, you are the exact person my comments are directed at, you don’t comprehend how our monarchy works!
I didn't need to move to money at all. I explicitly noted that financial concerns were just a bonus on top of the real reason the monarchy needs to go, which is that it's an illegitimate institution. The 'get a job' bit was a rhetorical flourish.
More of your fallacies and goalposts moving….
How is it an illegitimate institution when it holds no power?
Your rhetorical flourish just shows you have no concept of the issues at hand mate… you clearly don’t comprehend how the monarchy functions and are only here to argue your bias and rhetoric.
If you’re not here to have a conversation, why the hell are you here?
