Hopefully send them the British equivalent of Goodwill? :woman_shrugging: Everyone needs a fancy hat now and again!

But yeah… people are kind of obsessed with this stuff, and it doesn’t matter, because I’m assuming that there is protocol in place to deal with things like her personal estate. Meanwhile, there is real shit happening in this world that needs all of our attention.

I hope she’s laid out for display in her chroma-key green dress. Could you imagine the memes?

Yeah, and I’m fine with attention paid to fun trivia, but with her and the institution she represented, I’m not fine with how much shit is getting overlooked and ignored.

I guess I’m like the child pointing out that the emperor has no clothes, bla bla bla…

Yeah… often times, the idea that one must not speak ill of the dearly departed who happen to be powerful people, is intended to cover up a whole host of bad things… I am not looking forward to the white washing of Kissinger, for example…

I think plenty of people agree with you, so lots of people pointing out the emperor has not clothes! :laughing:

Oh! That reminds me… the land of your birth and my ancestors have some thoughts on the passing of Queen Lillibet…

This one is especially awesome…

But it was apparently posted months ago, and not after her death… Still.

Have they no shame? That screen was reserved for capitalistic purposes and suddenly their money is no good? Who will stand up for crass commercialism?

Can’t we just dump Kissinger and Cheney and Rove and Bannon and all those shits in a hole, cover it up and never go back to check if they’re still alive?

Then we’d never have to “mourn” any of them :roll_eyes:

That’s such a relief; you know it’s almost impossible to tell parody from tragic reality these days…

My point was actually that’s there’s no where to hide from the flag shagging BS, but sure, I hope they got paid for that?

Some folks on Irish Twitter want to forget that some Irish people benefited from the Empire.
