It's just chat. Like being in a virtual pub. Royalty is something most Brits have an opinion on, but mostly (ime) not a massively extreme opinion. The monarchy is an ever-present fact of UK life, but has little everyday impact - queen's death and netflix/tabloid hoo-ha apart. They are not going anywhere anytime soon even if thousands took to the streets.

This is an interesting take. Why do you think so? I am making a silly comparison, but no-one would have thought that despite the strong foothold that the Church has in Spain, same sex marriages would have ever been a thing.
I would think that if something similar (i.e: the reversal of long standing institutions/dogmas) were to happen in the UK, it will be in this day and age

Can someone explain to a non-native the purpose of writing endless pages (and sometimes pointless comments) regarding something you have the uttermost disdain of?
Perhaps it's a quintessential British thing of complaining "in private", but it's not like anything said in here has the pretence, 0r the substance, of actually making a difference (i.e: the abolishment of an archaic institution).
Genuinely interested and not an inflammatory/provocative question
