The guy was born into an anachronistic system where he has had absolute privilege and his family indulged in political interference (a lot to their own benefit) despite claiming to just be impartial figureheads.

Last summer a football player had to campaign to keep free school meals going through the summer so millions of kids in poverty could fucking eat.

So what if some privilege cunt has arse cancer?

Lmfao apparently it's "bootlicking" to point out a criminally online take. I, for one, don't think people should be judged based on circumstances out of their control, like where or when they were born. There are plenty of reasons to dislike the dude, like no really there are so god damn many, but him being born into it is not one of them.

I'm not even saying you shouldn't be pleased to see his death, just that making jokes about the suffering that occurs from cancer is a take so distant from reality of course you'll only see it online. If you are genuinely pleased by hearing about someone's cancer diagnosis, you should really do some self evaluation.

If you think him dying from that will purge the UK of the monarchy, I have a bridge to sell you. There are actual things you could do to help end it, the original comment I replied to isn't one.
