ROYAL WEDDING AND ROOTS OF HATE, AND SUBJUGATION – SHOULD YOU BE CELEBRATING?

If you loathe dictators, fascist regimes, subjugation, hate, discrimination, slavery, genocide, and the social caste system, why would you then be celebrating a royal wedding? If you do, you will then uphold those vestiges of hate and social mongering which royalty attempts to maintain.

So, on the eve of the royal wedding, the United Kingdom, its former colonies, member countries of its commonwealth and other parts of the world, millions of people are celebrating the upcoming wedding of “prince” William and Kate Middleton. Prince William of course being a member of the British royalty, and Kate Middleton, a “commoner” is soon to become part of the royal family. But, while the celebration begins, should we not contemplate on the ramifications of continuing with the charade of bowing to “royalty” and further perpetuate the myth of special privilege?”

Perhaps you may not be a British subject, but should you not still care about the consequences of this wedding, or, about the continuing preservation of royalty? Your answer should be yes. After all, we are all universal citizens inhabiting the same planet and are therefore, subject to the acts others. “No man is an island”, remember? You should further understand that the practices and the acts of monarchs have in fact affected most of the world. Today, each and every one of us continues to suffer, or at least feel the affects of direct acts by members of a monarchy or acts done in behalf of a monarchy. The very concept of special privilege by royalty and the subjugation of those underneath that special privilege, to this day, continue to shape our social, political and economic fabric.

What may you say? Royalty adds to culture fantasy and allows for children to dream about becoming a prince or a princess, or, that most present day monarchies are benign and may just be constitutional monarchies? Of course, reading or dreaming about benign fairytales is of no consequence, but in reality, the truth about monarchies is no fairytale. In addition, to say that constitutional monarchies no longer have absolute power and therefore remain only as ceremonial figures, would be akin to continue to revere a ruthless dictator, such as Joseph Stalin, the fascist Adolph Hitler, or Zimbabwe’s dictator Robert Mugabe - after they had left the reigns of power.

Thus, it should be noted that in many parts of the world, such as in Austria, Belgium, Bahrain, “Canada”, Denmark, Japan, Jordan, Monaco, New Zealand, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and others parts of the world, the monarchy continues to thrive and holds special privileges - at the expense of the populace . So I dare question: who the hell gave royals a certificate of special privilege? And just like many white folk were asking of President Obama to show his birth certificate to prove he was a bona fide American, it should be asked of the royals to prove a divine right or genetic proof that they deserve a special social, political or economic privilege.

History can only attest to the countless tribal societies which were decimated in behalf of powerful monarchies. In the Americas, entire indigenous societies were simply slaughtered to make room for European expansion. In Australia, aboriginal peoples were almost decimated into extinction. In Africa, in the name of a king or queen, human beings were hunted down to be taken as slaves for servitude and economic ventures for the new world. As a result of that, slavery flourished in the new British colony in North America. Even lynching of human beings became a practice in order to enforce a caste system - white over black.

As India became the property of the British monarchy, an insidious caste social system was instituted, based on shades of color – with the mother royal queen and new owner of India, unquestionably, being at the top of the social scale. Can we then not believe that today’s KKK or neo-Nazis formulated their race-based hate on the same principle as the royals have substantiated their racial or social strata?

In the region once known as Arabia and also under the rule of the British Kingdom, the new rulers could not supplant the local Muslim religion for Christendom. So, they divided the Muslim religion into two, one Shiite and the other, Sunni. As a consequence of the monarchial tactical divisiveness, it is no secret that countless lives continue to be lost through out the Middle East due to the religious difference imposed.

From the beginning, monarchies acquired their legitimacy by relying on human ignorance; people either accepted charismatic leaders who later made themselves kings, or as their rulers governed for long periods of time, their longevity and rule became a tradition. However, once the royalty became established within a given society, they claimed a divine right. In fact, royals cleverly aligned their authority with the will of God, making people believe that any attempt to defy the will of the monarchy would be tantamount to defying God. And as monarchies scoured the earth for new places to rule, one of their main weapons in conquering was Christendom, a religion that justified the monarchy’s rule and eased the transition for the conquered to obey the new king.

However, in today’s modern world in which science has mapped the entire human genome and has found no genetic differences, at least genetic traces that would make any human superior over another, still, royal families thrive under privileged political, economic and social circumstances – but can not morally or scientifically justify their special status. Moreover, royal families in many parts of the world are some of the wealthiest families in the world. But how did they become so rich? Certainly royalty is not known for their employability. Further, in most cases, they live in opulence while their counterpart commoners live marginally. And although in existing constitutional monarchies, the royals may not control the purse strings of the country, the royal families continue to live under taxpayer’s funded stipends covering most, or all of their living expenses, despite their the vast wealth they may already have.

In sum, it is not William or Kate who I personally condemn, but the system that supports their royal status. We must understand that it is the concept of royalty which is being promulgated in furtherance of supremacy. Is it too much for you to accept? Chew on it some more and read more history. However, while the winds of democracy are blowing even in places where they were not expected, the world demands a more egalitarian society, in which democracy reigns – not the royals. So why I ask, does royalty continue to propagate and millions of people celebrate? For those who may argue in defense of the monarchs, I may suggest that there can be no justification for their existence, either morally, politically, socially or otherwise. In fact, royalty and dictators belong in the annals of human ignorance. Dinosaurs came to and end - by divine will. But, how dare dictators or royals believe they deserve a role in governance without the democratic consent of the people? However, the nature of things has the last say so on this issue. Currently, a number of despised dictators are on the way out and the remainder on the list will soon have their end. In like circumstance, royalty must not sit on the throne, but should take their blue blood to the “loo.” But, if you still believe royalty deserves a special status in our human evolution, then you must also go to the loo, celebrate the royal wedding and take in the royal air – especially after a blue blood has taken a royal flush. Smell any difference?

ROYALTY must abdicate their archaic throne and get in line for the use of the commode.

By Joseph Chez

When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for the human race to dissolve the myth of the oldest political bandits who have assumed wealth and power over their subjects - under the phony declaration of divine providence. Neither nature nor God entitles any one person special descent or privilege.

We are at the door step of the 21st Century and it is self evident that all men are created equal. We have now mapped the genetics of many living species and we are close to mapping the entire human genome. Thus, there is irrefutable scientific evidence that all human beings are 99.9% biologically the same, with the remaining amount of variance accounting for regional and ongoing genetic mutations. Accordingly, the existence of monarchs and other royalty in today’s society is simply incongruent with reality. So we must ask: why royalty and monarchs remain with the privilege of governance or hold privileged and distinguished social titles, when they should also get in line with the rest of us, for use of the latrine?

Royalty or devoted followers may argue that such social titles are determined by special lineage. In the past, royals claimed direct lineage from “a” God. However, the Universal Creator has not publicly given notice of such royal preference. There is also the argument that royals have special bloodlines. Although, 21st Century science empirically shows that there is no blue blood in human beings, despite the fact that royal bloodlines do come close to genetic degeneration. And just like the horseshoe crab which truly has blue blood, royalty and the horseshoe crab are both living fossils. Notwithstanding, others would argue that present day monarchies exist at the pleasure of its subjects. Yes, but must society continues to accept the concept of special privilege in today’s egalitarian society? Must society accept such concept, when royalty was the building blocs of intolerance, colonization, social casting and slavery?

We know of course that much of the Western Hemisphere was claimed as property in the name of European monarchs. Christopher Columbus claimed the new world in the name of Spain’s Queen Isabella, which led to the decimation of indigenous peoples, their culture and religion. For English America, the Jamestown peninsula became the staging ground for the first English colony to have slaves brought from Africa by ships owned and operated by the “King’s men.” In the British dominion of India, a social caste system was established as a way for the Indians to understand and accept the concept of British royalty. In colonial Africa, the British Kingdom laid the ground work for separate social and economic relations that were based along racial and ethnic lines. These insidious practices culminated into an apartheid social system which now shames the conscience.

Written in stone and blood, history reminds us of European monarchs leading crusades into the land of the bible and saving the faith at the cost of foreign blood. When the British Kingdom replaced Turkish rule in 1922, one of its lasting ills was to divide the Arabs along ethnic lines by simply exploiting minor differences in their religious practices. To this date, conflict plagues the area between Sunni Muslims and Shia Muslims with yet untold consequences.

However, it is fair to say that today, few monarchs and so-called royals hold any governance in existing “kingdom” states, but they do play roles in ceremonial post. Nonetheless, the royal families in those countries continue to thrive with public funds such as in Spain and in the British Kingdom. However, even holding or being a ceremonial figure, is no longer acceptable in today’s world as it constitutes a de facto recognition of privileged labels and supporting a caste system. Royals today are supremacist in semi or official public roles and they have no place in this 21st Century.

For those royal fans and apologist, if you still believe Royalty deserve their self-appointed social titles or a privilege lifestyle at public expense, think again; ask yourself if royalty is biologically different or descend from divine providence. If you still do, I urge you to take a big whiff after a royal flush of the king or queen’s throne, and if you still think it smells divine, you probably are insane, believe in magic or you are royal fool. Wheeoow!
