I wonder why royalists ignore this part of history

I'm not sure who those other two might be,
But Hitler's mustache is plain to see.
Your description makes them sound regal and grand,
But a more vile man, history could not withstand.

At first, he fooled the world with ease,
But his true nature, was eventually seized.
Until that fated day many had heard,
That he was a fine man, most absurd!

For it's not always easy just to know,
When to shake hands or when to say no.
Sometimes we're misled by those in power,
And caught up in circumstances that are most sour.

So let's not judge those royals of the past,
For mistaken hands shaken that didn't last.
We can't see the pressure that they were under,
And their hearts may very well have been full of thunder.

Let's focus on the lessons which we can learn,
And strive for a better world, in turn.
With empathy and understanding as our guide,
We'll build a brighter future, side by side.

@DrRiddler Very well written but I still have to disagree. There is no need for royalty anymore and no matter how much real political power they have they will always have economic and diplomatic power and are extremly classist.
@Gloomy
I did not claim that royalty is necessary or just,
Just that we should not judge others based on the pasts disgust.
They are still humans, raised in a strange way,
And they should be treated fair without much dismay.
