I am not sorry

That I do not wish to watch the funeral of the Queen ....why is it on every channel in the United States?

Can someone explain this to me like we didn't fight a war to leave the rule of a King and steal the land from Natives?

You're not alone. I've watched/read very little about the royal transition. Elizabeth is out, Charles is in. Got it.

I have many British friends and have had this conversation with them directly. I simply do not understand how we have divinely anointed monarchies in 2022. I don't get it.

And I don't mean to take anything away from Elizabeth. I understand that she was a good person and did her people proud. I get it. But still, by the simple fact that she held the position means that she accepts that she is "royal" (whatever-the-hell that means) and we are not. Personally, I reject that concept.
