To those who aren't aware of the anti-monarchy sentiment or why, this is a good informative article regarding the history surrounding it

and why many have mixed feelings about her passing. Most people don't know this, and tbh there's more than what's in this article.

Can't imagine that there are very many people who are not aware that many have mixed feelings about the monarchy in general and even Elizabeth in particular. Only the most blinkered monarchist little Englander could fail to realize that there are people in many former colonies and dependencies might have negative views about how Britain conquered and ran them.

After all not every one is a monarchist in Britain either.

@ninalanyon There has been one here I was thinking about when posting this who ironically said that people who have anti-monarchy sentiments are ignorant of history..

@Ryannnnnn

people who have anti-monarchy sentiments are ignorant of history

What on earth did they mean by that? One could just as meaningfully say:

people who have pro-monarchy sentiments are ignorant of history
