Norge som republikk @republikk@oslo.town

@davidaugust Here’s a weird parallel: The King of Norway’s grandson has been investigated for raping multiple women and will soon end up in court. But rather than blame the institution of #monarchy for providing him with the social, economic and political protection that allowed him to commit such crimes, the populace’s reaction to date has been “oh, the poor king… it much be difficult for him…”

Can anyone share an argument* that justifies having a "President" (the replacement word for #King / single, #autocratic leader)? *Not historical, IE. because people were used to Kings and the revolutionaries trying to form the US needed the votes of the Tory / #monarchy apologists.

1939 Royal Tour: Trooping the Colour in Ottawa

During the 1939 royal tour, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth visited Canada. On May 20, Ottawa hosted the first Trooping the Colour ceremony on Victoria Day, marking the King's official birthday. This event reinforced Canada's ties to the monarchy on the eve of World War II. #Canada #VictoriaDay #RoyalTour #Monarchy #Ottawa

The Tsar addressed the officers also: “I thank you all, gentlemen, I thank you with my whole heart.” To Rostóv every word sounded like a voice from heaven. How gladly would he have died at once for his Tsar!

#KingDonald is becoming less popular? Under a #monarchy, popularity doesn't matter too much. #Power and #money is the only thing that matters.

Don't like King Donald? You'll get #deported. That's the way it is unfolding at the current time. And the #RepublcanParty and #SupremeCourt along with main stream media are complicit in all this.
