It's ridiculous to me how europeans will defend their "powerless" kings and queens (lemmygrad.ml)

I don't care how much "real" power they have. If you actually believe in a meritocracy how can you defend someone getting a job because of their lineage, attending real political events and ceremonies and influencing policies that way? And let's not forget that in many cases, they ACTUALLY have institutional powers they just don't use because they don't have to, the institutions serve their interests all the same.

Sorry for the pointless rant. It just happens way too often.

they're not so "powerless" i mean, in spain, a communist rapper was jailed for "insulting the crown" or something like that, because he criticized the corruption of the king
