I've heard HRT (head removal therapy) has been massively successful in transitioning monarchies to democracies

Take all your overgrown infants away somewhere
And build them a home, a little place of their own
The Fletcher Memorial
Home for Incurable
Tyrants and Kings

And they can appear to themselves everyday
On closed circuit TV
To make sure they're still real
It’s the only connection they feel

-- Roger Waters, The Fletcher Memorial Home

Even in the early 1980s, some of us bleeding hearts and artists saw and knew.

I'm in favor of royal exploration therapy in the meantime, just so he can understand all his options. We'll ask relevant questions like:

  • Do you think about your title when you masterbate?

  • Were you ever touched inappropriately as a child?

  • What role do you enjoy in sex?

  • Does your royal... confusion stem from how it was modeled in your family?

  • Do you get aroused at the thought of suppressing peasant uprisings?

  • Are you aware that you'll never be a real leader? You'll never be valid without becoming authoritarian and suppressing free speech. You can always desist at any time, but there will be irreversible damage if you change your mind too late.

People have fought many wars to not have to recognize kings. We're standing on their shoulders. Maybe the UK will catch up someday. In the meantime, let's dethrone ALL of the billionaires.

Of course he still wouldn't be a real king, it's just simple biology

Poor King Chuckles.

He’s waited his whole life to get the crown than he gets ass-cancer and people still disrespect his authority.

Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.

You can’t expect to wield supreme executive power just ’cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!

I'm an emperor because a moistened bint threw a scimitar at me!

God himself gave him his authority, he doesn’t need your vote.

No, I talked with the FSM, they said the one true king of England was Wade Boggs.

That's why he'd be such a good king!

All the tourism benefits, none of the problems.

It worked for the French.
