thanks karl.. it's a sad tale that is intentionally not told in the western msm for obvious reasons.. the brits are especially ruthless, hiding behind the phony facade of royalty... it is more cunning then the usa at present which does it via its corporations and ''visionary leaders'' lol... i mean, if you are really going to do a hollywood production to hide your nerfarious and deceptive ways - which is better - royalty, or corporations with charismatic leaders - elon musk, steve jobs and etc?? i think the brit approach is much more cunning..

Yep and large swathes of people in Britain's former colonies (and African countries) still very much follow the "Royal Family" in a sort of movie star way.

Royalists have long been a problem in Europe, not just in UK and consist of two different factions--elites and commoners--both of which impede progress to a just situation. The British TV production "Keeping Up Appearances" showcased that quite well. As I understand it, the Protestant Wind is still celebrated today. Illiteracy regarding Enclosure and the English Civil War is astounding, and not just in UK. The entire Age of Plunder is very little understood and is actually longer that the Age of Colonialism--the Vatican started it in the 11th Century, but for some reason it's taboo to state that fact.

To add unrelated comment — royalists are also big in Australia, but I also have to admit that in a very strange way 😎

it is a weird disease that a lot of ordinary people appear to be afflicted with and yes - very much like the dynamic out of hollywood, or bollywood... a fixation with ''stars''... the media helps support this affliction as well there constantly obsessing over them.. it probably explains some of trumps appeal as well - another one with a huge ego who feels the world revolves around him...

also, your timing for this article is fortuitous!!

"Africa Day came into being on May 25, 1963, under the aegis of the Organization of African Unity (OAU), as a recognition of Africa’s diverse cultures, history, and collective struggles against colonialism, imperialism, and slavery."

"I recall writing before the wicked Queen passed that she was indeed wicked because she headed the UK’s Plunder Ltd. After that ensued a squabble over the veracity of my observation as my comment pulled many trolls from the woodwork at MoA. One of the tasks faced by Russia and China as they strive to help Africa develop will be to sever the last vestiges of Neocolonialism and help make African nations sovereign. That may seem easy at first glance; but given the Lawfare we’ve already seen, the process will be drawn-out as long as possible. And that’s why the Outlaw US Empire has deployed its own troops and those of its Terrorist Foreign Legion to give it an excuse to be there and keep Africans enslaved to their Colonial Masters for as long as possible."

Amen!

For those interested Walter Rodney’s “How Europe underdeveloped Africa” is an essential history. It starts in C15 mapping the tribal and trading patterns in Africa and moves forward through the slave trade and colonialisation until Rodney’s assassination in the 1980s. The last chapter is a detailed study of the deliberate undereducation of African peoples to prevent them moving forward to prosperity.

Interesting topic which will come up in the near future. I only have a closer look on those nations in Northern Africa because they're closer conennected to France: Pepe will probably come up with these connections. There was not just Macrons Néstle - Pfizer deal there was Macron's agreement with Morocco for the Rothschild Bank on the “agricultural reform” allegedly carried out there has brought him very much into the financial circles of the French republican monarchy although, according to former colleagues, he did not have any particular expertise. Here is a bit a view from the empire of yankiestan.

Good piece. Two little points about the Royals:

1. They are a puppet lineage, mainly, since the 1600's. So although the Queen may be as 'wicked' as you say, it is those behind the Throne that deserve more scrutiny. That famous picture of Evelyn Rothschild poking Prince Charles in the chest is telling, though I think one has to dig deeper than that to get a full picture. Which of course is hard to do and involves entertaining one series of deceptive narratives after another, therefore not good for the health! (A good old rabbit hole is L.B. Woolfolk's 'The Great Red Dragon or London Money Power, about the British Empire in the mid 1800s.)

2. The underlying system of royalty/monarchy goes deep in the human psyche transcending the issue of whether or not it is an elite-drive top-down deception, or a political system. There is not a young girl in the world of any race or culture who does not instantly resonate when perceiving the image of a Princess. The bedrock notions boil down to appreciation of sacred perception which is the fulcrum where secular and religious experience meet. If one lives in a culture grounded in sacred perception, then all members therein are akin to Kings and Queens and any actual such merely exemplify this universal principle. However, in our current secular age wherein sacredness is almost anathema, royalty is generally anachronistic or outright deceptive.

The Windsors in the UK are perfect modern-day Royals, being largely phony and functionally disempowered. However, the population continually surprises the world with the depth of feeling they display when Royals are involved in serious scandals, premature deaths, marriages etc. This response, though no doubt manipulated to a certain degree, is grounded in real depth of feeling for the archetypical nature of Royalty which persists despite the modern age we all live in. So clearly there is something deeply genuine to the underlying system which, fundamentally, is symbolic and, again, grounded in sacred perception, one of the most precious experiences in the human realm.

So one can despise the Windsors all one likes, not without good reason, but it doesn't change the fact that for whatever reason a nation with such Royals exhibits a deep connection to the underlying principles such sacred symbolism embodies.
