The whingeing, moaning, and restlessness continued until someone came up with the idea of a revolution to bring in democracy ie let the primitives decide who will govern over them. Recently the ozzie primitives decided Albo was the man to rule over them and what a fucked up decision that was. Can't wait till imperialism kicks in (that'll be a popcorn worthy show) but Cest la Vie.
Whoever wrote this is probably just jealous of royalty. There's nothing to be proud of if you're born either as part of the ruling family or the branches that may never sit on the throne for the next generations to come. I've met many royal relatives of remaining Southeast Asian ruling families and they're a mix bag of people like everyone else - some are still rich while the rest are poor even though they have interesting "titles" on their legal names. What matters is what you do for the people who look up to you - like Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn of Thailand. She's the sister to the current King Vajiralongkorn, and you don't see her on the media too many times because the media just isn't interested in a public person's good deeds as it doesn't sell advertisement space like a royal who's been caught in a scandal.

By the way, whoever it is that goes around banning people without valid reasons should also know that the SSL crap on this forum is causing errors in advert display. Maybe that should make someone think about the dwindling ad revenue and the cost of running clickbots that makes the forum traffic really suspicious as the number of visitors are practically the same every single day.
