Prissy? You don't think these comments could possibly violate the rules of posting on Twitter?
"May her pain be excruciating."
"May she die in agony."
I agree that those comments are out of line.
If anything, she was queen during the decline of the British Empire. All that's left of it are a lot of small islands.
That is such a weirdass criticism. "Stop complaining about being a territorial holding of a corrupt family, they don't have unjust domination over nearly as many places as they used to!" If they
suck at maintaining their empire, then now more than ever it is a good time to want to be rid of them. If you don't want your nation to be the possession of aristocrats in the first place, why would it be any more appealing to be the possession of a crumbling and
declining empire?
Her shittiness and the shittiness of things she presided over are not grounds to wish pain and anguish upon her.
Why the hell not? She could read. She knew her position. She accepted it all voluntarily, over and over.
I think the question isn't whether the Crown has issues... it is whether statements like:
"May her pain be excruciating."
"May she die in agony."
are against the terms of using Twitter. I'm pretty certain if I said "May you die in agony", that would be moderated here.. and you aren't even a Queen! Well... I don't think you are queen.
It isn't as much as wishing ill will on the Queen... it is the inflammatory wishing of ill will on anyone. The Tweet could have been scathing, without the "pain" and "agony". Oddly enough, maybe a better written and scathing Tweet would have been taken more seriously too. Granted, it wouldn't have been deleted and TSwizzle wouldn't have been able to complain about Twitter censoring people wishing terrible pain and agony on an elderly person.
