King Charles arrives in an Australia with mixed feelings about the monarchy.
Why should the King have mixed emotions?

Fuck the monarchy, god isn't real and nor is your power
Funny that’s how I feel about all authority figures.
Sorry mate but bezos is the actual ruler
There's no mixed feelings, we liked your mum, we don't like you, that's all.
Why did you like his mother? Was it her dear love of colonialism or her dear love of her racist husband?
Who's "we"? I want all the parasites-in-chief with the idiot hats to fuck off.
👍👍👍👍🕺
They were all in a position if power because came out of the right vagina, fuck em all
What, in particular, do we not like about Charley?
We generally sided with Diana over here.
To me personally, the Queen had a lot of wisdom in consulting the government from a life of many experiences. Charles seems like a bit of a silver spoon baby. I just don't think the monarchy has any value beyond celebrity gossip.
Which is a shit rationale frankly. Dude had an arranged marriage that didn't work out and only got to marry the person he wanted to much later in life.
Given the guy has always been a proponent of environmentalism and sustainable industry I think people should give him a lot more respect as an individual, regardless of what you may think about the institution.
"....arrives in an Australia" there are more than one?
There is one in Europe, next to Germany.
Yes, but not in matters of space, but time. It speaks to the current state of Australia's view on monarchy.
Well, yeah, there's Western Australia, South Australia
Sure everyone knows about the east coast, but less talked about is the Republic of Westralia
