Idgaf about the queen in particular. But, I dont get the countries marking her death as a holiday. She was the face of the UK, sure. Her entire queenhood was symbolic, though. She didn’t set any international policy or have any real role in their governments. I get annoyance, disdain, even indirect anger at the monarchy for being the symbol of the UK government. But this feels more hateful and targetted. It’s fine if that’s how they feel. I just don’t understand why.
