    I dislike the royals, but ultimately any person suffering with cancer is deserving of sympathy.

      I kind of think you’d have a different tune if this were Putin to be honest, wanna talk about why? In my mind, all of the appeals to civility are just status quo worship veiled in “human decency” that 1) doesn’t consider the good that would be brought to the world by his passing and 2) isn’t extended to anyone outside of the status quo power structure.

        If Putin, Xi or {designated USA enemy} had cancer, fucking westerners would throw 7 days of celebrations
