the Queen is dead, short will live the King
the traditional proclamation is:
the king is dead, long live the king
a wish the elite class expresses for the continuation of status quo
i.e., the system has chosen the new monarch – with the same old
so don’t think about revolting or dream about a good life or equality
short live the King is not out of any ill will towards Charles
for Charles to rule longer than his mother is impossible
because he’ll need to live 145 years
in a couple of months Prince Charles, now King Charles, will turn 74
average lifespan for English male is 79.0 years (82.9 years female)
with best amenities & NHS at his service, Charles could live to 100
but then after 70,
a lot of diseases just come from everywhere, uninvited
Elizabeth II just loved her imperial crown,
she didn’t wanted to part with it
nine years ago I speculated what if the Queen lives to be 115
well she passed away just shy of nineteen years of that
if she had lived 115, Charles would have been in a wheelchair
and next in line,
William would have been dragging himself with a walker
now the talk will be about the coronation of King Charles III
the news media loves royal spectacles;
and coronation of Charles will provide it
the news media is already out – everywhere
trying to create a sympathetic picture of the Queen
and now … King Charles
sometime it backfires when public answers …
don’t match media expectations
such as this one – a very mild criticism
