Europeans and their Self-Adulation
So, in 2025, we are being told that parasitical European Royals whose ancestors despoiled our lands, killed millions of our ancestors, enslaved and colonized us, can arrogate to themselves the right to confer legitimacy on our leaders by their presence in our land!
What an exceeding sense of self-worship😳
Robert Ingersoll: “No cross, no crown. The king owned the bodies of men; the priest, the souls. One lived on taxes collected by force, the other on alms collected by fear - both robbers, both beggars.
These robbers and these beggars controlled two worlds. The king made laws, the priest made creeds. Both obtained their authority from God, both were the agents of the Infinite.
With bowed backs the people carried the burdens of one, and with wonder's open mouth received the dogmas of the other.”
Thomas Paine: “There is something exceedingly ridiculous in the composition of monarchy.”
Here is one such report. I guess the writers expect us to vibrate like the stupid, grinning Picannies the former UK PM described us as!

Dutch royals arrive in Kenya for controversial three-day visit
March 18, 2025
King Willem-Alexander and queen Máxima have arrived in Kenya for a three day official visit, despite concerns about the human rights situation in the country.
Critics of the royal trip say it is giving legitimacy to the regime there and some 22,000 people signed a petition calling on the king to cancel the visit.
The Netherlands is the biggest importer of goods from Kenya and diplomatic ties stretch back 60 years.
At the same time, president William Ruto, who came to power in 2022, has been accused of not doing enough to boost the country’s economy. At least 60 people were killed by the authorities in mass protests against government policy last year.
In a short speech on his arrival, Willem-Alexander said the people of Kenya, like those of the Netherlands, want their rights as free citizens to be respected, and their voices to be heard.
“I’m pleased that our countries’ strong and mature relationship allows us to devote attention during this visit to issues like human rights, good governance and accountability,” he said.
“We are grateful to have the opportunity to discuss the concerns that exist in these areas. Later this morning, at the ambassador’s residence, we will be meeting young Kenyans to hear their views on recent developments. What opportunities do they see to build a bright future for the country they love? A future in which everyone can participate on an equal footing.”
