That was the case with Australia

2018-07-17 09:06:27 UTC  

Doesn't even need wide popular approval. Just enough to make revolt inpractical.

2018-07-17 09:06:38 UTC  

however you define 'revolt'

2018-07-17 09:06:45 UTC  

The prime minister was unpopular enough that the people didn't complain when a perfectly law-abiding politician was suddenly and swiftly ejected from the office they were duly elected to serve in

2018-07-17 09:06:48 UTC  

at least according to polling

2018-07-17 09:07:09 UTC  

Even if the people DID revolt, it's not like the Canadian armed forces swear allegiance to Canadian law

2018-07-17 09:07:14 UTC  

or people

2018-07-17 09:07:17 UTC  

or politicians

2018-07-17 09:07:17 UTC  

But in practice the Queen doesnt excercise a whole lot of power here, and if she did try to do something widely unpopular she'd be putting herself in a precarious situation i imagine

2018-07-17 09:07:22 UTC  

They swear allegiance only to the Queen

2018-07-17 09:07:36 UTC  

But she DID exercise this power in practice in 1975

2018-07-17 09:07:41 UTC  

So what's to stop her from doing it again?

2018-07-17 09:07:48 UTC  

Yeah, but show me a Canadian that'd actually answer to the Queen instead of the nation when it mattered

2018-07-17 09:07:49 UTC  

Who the military swears alliance to is more of a formality than a reality.

2018-07-17 09:07:55 UTC  

Don't give political power to someone purely because they came out of the right vagina

2018-07-17 09:08:23 UTC  

It shows where power nominally rests and the traditions and culture lie, but it says very little about how things might operate in a true crisis.

2018-07-17 09:08:25 UTC  

That's rich coming from someone whose screenname starts with "Swedish"

2018-07-17 09:08:33 UTC  

This is more a matter of us inheriting this governmental structure, and so long as the Queen just stays quiet, it doesnt hurt us much to keep it.

2018-07-17 09:08:40 UTC  

I hate my monarchy too @RMS_Gigantic

2018-07-17 09:08:48 UTC  

Knug Gustaf and whatnot

2018-07-17 09:09:28 UTC  

Our royal family wants more tax money so they can marry more Beverly Hills Americans

2018-07-17 09:09:29 UTC

Challenge your king to the right to the crown!

Demand a trial by wombat!

2018-07-17 09:09:43 UTC  

Hold on while I steal that picture of the guy with a flag and shotgun off the firearms-chat.

2018-07-17 09:09:45 UTC  

Dude, I am literally the reincarnation of Maximilien Robespierre

2018-07-17 09:09:55 UTC  

Rats. I can't post pictures.

2018-07-17 09:10:17 UTC  

Sweden apparently has Republikanska Föreningen and the Swedish Republican Association as political groups for opposing monarchism

2018-07-17 09:10:31 UTC  

this one?

2018-07-17 09:10:33 UTC  

Yes!

2018-07-17 09:10:34 UTC  

^Me irl

2018-07-17 09:10:41 UTC  

Me irl

2018-07-17 09:10:58 UTC  

I'm so fucking American, I view republicanism as a political ideology in itself

2018-07-17 09:11:18 UTC  

why not be so american, that you consider Republicans to be communists too 😛

2018-07-17 09:11:35 UTC  

like George Liquor

2018-07-17 09:11:52 UTC  

That's just ancap. you'd have to go to Liberland or something for that.

2018-07-17 09:12:00 UTC  

Why is Love Island a thing?

2018-07-17 09:12:49 UTC  

but getting back to my original topic, Tim tends to neglect to mension the background or indeed the restricting clauses of Directive 51

2018-07-17 09:13:03 UTC  

It's just a bunch of plastic millenials trying to shag each other and fight when someone shags the wrong person

2018-07-17 09:13:06 UTC  

It's PURELY a COG/COOP/ECG document

2018-07-17 09:13:27 UTC  

@Swedishmafia101 It sells to cucks and dramaqueens

2018-07-17 09:13:45 UTC  

Hey guys, remember how TYT covered that Spanish guy getting hit with a brick? They left out that it was done by a black woman.

Well they’ve done it again. This video is on the CVS coupon controversy. They leave out that the police were called over trespassing, not the coupon.

TYT is intentionally deceiving people
