>A Queen, without power is a fake; it's just a title but with the inability to do anything
The power the queen had was very minimal, but she did still have some power. Maybe you don't consider minimal power to be sufficient to be considered a monarch?
>This media circus, is a form a worship.
Are you using worship to just mean a high level of respect? If that is the case then fine, I assumed you were using it as thinking of the queen as divine.
>Sure people can cry for a person such as the Queen, a person they do not know except for what they see on TV or in other forms of media.
Most of us don't know any person in Gaza so it is just a number or image on a TV. It doesn't really seem any different than the queen in that respect.
Also, a random kid in Gaza likely doesn't impact us in the way the Queen can. If a kid in Gaza makes a speech are you going to hear about it? What about the queen?
>Personally I don't get it, I think Israel bombing Gaza killing children (just an example) is far more sad
It is irrelevant though? People can be sad for multiple things. There have been multiple threads on HN over the years about Israel / Palestine and other places going through turmoil. Why can't you just let people express sadness without trying to one up the sadness?
Great Britain is still a monarchy. However, it’s known as a constitutional monarchy and now King Charles III is the holder of this title. However since it’s a constitutional monarchy, most of the governing power rest with the parliament.
