If one believes in ‘royalty’ or ‘royal blood’ simply by accident-of-birth then one cannot possibly be conservative.

Guess that depends on one's definition of "conservative." If it means someone who does not want to randomly jettison the traditions of the past out of hatred and envy, then I'm certainly a conservative.

Nota bene: it's the Marxists who advocate the execution of aristocrats which you say you would watch on TV. Are you playing on their team? That's what the Bolsheviks did to the Russian Imperial family, "each and every one of them," as you say. Machine-gunned, as I recall, but the effect is the same. Lovely group of people you find yourself in ageement with.

You appear not to have understood my post. Neither you nor I can comment on the individual character of members of the British Royal Family; only God has that information. But the royals provide an economic spur to the economy of their nation in ways I detailed in my prior post, and they provide historical and cultural continuity that is very important to a United Kingdom that is presently very much challenged. Since they are not presently seeking to impose control over the US, why are you so hostile toward them? Smells like class hatred.

“Smells like class hatred.”

Class hatred? Who said that they have ‘class’? They put their pants on one leg at a time just as I do. They have this high, exalted position for simply being born. ;-)

“Lurch” had an affair that later led to marriage to a ‘commoner’. The ‘precious Di’ had an affair with a stable boy! Class? You simply have to be joking!

BTW, why are brits referred to as ‘commoners’?
