Respect must be earned. This is not ridiculous. There are many qualities that will earn you respect. Simply being dead is not one of them.

And yes, this is a rant about libs defending the Queen.

    This reminded me of polish joke about our dead president Lech Kaczyński:

    Funeral of L. Kaczyński, thousands of people present. Priest says: “remember that we either speak something good about the dead or nothing at all”

    loooooooooooong silence

    Finally someone from the back row screams “HIS BROTHER IS WORSE!”

    If libs respected the dead, they wouldn’t be so horny to bomb people. It’s just more westoid hypocrisy and chauvinism, thinly veiled by self righteous arrogance.

    Libs want you to respect the dead because they are so far removed from death that they would rather pretend it simply doesn’t happen. Death is something that happens to “others”, not to our public figures or family.

    It’s not like they afford the same respect to other dead figures they admire less.

    I definitely agree. I never understood the inherent respect in being dead, lol.

      I see what you mean, but I would classify the kind of unconditional respect for another as a human being as being more just basic human decency. Respect is for me something that is added on top of that. I would call the first form of respect “human respect”, the second “individual respect”. “Individual respect” must be earned. “Human respect” is, as you say, a given, but can be lost. I hope that clears things up.

    I will respect the dead only to avoid hurting their family and other people who loved them. And in this case, I really hope to break the heart of every monarchist cuck.

    But she did a thing in WW2 and also there’s that pic of her driving an SUV with a hoodie on so she’s totally great guys. We must shower her with love and adoration.

    Now that you mention it, there’s actually a great number of living people whom I would respect much more as corpses

    I find this funny. “It’s not hard to show some respect”. No it isn’t, I do it all the time. I’m purposefully not showing respect because I don’t respect institutions of colonial oppression. That’s the whole point.
