[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes people understand where some of their wealth came from.  They also acknowledge some jewels were gifts. Not all of their wealth just came from this and certainly not in recent years.  Some was personal jewellery of the Queens obtained in her lifetime and others royal jewellery. They did give back priceless artifacts to African countries.

A lot of countries have gained wealth by dubious means throughout the years.  People acknowledge and understand the past and what happened.  They just don't hold onto the hate.  People understand history is riddled with violence and unfairness.

Unfortunately because she is white their will be hatred. They won't see the good she did or what she gave as well.  Yes she grew up in privilege but what does it help to hate those more fortunate.

Plenty of billionaires out there whose money is made off other people's misery.  Do you buy diamonds today.  People today love diamonds at the expense of others.  Blood diamonds. It's so easy to be righteous when a lot of things are consumed from others suffering even animals. I bet you wear leather, the list goes on.  Unfortunately life is not always fair.  We understand the mistakes of the past,  apologies have been made to indigenous people in commonwealth countries.  If they still choose to hate, what can you do.  So much in recent years has been given but the past can't be changed and seeing the Royal Family broke and dead is the only answer some people have to be happy which is simply a miserable way to live.

Omg so much gaslighting. Cry me a river.  You realize all this happened in the recent past right? Most of this travesty less than a century old[/quote]

What are you doing to make amends?  [/quote]
