We teach our children happy Disney bullshit about princes and princesses. The truth is much uglier, and Stalinist-royalist succession in North Korea is the face of it.

There have been so many devastatingly bad hereditary rulers that it's hard to see why that idea would get any respect, even in a world of Easter bunnies and Santa Claus. Yet it's a hardy perennial.

That says something about us as a species. I just haven't yet figured out what.

chris74, jeez, I hate explaining plain English to people who can't read and won't show good faith.

North Korea is a hereditary monarchy dressed up in ugly Stalinism. As a small-d democrat, I don't like it.

I also don't like our continued romance with princes and princesses. We should be teaching our children about the heroes of democracy. Instead, we feed them Disney bullshit.

Plus we should teach people like you to read better. Fortunately, you still haven't graduated high school, so maybe there's a remedial program for you.

Unless you really are defending royalty, which would be even more moronic on your part...
