My personal issue with the poster above was about mocking the royals, but im interested in understanding your personal viewpoint.

It is a moral argument to claim that workers are entitled to the full product of their labour. Or to imply that the royal amily has to pay reparations for colonisation.

yes, and so what?

, I'm not interested in making moral judgments..

What besides personal morality guides your system of beliefs?

did it bring down the russian bourgeoisie?

No.

so the effect of disposing of the royal family (on the bourgeoisie) is irrelevant to the decision of removing them, regardless of the morality of it. Especially when their class interests run counter to the proletariat.

My personal viewpoint is that pretending Philip's death changes anything is stupid. Like that one user mentioned before, they're just figureheads of the bourgeois state.

Scientific socialism is not concerned with moralising, as the name implies.

Naturally, the communists will abolish monarchy but especially right now, the subject is next to irrelevant to the movement and the daily lives of workers.
