bitterandtwisted posted:Honestly didn't know there was a prince Edward namesake posted:There's an extended royal family but since they're all off noncing or breaking international laws around arms dealing or slavery and things they're kept well out of the limelight. Edward did the ultimate faux pas that you could do as a Royal, he did a charity thing with oiks that actually raised money instead of them spending the oiks money. The poshes and media didn't like it, and he has been hiding ever since.

I was bitterly disappointed that there wasn’t an episode about It’s a Royal Knockout in Netflix’s The Crown. I mean, come on.

I thought it was because he was gay and thus to be hidden from sight, lest the idea of a gay royal caused the people to rise up and become republicans.

It's interesting how "they" always use the sharp, pointy word 'axis' to refer to whichever forces "we" are aligned against and the cuddly, friendly word 'coalition' for whichever loose alliance "we" are currently aligned in. It's quite interesting to reword propaganda exchanging 'coalition' for 'axis'. ('Alliance' works the same way as 'coalition').

There was a general air of him being the idiot of the family, not sure disliked is the right description. Andrew prob definitely has taken the disliked position nowadays. Back then, before the divorces and such, doing anything other than shaking hands and asking people what they do was frowned on. There was a kerfuffle about Diana 'breaking protocol' taking part in a school sports day run even. She was advised not to do it, but she went and did.

Thanks to generations of inbreeding there's basically 6 posh woman looks and Charles has married two of them, it was pretty inevitable there'd be some overlap.

Basically he was the youngest, and while in normal families he'd be the beloved one it works differently for royals. Brenda had dropped the Heir (with whom you're always gonna have a strained relationship because their entire life is spent training for the day you die), a girl (useless), and the Spare (Andrew, who is her favourite), so there wasn't really any space left for Edward. The fact he's named after the Queen's uncle, who she absolutely *despised* (she considered his abdication a dereliction of duty, and believed it hastened her father's death), should be a bit of a clue.

It really can't be stressed enough that despite everything Andrew is still beloved by Brenda. Will be very interesting to see if Andrew's status changes when she pops her clogs and Charles takes over.

Is there a reason beyond "Charles will eventually replace me" or whatever? Also I am still of the opinion that Charles is going to pre-decease his own mum.

Maybe a bit less obvious now with smaller families and changing social norms about not warping your kids. I'm my mum's favourite anyway because I'm the baby of 5, and my siblings all have no chill or are weirdos in some way

I met Andrew once (pre-Epstein scandal) and no-one I've ever encountered before or since has given me such a concentrated impression of being an insufferable twat in so short a time. He radiates pure anti-charisma.

It's quite interesting to reword propaganda exchanging 'coalition' for 'axis'. They're just trying to remind people of World War II. But in that war it was the Axis themselves who coined the name; Mussolini (possibly cribbing from the premier of Hungary) declared that Rome and Berlin would form the new axis of power around which Europe would turn.
