Pretty stupid of them to start this ceremony at 6 AM on a Saturday.

If they started any later Charles might have died of old age before being crowned.

Unfortunately this is correct. Charles did, in fact, expire before it started. What sits on the throne now is a tightly woven simulacrum consisting primarily of wadded up child pornography and lunchables, press molded into the shape of his highness the gilded pedo.

Sure, people are literally going hungry today where this is happening because it is happening, but we all got to watch a literal child rapist draped in gold and jewels his family raped and murdered millions of people around the world to collect, so I think it works itself out in the wash.

I suppose it must have sunk in during the ceremony - barely a few months ago he was in the same place, looking at the box that contained his mother; and now he's the one in the chair, in the robes, holding the bric-a-brac, swearing on a Bible, being the focus of a ceremony that dates back almost a thousand years. Being all radiant with pleasure at being the centre of attention would have been weirder than clearly having the 'this is actually happening, this is what the golden birdcage feels like, she would have known what to think and do' thoughts, I think.

Lolling at camilla looking incredibly embarrassed to wear a crown and very much like a rabbit in the headlights as they approach with it and make her do the little ceremony.

Get the impression she really didn't want that, but as hes the king she cant really say no if he says that's whats going to happen as a romantic gesture or whatever.

False. There is only one electron and it has never stopped
Do you think Elizabeth wanted Charles to inherit the throne? Like maybe she thought tradition is for the best. But actually would pick him if she had a choice?

Comedy scenario would be a Game of Thrones situation where she wrote her wishes that he abdicate for his oldest son but House Wales guards burned the letter in front of William.

Oh, and Jones was there too.

I mean, she was (at least a party?) involved in getting the laws changed so girls can inherit if they're born first.

Not that it matters, because abolish the lot of them.

Her sole reason for living so long was to either outlive him or at the very least make sure his reign was as short as possible.

Charles III sincerely cares about art, culture, the environment and food. All of these are in desperate need of a staunch advocate in the PR space. Capital is clearly aligned against each. Capital wants art to be cheap and disposable, culture to be universal and shallow, the environment to be as lovely as possible and for food to be homogenized swill manufactured as cheaply as possible while being sold with extremely high margins.

Because of that there have been decades long propaganda campaigns against him. He's a lot like Hillary Clinton in that regard. Sure, he sucks. But most people hate him for the wrong reasons. The people whose values align with his on the part where most people hate him, hate him for other (much better) reasons leaving him with no natural allies.
