He cheated on his wife, very publicly for years. Idk about your views but maintaining a mistress immediately excludes you from being a good person. Charles was a prick for a long time before he started committing to charity, conservation, social outreach programs, etc

No disagreements about about him being a prick, but wishing cancer and even death on another person seems pretty wild to me.

Please point to where anyone wished cancer on anyone?*

Also, the fact that people don't feel sorry for the filthy rich old man getting what is almost certainly an age related disease (because it's not like he was exposed to the levels of shit food and air and stress that gives the rest of us cancer), is wild to you, but the existence of a "god appointed" ruler that leeches off of his people while they struggle to survive isn't, says a lot more about you than me not giving much of a shit does about me..

*E: you know what? Even if I had, wishing death on a person whose entire existence depends on the oppression (and death) of others on a mass, almost unimaginable scale, is still less morally repugnant than defending them. ¯\(ツ)
Eat the fucking rich - they've brought it on themselves.

I don't think that wishing death on someone is always bad but I don't really get it for King Charles

Didn't realise I opened twitter instead of Lemmy today...

Is anyone going to bother to explain why he's so bad?

Here’s an article going into some of the crown’s crimes, which Charles has willingly benefitted from and continues to do so.
