The Royalty Have No Place In Our Modern World

We Need To Abolish The Royalty

When it comes to class divisions and hierarchies within a society, in my humble opinion, I don’t agree with the concept of having a monarchy or people who are considered royalty.

Everyone should be seen and treated as equal, without any special status or positions awarded to certain groups of people.

In line with that, feudalistic thinking, which sadly is still prevalent in some parts of the world, should also be abolished.

A Root Cause Of Many Of Society’s Problems

The reason is because, it’s these types of systems and ways of thinking that ultimately lead to unfair and unjust treatment, high inequality, and corruption within a society, with those in the lower class suffering the most.

In terms of royalty specifically, once society starts awarding and recognizing a select, small group of people as being higher than the average citizens as well as who naturally deserve to be looked up to, this makes that group of people more arrogant and have a sense of superiority over the rest of society.

Those people will feel justified in their actions and that they should be treated better and more favorably than the average citizens.

Essentially, they view themselves as part of a separate, higher class in society, immune and exempt to the common laws and punishments, compared to everyone else.

A Great Rift Between The Royalty And Rest Of Society

Frankly, this is a dangerous, unhealthy way of thinking, and in the long term, it brings about discontentment, strife, and conflict within a society.

This is mainly because, the average citizens will gradually observe and realize that the system is heavily one-sided, whereby the royalty are given a lot of special treatment, and are inherently, insanely wealthy, as compared to the majority in society, who are struggling to make ends meet.

As things worsen, especially in terms of worsening inequality between the elite class and the rest of society, the average citizens will get increasingly disillusioned, angry, and resentful towards the elites and the royalty.

This can very potentially spark unrest and an uprising of the people, to demand change for a more equal, fairer society.

Everyone Must Be Treated Equally And There Must Be No Special Treatment

In conclusion, more people should start becoming aware of the fact that for a society to be truly fair, equal, and prosperous, concepts and institutions like royalty should be abolished.

People, especially political leaders, need to adopt the mindset that everyone should be seen and treated as equal and that no one should inherently be awarded any special status or position in society.

Only when a society treats its citizens in a truly fair and equal manner, can everyone be prosperous and that society, progress forward.
