Why does western traditional ideology believe the royals are better then the non royals?
Mainly tradition going back to the Middle Ages and further. People like to be lead by someone. They want someone to look up to and to make decisions.It is also the natural order of things.
Many animals and even some insects in nature have members of their community are considered leaders. Personally, I'm more of the philosophy that no one person's existence could be better than another person's existence, so I guess I would side with a more eastern idealogy, but growning up in a Western country makes it hard to go against the grain. Then again, people in Western countries are a lot less obedient of authority than people in Eastern countries.
So while easterners might not hold royals in high regard, they do hold people in power (government) in high regard and are less likely to rebel against their leaders.
Not only that, but the media expects us to worship the royals like the gods they aren’t, whilst simultaneously subjecting them to the same disgrace on the tabloids as celebrities. Even such “patriotic” catchphrases as “God save the queen” are now nothing more than corporate slogans placed on cheesy merchandise to sell crap. This culture allows a complete nobody, who did nothing of any worth to gain the praise of millions of idiots.
I’m of course talking about Kate Middleton, a woman who’s otherwise so worthless, that topless photos of her will instantly magnetize attention to her, like there’s nothing better for us to focus on. Most people will say that we need the royals because it brings tourism to the country. Excuse my French, but I think the Olympics already accomplished that.
And let’s be reasonable. If tourism is the only reason we keep the royal family (aside from the trashy celebrity culture), then something is truly wrong. Not to mention the fact that the royals are extremely rich.
All the money they have could have easily gone towards curing cancer or AIDS, and people think that somehow the royals are more deserving of it? Good God, what has our society come to? It values a dying, useless circle of aristocrats on gold chairs rather than doctors who save lives.
It values trashy celebrity culture over the people who help their community everyday, and all of what I have said, is why I believe we don’t need the royal family anymore, and may we be better without them.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
