I am watching The Crown and I'm wondering why Q. Elizabeth II is such a $#cu? #StopMonarchies

Well, it’s a dramatized reenactment of conversations, interactions, and decisions that the writers have no actual insight into. For example, the episode where LBJ is kissed by Princess Margaret is nearly entirely false (although there was a party in the White House during her visit to the US and the US did eventually support bailing out the Pound). If she were a perfect person, she would make for pretty boring television. Second, she’s in a pretty difficult spot being the sovereign of a nation that has viewed a sovereign as less and less necessary over time. As you see in the show and in headlines from this past week, controlling her very large family is rather difficult.
