What are my biggest strengths and weaknesses? I know what I think they are, but I'd like an outside perspective

Weakness is probably assuming stuff that you can’t have an opinion on - how can you say England is an L country when you’ve never been to it?

How? Have you even been to it?

honestly, I personally don’t have a strong opinion about Britain. I want to go there though.

I’ve been to Britain and I think that it’s okay. The monarchy is an L system, but not really much more than some of the corrupt/undemocratic stuff that happens here in America. 🤷‍♂️

I mean, the monarchs don’t do anything really. Just publicity figures.

That’s not true, they are beneficiaries of public tax money. Not because they did anything to deserve tax money, but because of their birth. A fundamental concept of equality/democracy is that no person can be above another person purely by birth.

Imagine paying for this one random British families expenses (not cheap!) with your tax money. Even the poorest Brits have to pay these people?!

yes, but they bring in over $2 billion to the British economy per year. Net profit for the economy

I do partially agree with you though - a lot of tax money went towards to Meghan and Harry buying a villa in Spain. Ridiculous

The monarchy brings a lot of tourist money in for the country though as well

I live in ireland so I kinda know what went down with them and us not too long ago…
