One person should not receive so much attention. People die. We all die. Yes, I understand she was a fake Queen of a country, but so what?

Why do we feel we need to worship these people, be it royalty or celebrities? They are just people, like you and me who happen to be famous.

People are dying in Gaza too, maybe spare a tear for them.

She was a real queen, albeit with little power. What is a fake queen?

>Why do we feel we need to worship these people, be it royalty or celebrities?

Can you point to anybody worshipping her? Talking about a person or showing them respect is not worship.

>People are dying in Gaza too, maybe spare a tear for them.

Can people not do both?

A Queen, without power is a fake; it's just a title but with the inability to do anything because successive governments over time striped the Royal Family of any and all powers, and any that do remain can be vetoed by the Govt.

This media circus, is a form a worship.

Sure people can cry for a person such as the Queen, a person they do not know except for what they see on TV or in other forms of media. Personally I don't get it, I think Israel bombing Gaza killing children (just an example) is far more sad

She did have power. She chose not to wield it or interfere, and trust in the system.
