express her feelings.
Free speech is only for the colonizer.

I don't wish anyone an excruciating death but I am not mourning for the British queen.

Was any part of that original tweet untrue? If nothing was untrue, than it's only objectional to say that colonialist have raped and pillaged around the world under authorizations of royal decrees?

And the former "monarch" never disavowed the James Bond series about "her royal majesty's" extra judicial killer either.

Inadvisably used social media also causes the sudden death of careers.

Fine, I understand grave dancing and its reasons. But this is way over the top, and under the circs is best left offline.
