Is Mise,

You'll have to be more specific.

Because as monarch King Charles intends to protect
the diversity of religion in Britain and to
"respect those who follow other spiritual paths, as
well as those who seek to live their lives in
accordance with secular lives."

He doesn't see his role as defending Anglicanism
to the exclusion of other religions. Instead he sees
the Church having a duty to protect the free practice of
all faiths in the UK.

That is something that can't and should not be criticized.
I'm sure you will agree.

Is Mise,

As I explained earlier,
- people are entitled to their
religions and beliefs. People are also entitled
to mock (and criticize)
the religions of others.
You criticized - Hinduism.

People often mock religions. That's a fact.
However, I've never been one of those
people. And I would not do it. You were the one
who brought the
beliefs of our Indigenous people into the conversation
as well as bringing King Charles and his Church into the
conversation. Why? Again, as I've stated to you -
Please don't put words into my mouth. I can't be
held responsible for your interpretations of what I said -
only for what I did say.

Anyway:

This is for you:

Is Mise is one of a kind
On this forum he tends to hide
He sits in front of a computer screen
It's his favourite place to vent his spleen

He's an Irish bloke who must be right
He's always ready for a fight
The best advice that someone gave
Don't give this bloke that which he craves

On this forum there's lots like him
Who were used to pubs and losing skin
Now a computer for them provides
The skirmishes they've been deprived.

ABORIGINAL ANTI MONARCHY PROTESTERS SHRED, BLOOD AND BURN AUSTRALIAN FLAG

On National Day of Mourning for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II

Australian Associated Press via Canberra Times, Launceston Examiner, Northwest Star and many other papers report September 22 2022
http://www.canberratimes.com.au/story/7915082/protesters-demand-monarchy-be-abolished/

"Protesters demand monarchy be abolished"

The Australian flag has been covered in blood and burned at a series of anti-monarchy rallies across the country.

Protesters at Melbourne's Birrarung Marr cut up the flag and covered it in fake blood, while chanting "abolish the monarchy" in confronting scenes.

Greens senator Lidia Thorpe ["a proud DjabWurrung Gunnai Gunditjmara woman"] led hundreds of protesters of all ages and backgrounds taking a stand against colonisation on the Queen's National Day of Mourning.

"The Crown's boot is on our neck and we're sick of it," Senator Thorpe told the rally.

"Do you know we have over 20,000 Aboriginal children who have been stolen in 2022? And you want to mourn the coloniser who brought the pain and the genocide and the murders here to our people. Shame!"

The crowd then sat at the intersection of Flinders and Swanston streets while clutching Aboriginal flags and anti-monarchy signs, before marching to state parliament.

Senator Thorpe decried countless atrocities and human rights violations against First Nations people, and the high incarceration rates among Indigenous youths.

"While everyone mourns the Queen, we have 10-year-old babies trying to take their lives in Don Dale prison. We have to shut the child prisons down," she said.

In 2007, Indigenous youths accounted for 59 per cent of the total juvenile detention population, according to government records.

Last year, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander prisoners made up 30 per cent of all prisoners.

The protests come amid calls for the Victorian government to raise the age of criminal responsibility from 10 to at least 14.

The Melbourne rally was one of multiple protests in Australia on Thursday.

...Activist groups Warriors of the Aboriginal Resistance (WAR) and Fighting In Solidarity Towards Treaties are among those organising the demonstrations.."

Dear Maveri9ck,

I saw these demonstrations of television and I also
saw Lidia Thorpe with her hand raised. It was a
total turn-off for me. And I thought what a shame
this event took place the way it did. It would
have lost them many supporters. Violence and aggression
only achieves division. And their actions were vile.
They need better leadership. These people are too extreme.
