I think I understand what you're trying to say, but racism is the wrong description.

And it's not an issue in the modern world because the Royal's don't have the power they once did. If they did, then I'm sure some would take issue.

If they don't have power then what's the point? You say they are just tourist attractions like Mickey mouse at disney world, so what makes them qualified to be entertainers? The propaganda is also ridiculous, watching the british media drool over prince william in a helicopter, ,looks more like russian propaganda over Putin. It's disgraceful.

I'd say the worldwide press are more positive about the Royals than the British ones. That's more "fans" like any other "celebrity" for doing his charity work etc. But as for worldwide coverage that's part of their role, to keep British relations with other countries.

You say qualified? They are in the Royal bloodline dating back through history.

Except as the years have passed their importance is diminishing, I don't think the Monarchy will last another 100 years or less they'll be completely abolished come that time.

Neither are separate family lines. As I said to lostalex, race isn't the issue.
