"The Crown" as disguised hatred


I tell you, Peter Morgan, the creator and screenwriter of the Netflix series, "The Crown," hates the English monarchy and aristocracy, but his hatred is hidden beneath sarcasm, irony, and beautiful old buildings---and we Americans are so besotted by the English aristocracy that we give him Emmy Awards for his attack.

Morgan doesn't really understand, or hates, the character, tone, and guiding beliefs of the monarchy and its Christian ethos, although I suppose it's only natural if he prefers the eye for an eye perspective of his own Jewish heritage (see his skewing of hillbilly American evangelist Billy Graham and the idea of Christian forgiveness.)

Morgan's favorite character is obviously the lost and decadent Princess Margaret, but, for example, even with her we are shown what looks like horse shit on the ground as she moves toward her limousine wearing her white wedding dress.

And this series will go on and on....

This is how the West falls admiring the work of those who destroy it.

Freedom of the press in the West, from books and movies to politics, really has become a cloak for those who rise to power by way of the destruction of Western culture. Defense of the West is called hate speech! Will the small set of narrow exceptions to free speech protection have to be expanded if the West wants to survive?
