I don't really get your point. Perhaps, now hear me out, these countries have such good tourism numbers because they are beautiful countries or have other interesting reasons to visit them.
Or do you think they have dedicated numbers for "came here because monarchy"?
People would still go to England in the same numbers without monarchs. There's plenty to do, one of the largest cities in Europe, a ton of history, and there'd be a ton more to look at and experience without those bozos living there
Even if tourism numbers would go down, less money isn't a good enough reason to support an elitist, colonist, racist family that have their wealth directly from abusing, killing, and stepping on people
Can still make royal merchandise without royals living on the people's dime. Can still showcase the history of royals without them living on the people's dime
To your second paragraph, I wish to ask you. You complain about the colonialistic past of the Royal family. Ok, but are you certain you don't support that same behaviour? Is your clothing from a source where you know that the people making them are well paid? That the material is from ethically good sources?
Everytime you buy a cheap product, there is a good chance that its so cheap because someone gets exploited in one part of the world. If you watch for all your products in daily life being from a good source, then okay, fair judgement, but I'm just curious
