Do they though ? What possible relevance has this nonsense to the general population ? It's only the elites who perpetuate this fol de rol, people don't love it, but there is no way for us to change it.

Oh, the crowds that line the streets to genuflect when a royal marries or dies tell their own story.

If you wanted to change it, you'd have done what the French did: revolt.

"Fol-de-rol" refers to nonsense, trivial things, or elaborate, but ultimately meaningless, procedures. It can describe anything from silly talk to unnecessary rituals or decorations. It can also refer to a nonsensical refrain in some old songs.

It's one thing to be anti war personally, as in not wanting to go to war himself, and sending other people to war

That's another thing entirely

Look at what he's doing to put his own troops in potential harm's way, needlessly, on the streets of America

Good idea or not?
