Never express an opinion, never rock the boat, just do as I say.

"Keep your mouth shut", there's a non-authoritarian phrase if I ever did here one.

I'll try and stop being a "narcissist" (it's clear you have no idea what that word means) when you stop being a fascist.
For one minute mate ? not your entire life.

“an excessive preoccupation with one's own needs, often at the expense of others.”
An narcissist would know that by refusing to partake in a minute’s silence they are ruining for the majority.
 

'civilized the world' and somehow the most resource rich nation on the planet is one of the poorest. hmm. seems a bit like enforced white supremacy to me that the UK was involved with along with some other colonial powers. But thank you for gracing us with your almighty presence.
 
The Queen Mother's coronation crown with the priceless Koh-I-Noor diamond rests atop the Queen Mother's coffin. The 105.6-carat Kohinoor diamond -- also spelled Koh-i-noor or Koh-i-Nûr -- was mined in India thousands of years ago and is one of the largest cut diamonds in the world.
 


The queen's crown and Royal staff all contain millions worth of stolen diamonds. Why wouldn't you boo?
 
At work we often have a minures silence for one thing or another. It's usually preceeded by a message that says 'there will be a minutes silence. If you don't wish to partake, then please respect the wishes of those that do'. In other words, keep silent no matter what your views are!
My argument is....if you want a minutes silence, then designate a room for it and you can all go there and be silent. Don't to force me (who hasn't moved from my normal work space) into keeping silent. This smacks of an 'ism' of some kind or the Emporer's New Clothes (you aren't allowed to say anything against it without being blacklisted/ridiculed). Freedom of expression is a fragile thing and we should be very careful not to abuse it.
 
Won't be attending the game but if I was I would remain silent and respectful. I'm an Irishman and the crown wouldn't be on the top of our Christmas card list, but I'd like to think the majority would stay silent for a minute, the Queen did excellent work during the peace process and forgave many of our nationalist figures indiscretions ...... whole other debate that doesn't need to be discussed on her.

But that's just me...... I wouldn't be aghast if people wanted to vent frustrations either. I Think that should be done more towards politicians personally.
