Monarchy is cringe and bluepilled
Im sympathetic to Monarchists but fail to see how it would work in the US since no king.
Monarchy seems like a long term version of fascism lol
eh
Monarchy is the most heavenly form of government
some would agree
> let's just give the king's son power and see what happens lmao how could this go wrong
Monarchy is bad tbh
it just seems like fascism with a defined line of succession
the monarchy dice is a bad roll a lot of the time
The great chain of being extends from God down to the King down to the family patriarch
Best Roman emperors were all adopted. Circulation of elites is important
@Sam Southern - TN Not really Fascism was an attempt to get close to what monarchy was before it was overthrown by Communists.
I'm way late to that conversation, but @Goose "What have they conserved?" Is may favourite.
Fascism was trying to fill the void monarchy left, not build on it
Let's just let Ivanka be the next president because muh monarch's child
Monarchy is not fascism and fascism is not attempt to make a secular Monarchy.
To be fair to the line is succession bit, I kinda see the logic that someone trained from birth to lead would theoretically be very well suited to lead.
@MrDefault okay let's let Baron be president without knowing what kind of person he'll grow up to be
@Sam Southern - TN agreed 100% it just sucks that it doesnt always work out that way
@Sam Southern - TN If the first ruler was the one that was genetically the best of the tribe it would make sense that those genes would be passed down from father to son.
Imagine unironically not supporting a Barron cyber monarchy
this tbh ^
☝🏻
If genes determined 100% of behavior, monarchy would be great.
In real life, it's a massive dice roll.
How many of you actually turned out politically similar to your parents?
okay I'm out for now. Gotta finish a paper. anyone want to continue this autism later ping me
My jeans are cool.
@Jacob The church did play a huge role in filtering out unsavory monarchs.
I prefer basketball shorts
uhh ya I'd rather not give the Catholic Church any political power but that's probably not a topic for this server
Lol
Yeah
Rome was strongest when the Senate familial clans (the Gens) were pure and intact
A heritidary nobility provides a genepool for good rulers
This was Plato's ideal as well
New rules of primogeniture could be established that factor in genetic pedgree as well as accomplishments in adult life, the Gens Imperator could be renewed every generation by the election of a new rule based on a series of standards to draw from a general aristocratic class
There's a big debate around the role of the Aristocracy and the role it plays in a monarchy. Not a lot of love for the merchant class
Circulation of genes is essential but it should be slow and we'll selected
