if it's elected monarchy why not simply a republic then 🤷

2018-05-17 14:44:27 UTC  

or aristocratic family rather

2018-05-17 14:44:34 UTC  

you know we've had an elected monarchy in Poland

2018-05-17 14:44:45 UTC  

the plebs cant vote tho

2018-05-17 14:44:48 UTC  

dunno if you're familiar with that

2018-05-17 14:44:56 UTC  

our nobles were voting for the king

2018-05-17 14:45:03 UTC  

and it went down the shitter real fast

2018-05-17 14:45:11 UTC  

why?

2018-05-17 14:45:26 UTC  

game of thrones like intrigue?

2018-05-17 14:45:33 UTC  

or was the elected guy just a twat

2018-05-17 14:45:38 UTC

2018-05-17 14:45:45 UTC  

👌

2018-05-17 14:45:48 UTC  

wew

2018-05-17 14:46:05 UTC  

cuz we ended up having a string of idiots on the throne

2018-05-17 14:46:18 UTC  

thats why we need an impartial council

2018-05-17 14:46:25 UTC  

later on any polish-lithuanian king would be effectively elected by foreign powers...

2018-05-17 14:46:53 UTC  

>my idea was creating a commite with no political power that observes the heir during his growth to determine if he is capable, also he will be taught in morals and state theory and such

2018-05-17 14:47:20 UTC  

that's what was more or less happening, I mean not really the first part but the heirs would get education and shit

2018-05-17 14:47:38 UTC  

well the first part is the important one tho

2018-05-17 14:47:52 UTC  

why limit yourself to only those people from the royal family?

2018-05-17 14:48:00 UTC  

less of a hassle

2018-05-17 14:48:03 UTC  

there are thousands even more capable politicians out there

2018-05-17 14:48:27 UTC  

>less of a hassle

2018-05-17 14:48:27 UTC  

royalty has better access to education cuz they are rich and dont need to work

2018-05-17 14:48:33 UTC  

why is "hassle" bad

2018-05-17 14:48:57 UTC  

democratic process was designed to ensure fair and effective transition of power

2018-05-17 14:48:58 UTC  

it works

2018-05-17 14:49:19 UTC  

>royalty has better access to education cuz they are rich and dont need to work
modern elites are basically royalty too, they receive top tier education

2018-05-17 14:49:19 UTC  

thats we still have an elected parliament

2018-05-17 14:49:32 UTC  

thats the whole point

2018-05-17 14:49:37 UTC  

its that the elite

2018-05-17 14:49:39 UTC  

are smart

2018-05-17 14:49:49 UTC  

and one way to define elite is by going with royalty

2018-05-17 14:49:50 UTC  

yeah then why can't they run for the top office?

2018-05-17 14:49:55 UTC  

they can

2018-05-17 14:49:58 UTC  

in parliament

2018-05-17 14:50:02 UTC  

only royalty can

2018-05-17 14:50:10 UTC  

top office = head of the state
