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

2018-05-17 14:50:22 UTC  

we dont need to make king head of state

2018-05-17 14:50:31 UTC  

we can make king and pm equals

2018-05-17 14:50:36 UTC  

as they hold ifferent authorites

2018-05-17 14:50:39 UTC  

I just don't see a reason at all to limit yourself to just a few of the people

2018-05-17 14:50:56 UTC  

I don't see anything that favors monarchy really 🤷

it might be aesthetic but you wouldn't want your fate being decided by aesthetics, but by merit

2018-05-17 14:51:55 UTC  

every single european monarchy ultimately went down the shitter

2018-05-17 14:52:14 UTC  

of those which didn't, they were gradually cessing their power to the parliament anyway 🤷

2018-05-17 14:52:15 UTC  

thats why I keep saying that its not an absolute monarchy

2018-05-17 14:53:21 UTC  

do you think there is anyone in your country more capable to govern than Merkel? 🤷

2018-05-17 14:53:27 UTC  

do you think a king would do better?

2018-05-17 14:53:52 UTC  

a king would hold different authorities than merke

2018-05-17 14:54:04 UTC  

and I dont think merkel is the pinnacle of governance

2018-05-17 14:54:22 UTC  

merkel would exist next to the king

2018-05-17 14:54:27 UTC  

if you go by aesthetics then you can have monarchy just like some European countries do - just for official things, but they hold no power whatsoever

2018-05-17 14:54:28 UTC  

on an equal scale with different powers

2018-05-17 14:54:38 UTC  

thats pointless tho

2018-05-17 14:55:51 UTC  

Merkel might not be the best politician in world history but she's an elite politician I don't see a reason to think otherwise, she's been able to maintain power in the most powerful country in Europe for all those years, and some of her schemes are quite impressive tbh like the same-sex marriage thing before the last elections that basically fucked SPD and die Gruene in the ass kek

2018-05-17 14:56:12 UTC  

do you know why merkel holds power?

2018-05-17 14:56:20 UTC  

because 40% of germans are old people

2018-05-17 14:56:24 UTC  

maybe its not Bismarck tier stuff but she's fine by me 🤷

2018-05-17 14:56:46 UTC  

it might be that

2018-05-17 14:56:51 UTC  

but I really don't see anyone more capable

2018-05-17 14:56:55 UTC  

all the people who vote cdu vote cdu because they always voted cdu

2018-05-17 14:57:02 UTC  

thats true

2018-05-17 14:57:07 UTC  

but that doesnt mean merkel is fine

2018-05-17 14:57:15 UTC  

its just that everyone else is incompetent

2018-05-17 14:57:18 UTC  

the best you can have 🤷

2018-05-17 14:57:32 UTC  

I mean I'm not really into this kind of thinking

2018-05-17 14:57:56 UTC  

if someone is the best I would rather say he's good and appreciate him instead of saying all the other people are incompetent

2018-05-17 14:57:59 UTC  

the bueraucratic machine we have in place only allows for small grey lumpf of human beings to get anywhere close to power

2018-05-17 14:58:08 UTC  

so I dont think that she is the best we can have
