and one way to define elite is by going with royalty
yeah then why can't they run for the top office?
they can
in parliament
only royalty can
top office = head of the state
we dont need to make king head of state
we can make king and pm equals
as they hold ifferent authorites
I just don't see a reason at all to limit yourself to just a few of the people
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
every single european monarchy ultimately went down the shitter
of those which didn't, they were gradually cessing their power to the parliament anyway 🤷
thats why I keep saying that its not an absolute monarchy
do you think there is anyone in your country more capable to govern than Merkel? 🤷
do you think a king would do better?
a king would hold different authorities than merke
and I dont think merkel is the pinnacle of governance
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
on an equal scale with different powers
thats pointless tho
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
do you know why merkel holds power?
because 40% of germans are old people
maybe its not Bismarck tier stuff but she's fine by me 🤷
it might be that
but I really don't see anyone more capable
all the people who vote cdu vote cdu because they always voted cdu
thats true
but that doesnt mean merkel is fine
its just that everyone else is incompetent
the best you can have 🤷
I mean I'm not really into this kind of thinking
if someone is the best I would rather say he's good and appreciate him instead of saying all the other people are incompetent
the bueraucratic machine we have in place only allows for small grey lumpf of human beings to get anywhere close to power
so I dont think that she is the best we can have
oonly the best we are allowed to have
do you really think Merkel isn't fine? of course some of her decisions were controversial, some were just utter shit(though I can see some reasoning in them anyway), but after all your country is doing graet
