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

merkel would exist next to the king

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

our country doesnt seem to have a backbone when it comes to the us and is a slave to the automobil lobby

impressive economy, billion budget surplus, billion trade surplus

many countries absolutely envy you

do you know why we have surplus

i know

it's still surplus 🤷
