Better to live under a bad monarch than Engage in a Revolution and Regicide

2018-12-20 09:18:18 UTC  

Monarchism was alright

2018-12-20 09:18:27 UTC  

Revolutions have hardly ever resulted in Good Things

2018-12-20 09:18:29 UTC  

But its no longer viable in the modern world

2018-12-20 09:18:39 UTC  

Monarchism *was* alright, for its time.

2018-12-20 09:18:41 UTC  

List me One Revolution that was good for that country..

2018-12-20 09:18:49 UTC  

It just overstayed its welcome.

2018-12-20 09:19:18 UTC  

>Better to live under a bad monarch than Engage in a Revolution and Regicide
All revolutions are not the fault of the revolutionaries.

2018-12-20 09:19:20 UTC  

History of man is pretty much Monarchies with Democratic Experiments at times

2018-12-20 09:19:32 UTC  

Every revolution is the fault of the guy in charge.

2018-12-20 09:19:43 UTC  

Those revolutions just didn't magically come out of nowhere

2018-12-20 09:20:04 UTC  

If you let the people grow so discontent with you that they want to chop your head off, it's not the fault of the people.

2018-12-20 09:20:09 UTC  

Is there ever a time where a Leader is universally praised?

2018-12-20 09:20:24 UTC  

"The People"

2018-12-20 09:20:26 UTC  

There are times where a leader is universally hated.

2018-12-20 09:20:39 UTC  

I doubt that

2018-12-20 09:20:43 UTC  

Nikolai II got what was coming for him for decades.

2018-12-20 09:20:54 UTC  

the Most Hated leader and Political Insult in our time is Adolf Hitler

2018-12-20 09:20:55 UTC  

Literally nobody was for him.

2018-12-20 09:21:12 UTC  

Nick didn't deserve what he got, but yeah he was pretty incompetent

2018-12-20 09:21:38 UTC  

He was a good person, but an absolutely terrible and incompetent ruler.

2018-12-20 09:21:56 UTC  

And did the Revolution work out? " The People" aren't these agents without any agency..

2018-12-20 09:22:00 UTC  

are they?

2018-12-20 09:22:08 UTC  

What kind of self-fellating broad strokes armchair history discussion is this

2018-12-20 09:22:39 UTC  

you are welcome to set the course straight oh wise one @εïз irma εïз

2018-12-20 09:22:43 UTC  

"Did the Revolution work out" is another question.

2018-12-20 09:22:48 UTC  

no

2018-12-20 09:22:50 UTC  

it isn't

2018-12-20 09:22:51 UTC  

😂

2018-12-20 09:23:17 UTC  

Literally is. It happened *because* the government failed.

2018-12-20 09:23:26 UTC  

Tell me one time when a Revolution has been better than what was before?

2018-12-20 09:23:33 UTC  

USSR.

2018-12-20 09:23:33 UTC  

The fact that he had relatively widespread support except from social democrats and far leftists until the war completely broke apart the military due to its completely outdated and quasi-Napoleonic structure.

2018-12-20 09:23:53 UTC  

The French Revolution.

2018-12-20 09:23:59 UTC  

Which allowed the country to break up, accelerated by Rasputin which was seen as a national disgrace.

2018-12-20 09:24:04 UTC  

But often exaggerated.

2018-12-20 09:24:23 UTC  

If you think the Communist Revolution in Russia and the French Revolution made things better....

2018-12-20 09:24:28 UTC  

then i have nothing more to say.

2018-12-20 09:24:37 UTC  

@εïз irma εïз I would pinpoint Nikolai putting St. Stolypin away from power as the leading reason behind the acceleration.

2018-12-20 09:24:49 UTC  

Agrarian reforms and the longlasting effects of the freeing of serfs with minor steps towards industrialization helped feed civil disorder.
