Transcript:
Government’s purpose is to secure peace, or social unity. What is itself one can more efficaciously bring about unity than several.
To rule successfully, several rulers must cooperate, or act as one. The more united they are, the closer they come to acting as one ruler.
In nature, every creature is ruled by one of its parts. Similarly, a human multitude is best ruled by one person.
Experience shows that cities without a king are torn with dissension, while cities with one king enjoy peace, justice, and prosperity.

Monarchy is best form government. I want government that represents and united everyone together no matter you race, gender, religion, and unites us all under one flag and our loyalty to our monarch. God bless the monarchy 👑 ✨

It took me a while before I had to come to terms with the fact that monarchy is easily the best system of government. There was way too many logical holes and jump to conclusions people made when saying how good democracy was that I couldnt ignore.

Theres also the fact that we collectively ignore the history of moat revolutions and their republics. We always heard about the french revolution but we never ever hear about the republic that took its place. We never hear about lyons or the guillotine. We never know about the bodies.

Theres also so much propaganda surrounding democracy that its insufferably hard to actually read about the true history. When you do its like a viel being lifted from your eyes.

Monarchies are the natural way for humans to live in society and if you think monarchies "dissappear for a good reason" or monarchies don't exist in the 21th century" because "it's old" then watch how these new governments keep themselves in power just watch the communists party in China and how they keep all the power between their families and watch how even political parties in democratic societies work it's always the son of the last president go makes it or it's "choose" by the party to keep themselves in power. At least in a monarchy the prince and princess were prepared their whole life to rule and be real leaders

my brother and christ, , , have you heard of the broken crown podcast.

As someone who plays crusader kings none of this is true

[ImperatorZor]

A King does not "Rule Alone". A Human Monarch can only listen to and respond to so much at a time. They are not an AI Singleton which could handle everything from grand military strategy to collecting people's garbage all at once. So instead they delegate. They designate people as Minister of War, Justice, Agriculture, Commerce, Finance, etc. Each group has beneath them sub departments (the Ministry of War has the department of the Navy, Army, Air Force, Military Intelligence, Military procurement, etc) as well as regional sub-departments which each have a staff of officials, specialist officials, support personnel and so forth. These ministries can oppose the Monarchy as without them the monarch is just some guy with a stupid hat.

So the entire line of reasoning is based on a false premise.

i don't see how inherently oppressing the poor is any basis for any form of "best government"

[mlmoreno]

Monarchies died out for a reason. Go read a book!

Are you serious? Is this propaganda? What’s the context and point of this?
