ghostrek Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 (edited) I know this is not the mainstream in American politics but God damn why is it being part of American politics. Monarchism is the most anti-American thing I can think of, for Americans you know it does for the record I know that there are a lot of markers monarchies that are American allies the UK , Japan, Canada Australia New Zealand in the Neverlands ,Denmark are constitutional monarchies and many more absolute and constitutional monarchies that are officially allied or friendly to the US some of them who are monarchists or who have monarchies views are also very prejudicial to different religions for different denominations of said religion Edited January 2 by ghostrek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobdog Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Not really. I mean, monarchists would be one of many fringe groups that don't have any political impact because of the incompatibility of their political beliefs with reality. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but fringe political beliefs are still dangerous. They might not get power right away but they will eventually try or do something drastic like shoot elected official @scoobdog @[classic swim] whatever you know I'm not saying I'm in the right or wrong I'm the same it is incompatible with American political beliefs although a lot of Americans are fascinated with royalty.

There is literally no function for an absolute or constitutional monarch in our current system, or, in fact, through most of the industrial world. If you're worried about a one person gaining absolute power, there are other avenues that actually exist within a republican system where a political strongman can consolidate power. Even in banana republics, strongmen who gain power through military might (kings were derivative of prestate warlords) rarely crown themselves as monarchs because political systems are no longer built around a centralized position.

I'm just saying there's a few people who are with radical views that are dangerous and they're willing to do anything to gain power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bro everyone jokes about Canada, but I swear their fucking geese are massive sleeper cell army that operates off the books "Sorry, Aye! We're here to take over! Would you like syrup and free healthcare?" "No, we have guns... lol" "Sorry! I couldn't hear you over the screams of pain while those geese were pecking your eyes out... did you say no to the syrup, or healthcare?" 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really annoying, he's done this multiple times, and he is the only one in our whole e-community who does this. Take the hint ghostie. You're not going to die if you post a thread with no replies. It happens to all of us at some point. Also I just came from ranting in an "unpopular opinions thread" on a different board I frequent so maybe I haven't gotten off "you know what really grinds my gears" mode yet, lol.

I watched it from conception....he literally made this thread when it was me, him and namak....I can't spell his name rn but we were the only 3 people online...exactly 13 minutes later, he bumped it. My instinct was to say "damn bro, it's 3 people here and one of them is me....do you really want this reply" but I decided against it. But without going off on a tirade here that'll get me actioned, you're absolutely right. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The really sad thing is if he wanted to talk about it THAT badly then fucking use the comment sections of the fucking videos you're referencing in the first fucking place. People actually want to discuss it there, and there are zillions more eyeballs reading those yt comments than reading this board at any given time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
