There appear to be an increasing number of “patriots” who want monarchs these days.
It remains a tiny number to be sure. But the increase is, well.
Curious.
And to see them take their masks off is quite remarkable, at least, they took their masks off half way. They did cloak their tyrannical discussion under the camouflage of a religious discussion with a religious headline so that people would not see it.
I have a curse called curiosity which is why I bothered to click on it.
Back when Rush Limbaugh dominated talk radio, some folks were wearing a button reading, "Suspend the Constitution! Make Rush king!" Given Bill Clinton's leadership at the time, I thought about wearing one of those.
Monarchy or dictatorship — if you got a “good guy” or “the guy with whom I agree” - then a lot of stuff gets done.
But I think the only modern example of this was Lee Kwan Hua from Singapore. He modernized singapore rapidly, but imprisoned folks who opposed him - so if you were one of those then he was bad.
I think the Republican form of democracy is the least bad form of government for now. Monarchy is just “do i want to be ruled forever by this idiot?”
