I did not think that to begin with; I am principally a monarchist. The American Revolution was exceptional as you can hardly view King George as a father figure to the colonies.
To be a monarchist does not mean to support every monarchy. The monarch has obligations, and great many of them. Some cannot hack it and lose their crowns. That typically, and again not always, a worse evil replaces them is another story.
“”To be a monarchist does not mean to support every monarchy.””
Agreed!
In the case of Russia, the US was completely following evil when it supported the overthrow of the Romanovs.There was nothing innocent about it.
To add to that the US supported Stalin who killed even more people than Hitler in joining a selfish alliance with with Stalin.
When people like Bishop Fulton Sheen and Cardinal Spellman spoke out against the evils of Stalin they were promptly investigated by the FBI and Spellman was labeled with all kinds of falsehood by the American press.
I have read the declassified FBI files of Sheen and Spellman
