''Karl, if the king does bad, and the people fail to overthrow him, then what?
What if the king takes away the right for people to overthrow or criticize the monarch? Then you're left as the Russian Empire- a few elites who are elite because they were the children of elites. And everyone else is a peasant.''
>implying it hasn't happened within republics many times.
Rome was a republic for more than 100 yrs when it fell, The Ottoman empire was a constitutional monarchy, Byzantines fell because they were at war with another Kingdom, Russia fell because of a powerful minority of usurpers, no evidence Spain lost its empire BECAUSE it was a monarchy, Austria lost its empire because it lost a war.

You're playing word games in order to appear intelligent now. No citation showing it was BECAUSE of its parliament.
''Absolute monarchies don't work''
Literally worked in countless places for thousands of years. See any European country in the middle ages.
''- Both have one head of state wielding absolute pwoer
- Both appoint people based on nepotism
- Both will silence any opposition
- Both think they have a divine/natural right to rule this way
- Both leave most people living in a pretty sucky way.''
Cherrypicking
''But it's OK, of course, if it's a white doing these things''
Never mentioned race also thats a character attack.
Gazi Kodo is a nationali socialist I am a monarchist and am not a racist. You're just using character attacks in order to discredit me instead of addressing my arguments. You're like a 5 yr old. Go cry to your mommy, kid.
