Was he right? Is Monarchy the only choice?

>> No.12993640

Yeah, if that monarch is me
Realistically, that's the only way anyone is truly happy. If they're the monarch, then all is right in the world (for them).

if that's what you took from Leviathan then you need to work on your reading comprehension. Hobbes says you can confer sovereign power to either a monarchy or an assembly of men, and both constitute a legitimate contractural authority as long as they are the sole authority and they facilitate civil society. Yes, Hobbes prefers monarchy, but not even he says it is the only choice.

Constitutional Monarchy is not a bad option.

I don’t think it’s that bad, but it definitely isn’t fast enough for this modern era. Democracy has some pros and cons as well :3

I wouldn’t mind taking this swing to Aristocracy and mobilizing some intellectual movement to create a new Aristocracy out of people who actually care about the soul.

Monarchy is much faster than democracy.

Why is it that when I see a sexy Asian lady scrolling, and I creep up behind her to see what she's looking at, it's never 4chan? And why do they have to make mace hurt so much? I really think half the potency would get the job done.

The edicts can be issued fast enough, but the issue of concern is that the king really wouldn’t care enough to constantly issue them.

Monarchies are really best for smaller countries. I think Holland still has a Constitutional Monarchy, yes? It works fine there now. Would NOT work for us. Wouldn’t be a point to it tbqh

A constitutional monarchy is just a democracy with a stapled on tourist attraction, the fuck are you on about

What the hell does this even mean? I honestly don’t even know what you’re referring to by this or what your point even is.

As it stands, I reiterate: in such a fast-paced technological world the United States is in we have two options : Capitalist Democracy, or Capitalist Aristocracy. (Barring socialism)

Monarchy, constitutional or not, is out of the question. The demands for the country are too high :3
