Many anons like to praise 'experiment' monarchies or other forms of government. These turn out to become republicanism behind the veneer of a crown. A constitutional monarchy. Or, a direct democracy. I don't see enough forms behind the roles of monarchs. Because two is better than one, I am throwing out the concept of 'diarchy'. Two monarchs; or, a monarch and a 'leadership' rule like 2nd pic 'Duce'. This is experimental and expands the role of monarchs into two.

>what fascinates you about diarchy

I fancy the idea of two leaders rather than an assembly or clique. Outside of the autocratic and absolute form of monarchy like the Imperial Tsardom or Kingdom of France, I am impressed with the idea of a diarchy.

>inb4 this government is prone to splits

I still find it better. No political body will last forever. Of course.

This is your mind on republicanism. I said it was an oligarchy too. To suggest it was a full on republic is insincere. They also had kings take on influential roles too and the oligarchy is something that just grew upon itself the more powerful and influential Sparta became.

Clare Gannaway, the gallery’s curator of contemporary art, said the aim of the removal was to provoke debate, not to censor. “It wasn’t about denying the existence of particular artworks.”

The work usually hangs in a room titled In Pursuit of Beauty, which contains late 19th century paintings showing lots of female flesh.

Gannaway said the title was a bad one, as it was male artists pursuing women’s bodies, and paintings that presented the female body as a passive decorative art form or a femme fatale.

“For me personally, there is a sense of embarrassment that we haven’t dealt with it sooner. Our attention has been elsewhere … we’ve collectively forgotten to look at this space and think about it properly. We want to do something about it now because we have forgotten about it for so long.”

Gannaway said the debates around Time’s Up and #MeToo had fed into the decision.

The removal itself is an artistic act and will feature in a solo show by the artist Sonia Boyce which opens in March. People can tweet their opinion using #MAGSoniaBoyce.

What does /monarchy/ think about local democracy? The kings would still make laws for the whole country, but the local autonomy would be exercised by the people of the town/region. Is it a good idea, or is democracy at any level unacceptable?

Thread dedicated to the discussion of Sir Robert Filmer and his political writings. He is a strong proponent of absolute monarchy and Divine Right of Kings. Much like Bossuet in ways.

>John Locke refuted him in his first treatise

It doesn't mean Robert Filmer's political writings are invalid. There is still worthy concepts and points to discuss. There are things said outside the Biblical foundation of Robert Filmer's worldview. Many traditionalists still see the family as a counterweight to the individual and collective. There is no reason to not investigate for yourself and take John Locke's word for it. I know people say 'He demolished Robert Filmer'. I think it's irresponsible to not take both works into account before saying so.

Robert Filmer espoused authority of patria potestas belonging to the natural origin of paternal monarchy. The origin goes from family, to tribe, to nation. Robert Filmer was a strong proponent of paternal monarchy and authority beginning with clans. As seen in the line 'The first kings were fathers of families'. Whether you dispute the idea of Adam being a patriarch, it still is important to recognize the truth in this concept. The monarchy is a royal family and there is some validity in paternal authority. You are welcome to debate the sex and equality in the household between man and woman, or talk in defense of the pagan ritual. The paternal and inherited authority sounds the most benevolent and true to what a monarchy is. This is contrasted to Hobbes who denied this in Leviathan. Although Leviathan goes into great detail about the place of paternal authority in Commonwealth.

Expanded PLC post

Sounds like the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth, basically nobles elected a king, only nobility was inherited from the father, so by the time it ended something like 10-15% of the population could vote, which funnily enough was comparable or potentially greater than the early United States

Sounds elegant but it devolved into a clusterfuck, the nobles after a point kept electing foreign dynasties, probably the worst offender was the Liberium Veto. Basically every legislative session could be vetoed by any one representative, note the entire session not an individual law. Turns out foreign powers just started bribing legislators, nobles and electors to paralyze the kingdom and the PLC didn't recover ending up being carved up by its neighbours.

Yeah that wasn't my concept at all. The concept was that the Citizens could elect the next Monarch from among the children of the previous Monarch, upon said Monarch's death or abdication. There are of course, many potential variations.

This is a slight misconception. The Liberum Veto worked surprisingly well as long as we had a certain political culture. The idea was: no decision is made without unanimous agreement, so the people kept negotiating until, for the good of the commonwealth, an agreement was reached. Then, one nobleman by the name of Siciński left the congregation, thus breaking off the negotiations. This was a precedent that allowed for the veto. This principle was in power theoretically since 1505, Siciński left a local congregation in 1623 I think. In all that time, no one broke off the proceedings. Still, high political culture and patriotism allowed the system to continue and it is only in the XVIIIth century that no new legislation was passed due to external influence, but mostly because the average noble stopped being the multilingual educated patriot that he used to be. You also could not veto an election.

How do you compromise individual sovereignty with monarchy? The notion that the individual is law-maker and sovereign. Individual justice and individual choice. With monarchy, the rule of one. The rule of dynastic, hereditary rulers. It has conflicts and potential benefits for a libertarian monarchy. Where does it fall into harmony?

>individual sovereignty

I admit, I am very skeptical. I find limitless justifications for regicide with this notion. I don't think there is a government on this planet that truly observes individual sovereignty with utmost respect and absolute dignity. People? Tell that to the demagogues. Individuals? Individuals have separate notions of sovereignty and respect for other other individuals. My compromise is an individual sovereign – a monarch. This is my bias, but I am willing to listen.

Other monarchists are welcome to speak for their notion of sovereignty.

>If the king commands you to do something so sacrilegious, nobody has to abide with it and should outright reject it as nonviolently as possible.

No arguments there, again it's one of the reasons I'm sympathetic to monarchy at all. You do seem to acknowledge that even with "divine right," the king is subject to his own laws and can be disobeyed if his orders are sacrilegious, and run contrary to ethics. You aren't really pushing for taxes so I have to assume that you'd be fine with a voluntary payment system if you thought it was functional, so I'll stop beating the coercion drum. You also implied (pardon me if I'm misreading you here) that you'd be fine with a voluntary system of verdict enforcement, if you thought it was feasible, but at present don't think it's feasible. My one point of contention, and a place where I don't think either of us could change the mind of the other, is the idea that the king's word must be obeyed as long as it's not immoral or sacrilegious.

I would prefer it if any man could say he no longer accepts the king as his king, and wishes to terminate the contract (as in a tangible, worldly contract, not some social contract BS) he has with him to provide protection services. Because of what you think on divine right I don't think I could get you to agree to this, and that's fine. However, let me go back to something you said when we were discussing the king as a monopolist–you said you were fine with the idea of multiple sovereigns, each with their own territory, right? Well, I like to consider individualism to be the logical conclusion of that: just as it's okay for there to be sovereigns of different countries, so it's okay to have sovereigns of different provinces, yes? So why not sovereign of a county? Of a village? And so on until you reach the smallest constituent unit, which you can say is either the individual and the family. I don't expePost too long.

>the king is subject to his own laws

Even with that, I'd contest the king is subject to God and the consequences of his laws, not that he -should- be subject to them. I think that's really where we split. From my pov, this is the way things should be. A king's word generally should be obeyed unless it goes against your faith with God, who is above in the hierarchy. It's not about laws, but hierarchy, more importantly. For example, an Emperor and Pope to balance Christendom. A monarchy to balance with aristocracy/democracy. At least, that's what I think.

Let me put it this way: I don't' think a monarch can step out, decide to speak for abolishing all property, and suddenly *poof* it's gone. From the absolutist perspective, arbitrary power is so far from absolute to actually work, it might as well be doubted. The imperial/royal maintains his significant place in sovereignty and discipline while still being absolute.

He's another kind of anarchist. It's not that I post that quote out of admiration for him. I just like the image/words in context with what I said. I honestly don't have a strong opinion other than I'm not well versed in thinking in terms of anarchy. Given some of the stuff I posted, like with Maistre, I doubt I would really agree with his politics.

I have a pretty generic of the term anarchism and don't really recognize it. I've definitely had my pitches with anarchists on the other side of the spectrum and there's such I could say about it.

I can respect that, but it only works if the two opposing groups have a vested interest in staying opposed to each other rather than colluding. We tried the checks/balances thing in the states, for instance, but once the three branches realized there was no real reason for them to oppose each other, they just acted in concert to increase each other's power, mostly through the courts–the judiciary interprets whatever arbitrary power abuse the executive or legislature has committed as "constitutional," making it legal, and in return they become more forgiving of judicial activism, allowing the judiciary to pass policy from the bench that gives the other two even more justification for their tyranny, and so the cycle repeats. I don't know enough about the relationship between kings and christendom, or between the aristocrats and the king, to judge whether those relationships fostered this kind of collusion, but from what I know of history it doesn't seem like they did, or at least not as much as our system did.

you've changed my mind on the social contract, or at least you've opened my eyes to the degree that kind of thought influenced me even though I had thought I rejected it.

Did Absolutist monarchies cause the french revolution and thus create the series of events to their own self destruction? Is there any worth in an Absolutist monarchy? How does /monarchy/ feel about the revolution in general?

How do you cope with it?

The democratic people who would see us reactionaries, from left and right, will deter us for being too reactionary and not radical enough. Those who worship democracy as the perfect government perceive us through their lenses as idiots. The others will boast about the decline of our civilization and gleefully admit the world is much better off without imperialism, monarchies, and leadership. The rest of us watch from a somber distance as the world collapses, waiting for the aristocratic elements to re-assert themselves; we wait for the roots to grow back, but the corrosive elements of democratic thought and radicalism threaten us everyday.

How does the monarchist feel about dealing with them? The anti-reactionary elements, the demagogue-wannabes, and the radicals who spout among the ruins, they're all dissenting against us.

Just share your feels. It's okay.

>Its Another LARP board

Ok lets get this out of the way.

Absolutism ended on the 30th of Janurary 1649 when people realized that the divine right of Kings didnt actually mean all that much on account of the Kings Head and Body being on separate sides of the room

for the next few centuries the Monarchies of Europe chugged along slowly being whittled away by Liberal-Democracy and the rise of capitalism breaking the landed families previously almost universal grip on wealth

this coupled with advances in technology simply made Monarchy and Feudalism less efficient which over all led to its abolition throughout the entirety of the developed world (Western Monarchies are Republics in name only)

As a General rule attempts to restore monarchy after the divine right of kings was done away with has always failed

If the monarch's rule is primarily spiritual, then why does he need to be head of state at all? He could be a voluntary actor on the market, and sell his services as a monarch to those who desire his guidance and authority. To quote an overused line, good ideas don't require force to implement.

Depends. You're an idiot if you think "Europeans can't-du nuffins wrong, suh", and probably retarded if you think the Semite and European has been in an eternal battle between good and evil.

Also, while I love imperialism, I don't like the idea of one civilzation conquering the entire globe, whether Oriental or Occident.

You speak of it like it's subjective, as if there's more than one way of looking at it. It's sinful degeneracy, you sodomite.

We are all children in the eyes of God, some groups are just more childish than others because they have yet to be civilized properly and fully. That's not a call for mass migration, as that doesn't make them any more civilized it only makes them strangers in a strange land. They are children prone to violent outbursts who should remain in their distant lands working to better themselves while secular and religious figures help to civilize them. The nation-state is a meme that is antithetical to traditionalism and proved to have devastating effects not just on the monarchies of the world, but one the globe's general populous as a whole, causing unnecessary suffering and carnage. Things were better for the disparate peoples of the Danube when the Austrian Empire governed them all, the same goes for the vast majority of decolonized states and their respective imperial overlords.

>Views on fornication?

Outside of marriage it's a sin.

>On a scale from 1 to 10 how pathetic do you rate the ancreeps from /liberty/? Why?

Great show.

What else can you expect, really? By the end of the series, the remnant of the abolished Empire-in-Exile actually lost the Goldenbaum Emperor because he ran away from home. It shows a stark contrast between the Empire and the Alliance–the Empire is ruled by those with the right to rule, while the Alliance is ruled by powerhungry monsters who care about not their "republican values," but holding on to their authority. This is made evident once it turns out that Yang Wen-li cannot expose a government scandal due to the fact that the Alliance lacks a free press. It's really good for getting people into monarchism, as it basically takes a Bonapartist point of view which many republicans will more easily accept.

I'm calling Christians on /monarchy/, specifically all Christians who adore monarchy for its ceremonial value and heritage: respect the pagans, and be polite in religious discourse.

Europe's pagan heritage deserves respect. We ought to appreciate the pagan origins of the ceremonies and beliefs surrounding it. These deistic beliefs like the scepter and orb, along with the symbols and beliefs. Don't disparage the spiritual culture before and after Christianity. And Christianity does hold weight for the benefits and consequences we see in Western civilization.

Pagans have ground in criticizing the civilization in its current state. I'm not asking Christians to take criticism lightly. Just take the weight of being polite first.

This thread will remain for a mutual discussion on pagan and Christian influences on monarchy as a structure.

Pagan monarchies in Europe had a ritualistic divine right between a king and a feminine goddess. In Ireland, Celtic kings also partook in ceremonies where their kingship had a right in a ceremony with a bond between a feminine power. It isn't too patriarchal or matriarchal. It is a simple unity of the sexes. This rite of passage became a king's right. In Arthurian legend, the Lady of the Lake gives Excalibur to King Arthur, for example.

The origin of the scepter and orb ceremony also originate with pagan influences and Christian ceremony in its own right. There is a Germanic explanation that the scepter resembled a hammer and the orb was a rock, and power coming down from lightning and thunder.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globus_cruciger

To citizens of the Roman Empire, the plain round globe held by Jupiter represented the world, or the universe, as the dominion held by the emperor. A 2nd-century coin from the reign of Emperor Hadrian shows the Roman goddess Salus with her foot upon a globus, and a 4th-century coin from the reign of Emperor Constantine I shows him with a globus in hand.

Okay, I said almost, and it resembles a man's right to his house and his right to justice and his right to his property. It isn't divine like libertarians/ancaps put it, but it isn't far from the concept of a right. Biblical constitutionalists and their concept of a right, imo, isn't much different or even opposed to the Divine Right of Kings. I think of King Charles I who secured the liberty of the land and died when a ruthless arbitrary government used brute force to kill him as sovereign and proclaim their justice.

THE GREAT PSYCH-OP

Individual and collective is a republican game.

The origin of the individual and society begins with the family. No individualists or partisans belong here. The individualist wants to take advantage of society, and the partisan seeks to dismantle the individual. These worldviews are incompatible. They are impractical. They aren't functional in the real world.

Don't you hate it, /monarchy/? Tell me you know what I mean.

progressives are always taking liberal ideals and re-introducing them like poison. If there was a monarchist understanding of society, from father and mother, 'mr' and 'mrs', 'first name' and 'last name', there wouldn't be so many problems like hyper-individualist fluidity across the board.
