When to change dynasties? Peasant 03/16/19 (Sat) 18:17:32 No.6466

If your here you've probably already figured out why we need a monarch. Writings like Seraphim Rose have done an excellent job explaining why the French Revolution was a mistake.

Have we considered what happens when a monarch needs to be replaced? For instance Queen Victoria did a bangup job, but Queen Elizabeth was a shitshow who has done nothing but import fresh peasants to replace the angry natives as the empire curmbles.

Confucius (and Mencius) had a concept for this that is entirely compatible with Christianity. In a Christian monarchy, Christ is eternal King and monarchs merely act as defacto regent until he returns. Sometimes this regent needs replaced, how do you tell when? Can you kill a monarch without ruining the whole monarchy and devolving into anarchy? We used to do it all the time in Europe.

What would you do to guard against incompetent monarchs?

>What would you do to guard against incompetent monarchs?

I keep hearing this word "incompetent" tossed around, but what does it really mean nowadays? It's often the opportunists and monarchomachists who peddle the idea of "incompetent" monarchs. They call anything they don't like "incompetent".

>For instance Queen Victoria did a bangup job, but Queen Elizabeth

Queen Elizabeth II is a fair monarch, but the times are bad. Very bad.

>Confucius (and Mencius) had a concept for this that is entirely compatible with Christianity

The Mandate of Heaven is not the revolving door of contractual dumping. Dynasties could last centuries and generations. Today people want to dethrone a dynasty the moment they sneeze and something goes wrong. This view of the Mandate of Heaven as on par with Lockean convention of removing tyrants is pretty flawed. Confucianism embraces propriety and subordination, not this doctrine of rebellion…

> In a Christian monarchy, Christ is eternal King and monarchs merely act as defacto regent until he returns. Sometimes this regent needs replaced, how do you tell when?

The problem is when a power decides to do this, they are assuming de facto power over monarchy and infer to have an aristocracy. This makes me ask – are you looking to secure an aristocratic government or a monarchical government? There are certain means to both, and monarchical government means balancing the aristocratic and democratic elements as a check… not the other way around. When someone else is boss over the monarch, it is they who assume de facto power and threaten the de jure position of being an essential monarchy.

>Can you kill a monarch without ruining the whole monarchy and devolving into anarchy? We used to do it all the time in Europe.

Uh huh. We live in an ideological age where political activists aim to completely snuff out monarchy. I don't care how many times pretenders or monarchs were killed, but the concept of regicide is repugnant. You autists abuse the fuck out of crybabying about regicide and when to haul the guillotine.

OP is a faggot.

Death to all peasants more concerned with killing kings rather than restoring them. I am so tired of negotiating with people who put their ideologies first and bring forward this disgusting notion of regicide.

Read this, OP.

Confucianism goes bottom up with the values on family and obliging with authority from your father to your emperor. It is central to the worldview of following goodwill. It is not this legalism and so forth that the liberal crybaby brigade wants you to believe.

OP faggot,

I'll give you one example where I tolerate it.

Killing this invader. On the battlefield. Your foreign enemy.

Nonetheless, I don't like revolutionaries

I trust myself to be of little significance on their minds and carry on my life. We already have incompetent leaders and rulers, population and values.

Don't give the monarch so much power that society functioning hinges on him not being shit.

Who said it did? Honestly, I've never heard this one before.
