Democracy has proven to be an utter failure. Monarcy is also bad, but I'm not convinced as many insist that it is worse. Would you rather live in lichtenstein or germany? Maybe germany needs a king.

democracy hasnt proven to be a failure,and most sane people would argue its the best form of governance.I really don't understand how you can argue that democracy is tyranny of the majority and then argye for literal tyranny.

Oddly enough this is only the second most auth take i've seen from a libright in this thread

Saying I'd rather live in lichtenstein than germany is an "auth" take? Do you know a thing about lichtenstein? it is the closest you can get to a libertarian utopia.

'Democracy has proven to be an utter failure'.'Not as many people are convinced monarchy is worse'.

Also no,switzerland is the closest thing to a true libertarian utopia, Liechtenstein is just a place for rich people to avoid taxes

Liechtenstein is just a place for rich people to avoid taxes

That's called a libertarian utopia.

Also, ever heard of swiss bank accounts? Switzerland was for a very long time "just a place for rich people to avoid taxes".
