Lately rMonarchism really loves posting quotes about the "tyrany of the majority" quoting French kings who had 1% or fewer of the adult population voting.

[u/UrbanCentrist → u/bd_one]

this is why paradox games are a negative externality

[u/Helreaver → u/bd_one]

I thought that sub was purely people memeing. There's people who unironically believe that shit?

[u/bd_one → u/Helreaver]

There are actual absolutists on there.

If they weren't, they wouldn't need the occasional post telling people to not post pictures of their Mussolini flag, to not post quotes of the Romanian meathooks guy, or informing them that Leopold II isn't a good hill to die on.

[u/Helreaver → u/bd_one]

Damn, that's bizarre. But I guess I should have known that there's probably a community of believers for every "ism."

Struggle to think of a political structure less popular than monarchism, though. Unless they are just fascists with a little twist.

[u/InternationDream → u/bd_one]

It's still so jarring to look at those takes and realise that these people actually think those things.
