I think I would take monarchy over whatever this corpo hellscape is. At least a monarch can be overthrown. How can you overthrow a multi-national corporation?
jeff bezos is a monarch. he has an empire with people doing literal slave-work and practically untouchable by the judicial system. if you are not willing to overthrow him now, you won't be willing to overthrow a "literal" monarch. same goes for every billionaire.
as there are middlemen protecting the billionaires now -like mass media, military industrial complex, heavily armed local police, union busters, corrupt judicial system etc.- there will be middlemen protecting the monarch then.
you think you would be willing to overthrow the monarch because it's not real, a fantasy. but you're willingly turning a blind eye to the exact same thing that is real and happening right now.
I’m not following. You’d be ok with risking beheading to overthrow a monarch. But you won’t overthrow a corporate CEO?
You think corporations don’t exist under monarchy?
no, I don't. They have far more complex structures. Just because you remove a CEO, does not mean the whole company will go away. How many CEOs have been fired and replaced? Plenty. These companies still remain though, corrupting everything around them.
How many monarchs have been replaced? Plenty. Just think of anchient Egypt.
Same way you overthrow a king. Without exaggeration or sarcasm, we can’t really discuss those methods civilly, but history can always repeat itself.
I think a lot of people here have a weird understanding of monarchy and revolutions.
When the entirety of your experience with monarchies and revolutions is a line in a history textbook, it seems a lot easier and less painful than it is.
What makes you think a monarchy would do anything to combat a corpo hellscape? If history's any indication, they'd probably make all the CEOs lords and turn everybody else into an indentured peasantry.
We're so close lol... for now
