I found it really surprising that The Guardian out of all publications published this article. They're normally extremely liberal and woke when it comes to political issues.
Honestly, I can actually agree with this take. Liberal democracies have descended into mob rule over insignificant issues while the leaders are invertebrates that are incapable of finding their own ass with both hands and all the while, a class of rich oligarchs are getting richer and directing society according to their vision.
What the West needs is strong and decisive leaders that can actually work on unfucking their own countries without having to worry about political action committees, lobbying, corrupt officials and all that crap. Even people like Ron DeSantis aren't going to be able to do what needs to be done under a democratic framework, so it would only make sense to return to monarchy or other more autocratic forms of government.
Charles is the current King.
He is a climate change cultist and part of the WEF.
You cannot make a positive case for monarchy when your damn monarch will be part of the oligarchy who destroyed your country when it was a liberal democracy.
Monarchy is good only in theory.
It would be good if your monarch was a wise benevolent ruler but that is not going to be the case.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Monarchy is not the solution to our current problems.
While that's true, why not find a new king then? Someone who will actually be a wise benevolent ruler? These people exist and they can help save their own countries if placed in the right positions.
If we can't even do that, then the WEF might as well have won and there's nothing we can do about it except pray that papa Putin will launch the nukes and destroy the current world order.
Also, I'd disagree that absolute powers corrupts absolutely. I would instead argue that power doesn't corrupt, instead it reveals. It reveals what kind of person someone really is.
Society has both plenty of wannabe tyrants who lack the power to act on their dark impulses, and good people who could lead us to a better future but they lack the power as well. Give someone power, and you'll find out which group they're in.
How are you going to appoint a new king instead of Charles in the U.K?
You seem to be wrapped up in the notion that single individuals can fix all of our problems. That is a very simplistic way of looking at a multi-faceted problem where all of our major institutions have become rotten.
There are very clear flaws to our current status quo in the west but replacing it with monarchy is not the easy answer you believe it to be.
How are you going to appoint the benevolent wise man as your king?
Through voting?
What happens when the easily manipulated general populace appoints someone like Brandon to be king?
Think of what can go wrong not just what can go right.
Under an absolutist monarchy, kings rely on a certain amount of popular support to stay in power. If they fall below that level of support, they will be overthrown. The people will revolt or they'll be assassinated.
Trying to reform the system or switch from democracy to another system through peaceful means is not going to work. Like you mentioned, the institutions are completely rotten and there's a more insidious problem that the West is dealing with.
It's the importation of aliens and foreigners that has been ongoing for quite some time now.
"It is also a habit of tyrants to prefer the company of aliens to that of citizens at table and in society; citizens, they feel, are enemies, but aliens will offer no opposition. " - Aristotle
So it is, and reform becomes ever more unlikely as demographics change, for demographics are destiny. The foreigners and illegal aliens will receive handouts from the corrupt government and in turn, they will give their loyalty. For a time, until they achieve majority and most likely attempt to seize power themselves.
At this point, the only solution that could work in the West is for a revolution or coup to happen and a new regime headed by a strong leader to restore their country to its former greatness and purge the WEF-backed anti-human elements. Whether this is a monarchy or a dictatorship is immaterial, so long as someone is doing what needs to be done.
I'll admit, it's possible that the populace might actually make things worse and the wrong man could get in charge, but doing nothing will only result in the slow destruction of Western countries.
Thankfully, people do seem to be waking up on a large scale. Countries that haven't been completely subverted yet seem to be trying to resist. The Right has had victories in Italy and Sweden, two highly woke countries.
But the same approach is not going to work in countries like the UK or US, which are two party states where your choices are between a corrupt ineffectual party and one that is actively trying to accelerate your destruction.
Sadly I can't really think of much off the top of my head. You're welcome to have a debate and maybe I'll remember something or come up with something quote-worthy though?

Got any more cool monarchist quotes?
I'm serious--I need them for a little project of mine, and I don't trust any search engine to give me good stuff here.
