Honestly, most of Aydin's video essays are worth a watch. She is really good at what she does and breaking it down, to the point I will even overlook her being an unironic Monarchist in the year of our lord 2024.
My only complaint I have about Aydins' stuff is 1) It's typically a solid block of information with no pause(not a bad thing, but...) and 2) I would kill to have a proper essay/transcript so I can reference everything she brings up later as need be.
I wish Youtube Essayers as a whole would just write their shit down so I can read it.
(Also, what the hell is it with Monarchists popping up as of late? I could venture a few guesses there...)

At least from what has been the case with most of them I have seen (including Aydin and one of her cohost Aristocratic Utensil), it is because they think that democracy is a scam and something that will only ever lead to tyranny, and that an absolute monarch will take away the "chaos" of a system by making all of the choices for their citizens. And they will inevitably have the best interest of their citizens at heart since they dont have to worry about being popular enough for an election.
I dont think I have to point to the many examples in history where that is almost exactly the opposite of what actually happened. And more than that they seem to ignore that pretty much every monarch currently in Europe are the ones pushing woke and are usually wildly more woke than any government (you give King Charles unlimited power and the Brits would be begging for parliament back within the week), and ironically I have found many of them dont know history like they claim. Like when Utensil tried to make the case for an American monarchy, and made the argument that the Founding Fathers were just uppity aristocrats who lead the colonials astray and put false ideas of "freedom" into their heads, and that if they had an enemy it was Parliament and they should have appealed to the King if they felt they were being oppressed.
Pretending that, you know, we didnt try that. And that it didnt have decidedly...negative results.
The beauty of dealing with someone who is actively pursuing the scientific method, is that you don't have to worry about their retarded personal choices from time to time, when you have data to compare.

Aydin has so many self-inflicted problems but strangely enough for an e-celeb, they aren't really acts of selfishness. She's kind of pitiful.
