When self-interest coincides with the success of the nation, it is benevolent in aims even if not always in methods.

However, "we had to destroy the village to save it" did not sell well with the aristocrats.

They just kept on doing good things, and their descendants do them today.

There is no perfect system. There is no perfection. Only turning up the volume on what is good and decreasing the volume on what is bad.

@dictatordave @h4890 @freepatriot @Wtdrisco Ahem *useful idiot*

@h4890 @dictatordave @freepatriot @Wtdrisco Dig down one layer and it's always punitive

@greyknight @freepatriot

It's an interesting point. The kings chose to step aside instead of producing mass bloodshed.

@greyknight @freepatriot

Lesser aristocrats have titles to land and rule local areas, so they have status just not Big Dog status.

@greyknight @freepatriot

"the self interest must be something that puts ALL on the same level."

Why?

"goal congruency."

The nation + excellence. It is all we need.

"comfort and complacency breeds the incompetent and makes the corruption more possible"

This is why you sequester wealth.

@yukiame @greyknight @freepatriot

It's a cause-effect relationship.

Drinking beer does not make great warriors (B->A) but great warriors drink beer (A->B).

@Wtdrisco @Escoffier @h4890 @freepatriot its cute how self assured they are

@Escoffier @h4890 @freepatriot @Wtdrisco In a way I fall into that category. I welcome total annihilation from God, Nuclear weapons, Aliens, or Volcanic Eruption. It doesn't make a difference just so long as my ideological enemies suffer more than me

Fascism in a way is all about vengeance (justified, sanitized revenge) and thats what I'm certainly here for, regardless of the form that vengeance takes.

yup

@greyknight @freepatriot

the ruler is self-interested, but his self-interest coincides with that of the nation

you have lesser aristocrats to ensure succession

@greyknight @freepatriot

you may mean oligarchy for that last word

@greyknight @freepatriot

in other words, the knaggots dominate

@greyknight @freepatriot

democracy = the rest oppress the best

@greyknight @freepatriot

#monarchism limits the power and influence of retards (aka leftism) and markets, also keeps the foreign out

@freepatriot

#monarchism forever

#democracy never
