When did you realise that Aristocracy is the best form of governance?
I mean just LOOK at that codpiece
>>18651664Does epistocracy count? If so, a decade ago.
>>18651664"the aristocracy governs" is a tautology, dumbass. it's never ended. what you might be trying to say is that all forms of honor and etiquette are now dead, and that is frustrates you. indeed, it frustrates me, too.
>>18651873What frustrates me is that I cant lynch niggers on the street and wipe my wife for getting out of line.
>>18651664I was born with the feeling feudal theocracy is the only meaningful system, everything else is decay.
>>18652259Warrior kings is the only way.
>retards currently see a bunch of nepofags in positions of power thanks to mommy and daddys money currently enshittifying everything>decide the best system is just further empowering them because they read some story that took place hundreds of years ago (50/50 chance aristocrat involves was either actually competent or just another retards they decided to worship for some odd reason)
>gets maced/flailed/morningstarred/lassoed/caltropedEven before gunpowder, plate was a desperate attempt to prevent sharp/pointy things from hurting the warrior and it worked well enough if the enemy was retarded. It was easy to counter and neutralize though, and absolutely useless in rough terrain or in the desert
>>18652307The armor was only one type of protection, social norms and desire for ransom money were the main reasons noblemen didn't get immediately killed when they were routed
>>18652270Desperate times call for desperate measures
>>18651873Nah, the system of a hereditary or semi-hereditary martial nobility ruling over society is dead and society is worse for it.>But monarchs have no intrinsic reason to care about their nationNeither do plutocrats, difference being a martial nobility still has to actually fight for its nation and thus has incentive to avoid war when possible and ensure their nation is well supplied for conflicts.
The Roman Imperial system was the best
>>18652329>difference being a martial nobility still has to actually fight for its nation and thus has incentive to avoid war when possibleWhat the fuck are you on about, the feudal elite loves war. They get to conquer territory, make money through plunder and ransom and make a name for themselves on the battlefield. War and feuding were endemic during the interregnum period.
>>18652486Yes, and that is beautiful. What is life without struggle and strife, you bourgeois pig?
>>18653340>life is meaningless unless somebody is pointlessly wasting lives and resources just so some nepofag can have even more wealth you can look at any news channel and see how well some retard starting a war because he thought it would be a nice boost is going for anybody involved (it doesn't matter which retard since you got several of those right now)
>>18653348>the point of life is to mindlessly consume and fornicate until you dieYou wouldn’t get it, but there are some things that are worth fighting for. Things that are greater than anything you can possibly conceive.
>>18651664Ok lemme guess, you imagine yourself being an aristocrat within that system, right?
>>18651664America was the best while only white men who owned land had rights and could vote
>>18653462 No not really. I’d just like to inherit a beautiful civilisation, and not the cultural American rot we have today
>>18653464Nobody cares about America, faggot. It was always a bourgeois shithole.
>>18653340What is beautiful about innocent people being killed and their livelihoods destroyed all thanks to conflicts between highborns?
>>18651664CuteKneel down in the guillotine Viva Res Publica
>>18653728That happens in every war.Warfare itself is intrinsic to the human experience
>>18653894>uh that happens in every warall the better to make sure said lives aren't wasted for some nepo retards
>>18653898>war…le badI’d rather fight in a martial war for honor than for whatever the hell modernity is.
>>18653901yes war is le bad>muh honornot even the fags you suck off really believed that, unless you think trying to sake down some other fags shit to enrich yourself is "honorable"
>>18653904War is the father of all things>b-but they were hypocrites!!Not everyone is a principle less cynic like you, Americain
>>18653907>War is the father of all thingsFather of all suffering perhaps. Socrates, Plato and Aristotle were philosophers developing systems of thought & higher reason, long before they were compelled to serve in the military by law. They didn't 'go to war' and then come back as philosophers. They were philosophers who were sent to war.
>>18653907>bro like uh some random aristocrat doing a war of conquest is like so honorablealso please tell us what place you come from
>>18653909>suffering is badDefend this proposition>They didn't 'go to war' and then come back as philosophers. They were philosophers who were sent to war.War and struggle is the father of all transformation. There is no society, no culture, no beauty, no life without warfare. Everything you know and love has its roots in the wars man has waged in its long history. You cannot deny this.
>>18651664aristocracy is a caste not a form of government
>>18653955>Defend this propositionNta but it hurts. If you think suffering is not bad you really have not suffered, mainly because of a lack of empathy.
>>18653894You did not explain why it is beautiful.
