Personally I think that republic over monarchy at all costs is a little bit overblown. Some of the countries where life is objectively better are monarchies, e.g. the Scandinavian countries. I'm not saying there's necessarily a correlation. But I'm not saying they'd necessarily be better if they were republics either. That being said, in the case of the Daily Wire, they're obviously in favour of a dictatorship, despite what they'll say to deny it. If liberalism has failed, which is what this is about, then because they're conservatives, they can't revert back to a democratic system, so they have to go for absolute monarchy, or maybe feudalism.

Ranked choice voting can come, but that is a side task to the real need for system change beyond capitalism. How that is done is essentially to create a system that does the opposite of the horrors of top-down, scarcity-based, profit-driven, ecologically destructive capitalism. The opposite? It's local direct democracy, worker cooperatives, Mutual Aid Networks, Library of Things Economy expansion (see Srsly Wrong boys for more on that) and collaborating best practice ideas to other communities doing the same liberating system change.
@@coolioso808 Pitting one positive thing against another (as in changing the subject when you see it being advocated) is a good way to ensure that neither ever happens.
@@elbruces I disagree. But let's take your premise and follow that train. So, you suggest then that the 'most important thing' is to focus our energy on pushing through ranked choice voting? That's the silver bullet? That's the fight worth fighting? Despite the rich elites who already have done all they can to take democracy away from the people, you think the path to a better world is through the fight for ranked choice voting? I don't think so. Instead, if we focus our energy on system change, from the bottom-up, community cooperation and mutual aid - we are not waiting on political laws and policies to change - we are helping people out in the here and how and then open up discussion and education to then build solidarity towards other issues that we see are barriers to further success. And the momentum from a mutual aid network worker cooperative would be much stronger than just a bunch of people advocating ranked choice voting.
It's time we the people took collective responsibility for our own failure to hold our leaders to account for so so long _"All People's have the right to self defence from Colonial rule, including armed resistance"_ UN Charter: Protocol 1 Call for Government by People's Referenda: Peaceful Encampment of our Capitals until it's installed, or run Mascot Candidates Single Issue Referendums with thresholds and a social contract means Communities can vote their own laws. A Public Authority can audit police and prosecute bad cops in our own courts. Nationalise resources and give Indigenous peoples the right of Sovereignty over them as Guardians. This can be achieved through a General Strike or Velvet Revolution, much like the Occupy movement, peacefully occupying State Buildings until a People's Mandate can be implemented. With the appropriate checks and balances, you could have a national digital forum where qualified professionals can debate the issues in a public setting without all the disinformation and bad faith antics, hatespeech etc. Any vote would need to pass the 70% threshold, with a veto or _rewrite_ vote needing 30%. The issues would be debated, the public educated, and then a vote taken. Votes that fail will have to wait a year before trying again. Any new proposal (Citizen Initiated Referendum) would have to reach a threshold of support before it made it onto the register. This would be subject to a Social Contract (New Constitution) that forbids human rights abuses and discrimination. That can be written in the same manner based on the core principles we all share. Councils and Boards could operate in the same fashion at Scale. It works in a way that obligates people to better educate themselves ( that is to use logic and evidence in their reasoning ) for a better understanding of the issues, and then take collective responsibility for the outcomes. As opposed to the divisive US v them scapegoating and bi-partisan finger pointing the current Capitalist Pyramid Scheme runs on. Enough is enough We need Government by People's Referenda, either through Mascot Candidates or Peaceful Encampment of the Capitals until one is established.

There’s basically two types of conservatives in American society now: The “‘Murica hell yeah!” type… They most likely drive a big pickup truck with “Don’t tread on me” and “Blue Lives Matter” stickers, listen to (bad) country music, love their firearms, and are very pro-military. We might disagree with them on just about every policy issue, but due to their unwavering belief in American Exceptionalism, they love this country and would hate to see it crumble. Then there’s the IDW type. They like to talk about ancient philosophers, they tend to be drawn to Catholicism (especially the traditional Latin mass) and Orthodox Christianity as opposed to evangelical Protestantism, and their silly, pseudointellectual LARPing has led them to reject not only the “American experiment”, but liberalism and Enlightenment values all together. They would love nothing more than a traditional Catholic monarchy, with the Pope as the reigning king. But not Pope Francis, as the Church would obviously revert back to its pre-Vatican II ways. They would burn him at the stake for heresy. Of course, I’m stereotyping and making some broad generalizations. But you get the picture…
Of course you are stereotyping… that’s what “liberals” full of hate and racism do-- they stereotype Par for the course You are so trendy and hip Bet your mask has a Ukraine flag on it
You're not, tho. Stereotyping. I'm 42. One of my besties in high school was an "atheist" catholic. We were angry teenage atheists together ❤️ ... anyway, after a good acid trip he reverted, lol.

I'm an intellectual, a professor of theoretical physics, an authentic doctor of philosophy with a great knowledge of science, history, theology, health, music, etc. The left sounds good in theory but I'm old enough to know what liars the candidates always are. I think the democrat rhetoric about race has made race relations worse in this country. I think democrats use trans people as props and do nothing for us. I think democrats overstepped with excessive lockdowns in 2020-2021. I am also on the right because I like economic nationalism, I want the US to have a strong domestic economy without too much trade, I want immigration only after we take care of people already here. Anyway, the real difference between left and right is whether you trust the government. If you trust them, then having big programs like healthcare sounds good, if you distrust them, then you want less taxes and less programs. It's not about being selfish, it's about being realistic. People turn conservative as they age because they realize that the government doesn't work, and that happens for intellectuals too.

The Israeli war on Palestinians is being viewed by 98% of the human race, and most of us see history repeating itself. Each of us can look at where we stand and know that where we stand, the language we speak, and the nationalities we possess are the result of the cruelty and inhumanity that has been attendant to every colonial enterprise, including Israel. My ancestors were kidnapped and enslaved. My husband's ancestors were driven out of Ukraine. We live on unceded Algonquin land. Each human being today is either a beneficiary of invasion and colonization or a victim of it. The end of "The Great American Experiment" is testimony to the fact that any institution built on injustice must eventually resort to neverending violence, suppression, and subjugation of the masses through fear and intimidation. These 'elites' see the only way for them to maintain their advantages is to return to the systems that allow nations to be built on injustice and racism.
You just said it yourself, every nation has been built this way, so every nation must return to violence ways? I disagree. But every nation has similar beginnings, just some were conquered others conquered, but all have suffered that.
@damedusa5107 I said, "These 'elites' (referring to the pompas a**holes in the video) see the only way for them to maintain their advantages is to return to the to the systems that allow nations to be built on injustice and racism." That is the reason they are pro-Israel, with all the violence and cruelty it's colonization of Palestine entails. Such people think what Israel is doing is a necessary evil. They say, 'What else are we going to do, give back all the land to the Natives? Repatriate all the wealth we stole from Africa, India, and SE Asia? Fire our puppets in Saudi Arabia and the other Middle East countries?' I say, "Yes."

To be fair, everyone has abandoned the founding father’s vision and rightly fully so. Their vision was not democratic , and was just the elite running things. There’s a complete rewrite of history goes on that a try’s to paint them in a better light, when even their involvement was for there-own trade and smuggling money. There’s a reason so many amendments have happened to make the USA democratic. But the current system is not what they would want. We shouldn’t forget what their true motivations were and believe the small sound bites they wrote in pamphlets to start the revolution. It was for money primarily. Even tho it was a good thing it happened, the truth around it is much more grey, than people would like to believe. But when talking about democracy, they shouldn’t really be mentioned as. It’s not something we should try to emulate.
Just to set the record straight, the British monarchy doesn't have any political powers at all, they are merely a symbol. King Charles can't tell parliament what to do...they have ceremonial duties.
Totally wrong.the king still has immense powers, you should look it up. It’s a choice not to use any, as they have been aware, it would be an end to them. But it’s also a check and balance, the king can shut down parliament and demand a new government or election happens. Which in the case of a tyrannical government would be popular, but if it was for his own means he would be overthrown. It’s a balancing act. But you should look up royal power, because it’s not what you think, a king can even declare war without parliaments say so. These things haven’t happened but the power is written in law.
@@christophergreen6595 I agree that they can voice their opinions and that opinion is respected but they rarely force the issue, they leave it to their parliamentarians. These guys in the clip are talking about a king or strong man with full power, a dictator. I would add that the British monarchy is not known for rocking the boat, they have a good thing going...lol. Being from Canada, king Charles is our official head of state represented by the Governor General.
They're talking about the reality that they'd like to impose on others, not the reality that they'd also experience. They think they'll be the privileged class in this new society.

Not really, uk is ranked a higher democracy than the USA by the index, as in the people have more political power and ways of exercising that, and they have a king. Not saying I want that at all, just saying it’s not necessarily true what you are saying. The USA isn’t very democratic on the large scale, it is on the fact of it, but not very when you look at the institutions. The rights are enshrined which is a benefit, but others countries have rights just not a constitution. Just saying it’s not as black and white as that.
@damedusa5107 But do you actually have a functioning monarchy still ? And don't defend having a king? You should all be ashamed of yourself in the UK, you still have one.

To be fair, they probably thought that. The modern American democracy was not what they wanted. They wanted only an elite voting. That’s why so many amendments to the system has happened.
This is the guy who once said that an opinion “is a statement of fact from a personal perspective.” The one named Knowles that is. I’ve never taken anything I’ve heard him say, seriously after that.
The Founders weren't so much anti-monarchy as they demanded representation in parliament and recognition of the legal rights set forth in Magna Carta rather than the arbitrary, tyrannical rule Parliament tried to impose on the colonies from the late 1760s to the mid 1770s. Had each state been given, say, 2 seats in Parliament there may well not have been a Revolution. Time to [re]read Thomas Paine's Common Sense?
@heyrakorzlar ever read The Emperor's New Clothes and wonder why anyone would follow such a gullible idiot? It's because the real king can find it useful to put a jester on the throne. It distracts people from the real king's intentions and can attract assassins towards the fool.
Knowles claims it’s bad that Congress has given the executive branch too much power… and yet, he’s arguing in favor of a monarchy, in which the “executive branch” has ALL the power. It’s contradictory nonsense.

Wowzers. I know people say "mask off" a lot, hell I'm guilty of throwing the term around a little too liberally too, but this... if ever someone ever needed to explain the meaning of "went full mask off" to a layman, this is it. This is THE example. The purest expression.

oh god I don't remember that one
George Carlin: You Are All Diseased - Cigars
I just went and saw it. Very funny
We don’t need monarchy.
We need ranked choice voting.
Ranked choice voting can come, but that is a side task to the real need for system change beyond capitalism.
How that is done is essentially to create a system that does the opposite of the horrors of top-down, scarcity-based, profit-driven, ecologically destructive capitalism.
The opposite? It's local direct democracy, worker cooperatives, Mutual Aid Networks, Library of Things Economy expansion (see Srsly Wrong boys for more on that) and collaborating best practice ideas to other communities doing the same liberating system change.
Yes, but what if your fundamental axioms hold that human suffering is good and must be maximized?
@@coolioso808
Pitting one positive thing against another (as in changing the subject when you see it being advocated) is a good way to ensure that neither ever happens.
@@elbruces I disagree. But let's take your premise and follow that train. So, you suggest then that the 'most important thing' is to focus our energy on pushing through ranked choice voting? That's the silver bullet? That's the fight worth fighting? Despite the rich elites who already have done all they can to take democracy away from the people, you think the path to a better world is through the fight for ranked choice voting? I don't think so.
Instead, if we focus our energy on system change, from the bottom-up, community cooperation and mutual aid - we are not waiting on political laws and policies to change - we are helping people out in the here and how and then open up discussion and education to then build solidarity towards other issues that we see are barriers to further success. And the momentum from a mutual aid network worker cooperative would be much stronger than just a bunch of people advocating ranked choice voting.
It's time we the people took collective responsibility for our own failure to hold our leaders to account for so so long
_"All People's have the right to self defence from Colonial rule, including armed resistance"_
UN Charter: Protocol 1
Call for Government by People's Referenda:
Peaceful Encampment of our Capitals until it's installed, or run Mascot Candidates
Single Issue Referendums with thresholds and a social contract means Communities can vote their own laws.
A Public Authority can audit police and prosecute bad cops in our own courts.
Nationalise resources and give Indigenous peoples the right of Sovereignty over them as Guardians.
This can be achieved through a General Strike or Velvet Revolution, much like the Occupy movement, peacefully occupying State Buildings until a People's Mandate can be implemented.
With the appropriate checks and balances, you could have a national digital forum where qualified professionals can debate the issues in a public setting without all the disinformation and bad faith antics, hatespeech etc.
Any vote would need to pass the 70% threshold, with a veto or _rewrite_ vote needing 30%.
The issues would be debated, the public educated, and then a vote taken. Votes that fail will have to wait a year before trying again. Any new proposal (Citizen Initiated Referendum) would have to reach a threshold of support before it made it onto the register.
This would be subject to a Social Contract (New Constitution) that forbids human rights abuses and discrimination.
That can be written in the same manner based on the core principles we all share. Councils and Boards could operate in the same fashion at Scale.
It works in a way that obligates people to better educate themselves ( that is to use logic and evidence in their reasoning ) for a better understanding of the issues, and then take collective responsibility for the outcomes. As opposed to the divisive US v them scapegoating and bi-partisan finger pointing the current Capitalist Pyramid Scheme runs on.
Enough is enough
We need Government by People's Referenda, either through Mascot Candidates or Peaceful Encampment of the Capitals until one is established.

There’s basically two types of conservatives in American society now:
The “‘Murica hell yeah!” type… They most likely drive a big pickup truck with “Don’t tread on me” and “Blue Lives Matter” stickers, listen to (bad) country music, love their firearms, and are very pro-military. We might disagree with them on just about every policy issue, but due to their unwavering belief in American Exceptionalism, they love this country and would hate to see it crumble.
Then there’s the IDW type. They like to talk about ancient philosophers, they tend to be drawn to Catholicism (especially the traditional Latin mass) and Orthodox Christianity as opposed to evangelical Protestantism, and their silly, pseudointellectual LARPing has led them to reject not only the “American experiment”, but liberalism and Enlightenment values all together. They would love nothing more than a traditional Catholic monarchy, with the Pope as the reigning king. But not Pope Francis, as the Church would obviously revert back to its pre-Vatican II ways. They would burn him at the stake for heresy.
Of course, I’m stereotyping and making some broad generalizations. But you get the picture…
Of course you are stereotyping… that’s what “liberals” full of hate and racism do-- they stereotype
Par for the course
You are so trendy and hip
Bet your mask has a Ukraine flag on it
You're not, tho. Stereotyping.
I'm 42. One of my besties in high school was an "atheist" catholic. We were angry teenage atheists together ❤️
... anyway, after a good acid trip he reverted, lol. He's now a priest, part of the St Ignatius Diocese in Cleveland, and in his circle they all HATE Vatican II.
The first group are still far dumber overall than the second group, although the second group are more detestable in their value system.
Only the Daily Liar crew can make smoking cigars and drinking scotch NOT manly

The word intellectual is not something I would ever associate with any part of the right.
I LoL'd at "conservative intelligencia"! The most moronic oxymoron I've ever heard!
Not without either pseudo- or anti- in front of it.
I'm an intellectual, a professor of theoretical physics, an authentic doctor of philosophy with a great knowledge of science, history, theology, health, music, etc. The left sounds good in theory but I'm old enough to know what liars the candidates always are. I think the democrat rhetoric about race has made race relations worse in this country. I think democrats use trans people as props and do nothing for us. I think democrats overstepped with excessive lockdowns in 2020-2021. I am also on the right because I like economic nationalism, I want the US to have a strong domestic economy without too much trade, I want immigration only after we take care of people already here.
Anyway, the real difference between left and right is whether you trust the government. If you trust them, then having big programs like healthcare sounds good, if you distrust them, then you want less taxes and less programs. It's not about being selfish, it's about being realistic. People turn conservative as they age because they realize that the government doesn't work, and that happens for intellectuals too.

The Israeli war on Palestinians is being viewed by 98% of the human race, and most of us see history repeating itself. Each of us can look at where we stand and know that where we stand, the language we speak, and the nationalities we possess are the result of the cruelty and inhumanity that has been attendant to every colonial enterprise, including Israel.
My ancestors were kidnapped and enslaved. My husband's ancestors were driven out of Ukraine. We live on unceded Algonquin land. Each human being today is either a beneficiary of invasion and colonization or a victim of it. The end of "The Great American Experiment" is testimony to the fact that any institution built on injustice must eventually resort to neverending violence, suppression, and subjugation of the masses through fear and intimidation.
These 'elites' see the only way for them to maintain their advantages is to return to the systems that allow nations to be built on injustice and racism.
You just said it yourself, every nation has been built this way, so every nation must return to violence ways? I disagree.
But every nation has similar beginnings, just some were conquered others conquered, but all have suffered that.
@damedusa5107
I said, "These 'elites' (referring to the pompas a**holes in the video) see the only way for them to maintain their advantages is to return to the to the systems that allow nations to be built on injustice and racism." That is the reason they are pro-Israel, with all the violence and cruelty it's colonization of Palestine entails. Such people think what Israel is doing is a necessary evil. They say, 'What else are we going to do, give back all the land to the Natives? Repatriate all the wealth we stole from Africa, India, and SE Asia? Fire our puppets in Saudi Arabia and the other Middle East countries?' I say, "Yes."

The same people who would deify the Founding Fathers are so quick to abandon anything they stood for. Honestly fascinating!
To be fair, everyone has abandoned the founding father’s vision and rightly fully so. Their vision was not democratic , and was just the elite running things. There’s a complete rewrite of history goes on that a try’s to paint them in a better light, when even their involvement was for there-own trade and smuggling money. There’s a reason so many amendments have happened to make the USA democratic. But the current system is not what they would want. We shouldn’t forget what their true motivations were and believe the small sound bites they wrote in pamphlets to start the revolution. It was for money primarily. Even tho it was a good thing it happened, the truth around it is much more grey, than people would like to believe. But when talking about democracy, they shouldn’t really be mentioned as. It’s not something we should try to emulate.
Just to set the record straight, the British monarchy doesn't have any political powers at all, they are merely a symbol. King Charles can't tell parliament what to do...they have ceremonial duties.
Except when they don't :)
The "royal prerogative" exists, regardless of its rare exercise by the monarch Itself.
Totally wrong.the king still has immense powers, you should look it up. It’s a choice not to use any, as they have been aware, it would be an end to them. But it’s also a check and balance, the king can shut down parliament and demand a new government or election happens. Which in the case of a tyrannical government would be popular, but if it was for his own means he would be overthrown. It’s a balancing act. But you should look up royal power, because it’s not what you think, a king can even declare war without parliaments say so. These things haven’t happened but the power is written in law.
@@christophergreen6595 I agree that they can voice their opinions and that opinion is respected but they rarely force the issue, they leave it to their parliamentarians. These guys in the clip are talking about a king or strong man with full power, a dictator. I would add that the British monarchy is not known for rocking the boat, they have a good thing going...lol.

"The problem with democracy in America is that there's just too darn much of it." -- Our founding fathers, probably.

Just look at those silk hands handling those cigars and glasses... Lol
The Founders weren't so much anti-monarchy as they demanded representation in parliament and recognition of the legal rights set forth in Magna Carta rather than the arbitrary, tyrannical rule Parliament tried to impose on the colonies from the late 1760s to the mid 1770s. Had each state been given, say, 2 seats in Parliament there may well not have been a Revolution.

@heyrakorzlar ever read The Emperor's New Clothes and wonder why anyone would follow such a gullible idiot? It's because the real king can find it useful to put a jester on the throne. It distracts people from the real king's intentions and can attract assassins towards the fool.
Knowles claims it’s bad that Congress has given the executive branch too much power… and yet, he’s arguing in favor of a monarchy, in which the “executive branch” has ALL the power. It’s contradictory nonsense.
