TheCyborgNinja 12/19/17 9:59:29 PM #19:	I don't like the GOP but would live under certain types of authoritarian rule. This sort of thing is much more nuanced than it seems... and because somebody always probes me when I say polarizing things like that: My ideal government is the former Prussian constitutional monarchy. I want checks and balances, but also a powerful person at the helm, doing something for the sake of their nation and its subjects rather than what amounts to an unscrupulous corporate puppet balancing re-election and pleasing donors. The head of state is still bound to uphold the constitution and entertain the advice of representatives in parliament and make changes accordingly. ~~I am a bit biased though, as my dad's family were somewhat affluent Prussian bourgeoisie before the Russians took everything...~~ --- "message parlor" ? do you mean the post office ? - SlayerX888 <cite>TheCyborgNinja posted [p:892537170] in If Republi...
