Somehow this isn't parody.

    The other half of the founding fathers who wanted to just do feudalism

    Both did, it’s just one half wanted Roman style feudalism that hides behind the pretense of designated families competing for limited titles.

      I always found the states early goverment, you have the liberal striver types but think the French went to far but then you got straight up Roman style slaver who treat their slaves worse then the romans. In my heart of hearts 💕 I believe the American revolution is what happens then a revolution is entirely made up of opportunistic elements, I dont even think they belive it was gonna last as long as it does.

        With all the “new Rome” language part of me thinks you’re right. I’ve seen people talk about it as a bourgeois revolution, so there’s definitely some theory out there that backs up the other point.
