    I love how they blame the rise of the Nazis on republicanism and then immediately pivot to Nazi talking points about immigrants

    Monarchist who aren't monarch themselves deserve to be called cucks.

      I don't think i can take somebody unironically using "Orthodox Texan Monarchy" as a flair serious enough to hate them. Then again, these people are calling a butcher like Wilhelm II, somebody who fed an entire generation into the meat grinder of Flanders over a personal feud with the other cousinfuckers, a "perfectly fine monarch", and they would probably stan the Belgian atrocities in the Kongo without batting an eye.

        they're just conservatives who know and understand history, not that different from any other bootlicker. these are just a traditional form of bootlicker.

          They clearly don't understand history nor know it, unless you call "knowing history" to just regurgitating dates and names and banners.

            I think he means that defending monarchy is the origin of conservatism as a political ideology. The monarchists as fucking stupid as their ideology is it’s probably more coherent than a modern mainstream conservative.

              This exactly. They're ideological consistent bootlickers of the highest order. They are bootlickers who know what they are and admit it. Truly the saddest and most disgusting scum.

              I guess people saw "know history" and just assumed that was a compliment?... They are just conservatives that are honest with themselves and submit totally to an authoritarian who has no claim other than tradition and birthright. They're the oldest and most traditional conservatives and are what most conservatives really are deep down if they were honest with themselves.

              It's why simply convincing many conservatives off the truth about the rich won't be enough to change their behavior. We have to find some way to steer these people into a productive political participation instead of the feudalism-with-smartphones that they want now.

            No they understand their ideology, conservativism naturally leads to traditionalism and authoritarian leadership. It's what their ideology is deep down at it's core. They're the most self-honest bootlickers.

      Presumably whoever is the heir of Sam Houston. Which, if a few people I couldn't find children for didn't actually have any, would be someone named "John Buckner Hightower", who is maybe a real estate broker if that's the same person.

      Also, for extra :agony-yehaw:: his mother, who would be the heir if she were alive, went by Q.
