Why is this community full of American nationalists
Lowkey, reading about the history between the US and Morocco makes me angry at islamophobes. They’re out here shit talking one of our first allies, the first country to recognize the US as a sovereign nation

I can’t believe that people within the community US politics might have some sort of emotional ties and patriotism towards the United States

That's a big stretch of the facts. The vast majority of countries' land claims were laid through conquest in a very similar manner to what we would now call settler colonialism.

Colonialism can't be demonized under a globalist system without the recognition of a nation based hierarchy

Nope, lifelong terms and higher levels of power give you someone to keep accountable. In democracy a leader can (and very commonly does) blame the guy before them for any faults in their leadership.

As a result of this dynamic there is practically no incentive for a leader under democracy to care about the future of a nation, or even its current status, as long as these two factors do not interfere with their approval rating.

Yeah man Trump is acting like a monarch and that sucks. The answer is not to go all the way. Like please dude visit Bavaria and see all the bullshit King Ludwig II was doing. Or read about deadly succession war #3846. Or incompetent boy king #294. The literal point of a monarchy is that they are not chosen on merit and have little to no accountability to the people they govern.

Neither of those ideas (minimal accountability + meritless election) are inherent to a monarchy, and they actually beautifully illustrate the current situation in the US. Thanks for hammering my point into the ground even further.

Yeah you’re a monarchist in the year 2026 idk why I thought logic or history would have any sway here

Well, yeah. If you're unwilling to engage with your own logic further than a single comment, nothing will have a meaningful effect. We are currently experiencing minimal accountability and what I would argue to be elections that result in a meritless leader taking office from a democratic government, why should I think that these issues are inherent to monarchy?
