I know we're picking on the novelty of drawing comparisons between Woke and Christianity today. But, if that’s true, I’m skeptical of these solutions. Can you redirect religious evolution in this way? It seems it has a world-historical logic that defies simple incentive changes.

There are choice-points I think. It was not guaranteed that the USSR would turn communist, and the Bolsheviks made that happen with a comparatively small amount of force.

Yes, "critical junctures." They make me lose sleep because we can't know them ex ante, only seen in hindsight. Some on here have been suggested ours already passed

Jim's answer that I find pretty persuasive is when King George IV failed to divorce Caroline for blatantly flagrant adultery and whoring fatally weakening the crown in everyone's eyes and remaking the status hierarchy.

Why would that matter? Anyway, I don't know much about the 1800s so I could be wrong, but it doesn't sound that important to me.

It matters because it determines who and what is high status. A healthy social structure needs a King at the top who is the fount of all honors. Without one you get power that cloaks itself in anonymity and bad signalling from trying to please power in the form of an egregore

I think the King thing is not very smart. Kings are fallible humans and after several generations of peace and inbreeding they become absolute retards. This "man" is very nearly the King of Great Britain (probably won't be, but almost)pic.twitter.com/Q7I9FAGC3M

I would make a better king. You would. He's an idiot. He doesn't understand power. He's being obviously manipulated by a woman. JFC man this guy is a walking, talking reductio ad absurdum of monarchism.

Every country needs a King. Unfortunately it takes a long time to get to one if you don't already have one. Around 500 years between the end of Roman rule in Britainnia and the first man to call himself King of England. Much easier to destroy then create.
