Stuart rule didn't justify itself through Mole-Rat social totalitarianism.

Frederick II wasn't -- but then he was basically an authoritarian liberal (and thus a 'communist' for RF).

I think there's a confusion here between the structure of the society/state 'absolutist' vs some use of it.

The only confusion I'm seeing is the invocation of mole-rat metaphysics to legitimate non-populist government

Will have to think further but I think RF is hampered more by his style than theory.

His 'theory' is a Fnargl fable.
