UK situation makes me wonder: what’s worse, the bad emperor problem of monarchies or the bad legislature problem of democracies 🤔 I suspect about equally bad but I prefer the latter because if the people get a bad legislature they probably truly deserve it
Funny that they have an actual king who I suspect is as hapless as the PM. And this lot ruled half the world for 200y. That’s the power of steam.

Counterpoint: A bad legislature is worse, because violent peasant revolts are part and parcel of having a monarchy. Get a bad legislature, and no matter what it does the only legitimate response is "come on guys, we need to VOTE!"
