I'm not an American...

I'm also simply saying that ANY kingdom is bad. If you come up with whatever reason like "but muh king is the best!" It's still bad. It's still a kingdom meaning that rights are restricted.

I want another leader? Well, too bad, it's not a democracy.

I want to publicly disagree with the leader? Maybe this king allows it. Will their offspring allow it too? No guarantees

I want to publicly criticize the dear king, or maybe insult him?

Do I really need to explain this? The Netherlands still has a king but he has zero power and is purely symbolic. That would be fine if they weren't so fucking expensive.

If you have a king with absolute power them you're screwed one way or the other, today or tomorrow, but it will go badly
