I don't see your system of monarchy as any better than technocracy.
Well, it is, because I’m Orthodox, and an Orthodox Monarchy is perfectly suited to the society my family regards as ideal - while technocracy is literally “rule-by-daemon” which regards people like me as a “problem” needing a “solution”.
What is your “minarchy” going to do to actually get power in the hands of the peasants? Sounds like pie-in-the-sky, to me. It’ll be pretty easy to get the Christian peasants to rally behind the man who effectively defends them against the advancing zombie horde.
The founding of the USA was Minarchy, so no so pie in the sky. Jefferson himself said the founding documents weren't perfect but that they were the best in the time frame given. He believed they could be expanded upon to create a longer lasting Republic. Private ownership of firearms is one example of power spread out among peasants.
"Pie in the sky", I could say the same about what you speak of. You're basically the only person I've heard of advocating for that system. You're using terms like "radical" and "pie in the sky", they could easily be applied to you.
Interesting talk, good day to you sir.

So we all see how well that’s working out, don’t we? 87 years before Lincoln utterly killed it?
It’s been real; Orthodox Monarchy is rule by the anointed King of a nation, whose Crown has been placed on his head by the Church. It’s the Traditional Way of Christendom. It’s been the real, legitimate government of our people for most of our history. That no-one has advocated it in your circles is because it needs no advocate beyond Christ Himself.
Yes, Lincoln was a piece of shit.
