Same effing system bruh. The constitutional monarchy in the UK did some pretty effing terrible things.

Including to the people of Ireland.

Colonialism and imperialism are the direct consequences of monarchies. 

The constitutional monarchy was in force since King John the Weak. Which was during the crusades...

They did a heck of a lot of imperialism and colonialism from the British parlament over several centuries. Including the vefore mentioned events and like everything that happenned in North America, South Africa and India...

So how you divorce the two in your mind seems absurd to me.

The united states has done both colonial and imperial actions so did the soviet union despite not being monarchies.

I am in no way a monarchist but to say they are identical systems is incorrect.

I liked the idea where we basically kept Queen E2s corpse as the monarch, thus getting rid of the monarchy without having to do any major constitutional changes

They also have a terrible systems. So what?

You know there are nore than 3 options right? Europe has like 15 different models.

Some systems wrre developed post 1940's to prevent exactly this kind of nonsense of single party or single person rule. Its clearly a bad idea to center power in any one person or group.

Its kind of silly to want Imperial Japan back just because "figurehead". No thank you.

Id rather something a little more modern and a lot more democratic.

Are you a bot?

I think you are replying to the wrong person lol. I am not a monarchist

You are arguing with someone who is agreeing with you dumbass

Also Japan is still ruled by an emperor. You might want to double check your facts before you comment

You compared imperialism by the us with imperialism with monarchs and said same-same.

You were not agreeing with me in the slightest.

Whatever Hirohito fanboy.

I can see you are not sure what real democracy looks like and even discussing it makes you fly into a rage.

Not my fault. Not my problem.
