The modern intellectuals who have been willing to promote the cause of traditional monarchy, as far as I can tell, remain a minority of a minority. I did recently come across an old WW2 propaganda picture, from Britain no less, which equated Hitler with a succession of past monarchs, with the picture implying that all had tried to "conquer the world".<br /><br />However, I do think the restoration is bound to happen eventually if for no other reason than that the leftist utopia is an impossibility. What they promote is impractical, unworkable and unnatural, it just may take considerable 'storm and stress' before people are forced to face facts.MadMonarchisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08083008336883267870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8783969302315257415.post-44554380140306586812015-07-01T17:49:18.275-05:002015-07-01T17:49:18.275-05:00Hello MM,

Do you see any cracking in the left wing spell? Can we look at these conservative figures now on their own terms?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8783969302315257415.post-40528617086844441812015-07-01T17:45:31.707-05:002015-07-01T17:45:31.707-05:00Hello MM,

I have a quick question for you. As you know, since the Frankfurt School and the emergence of the New Left, all forms of reactionary thought have been filtered through the "Nazi lens" by which all traditional thought is smeared, e.g., all monarchs are proto-Hitlers. Do you think that the leftist spell is beginning to fade, and we are now able to see royalism on its own terms?

The stated goals was for German control of the Low Countries, the northeast coast of France and economic mastery over Europe. Poland, Finland, the Baltics, Ukraine were to all be German-affiliated states. Central and southern Africa would be dominated by Germany, north and east Africa, the Middle East, southern Russia and central Asia would be dominated by Ottoman Turkey and the Balkans would be dominated by Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria.<br /><br />The British Empire would effectively have been destroyed, most of Africa being gone and India likely to break away and there may have been a post-war conflict between Germany and Japan as Germany would insist on the return of captured German colonies which Japan probably wouldn't do unless forced. Although most ignore it, a Central Powers victory could have changed things most dramatically in favor of the Ottoman Empire. The Turks had more territorial demands than anyone and if they had achieved what they desired, all of the oil fields of Libya, Iran, the then-British protectorates in the Persian Gulf etc would have all been under Turkish control and, if maintained, would have led to a huge and fabulously wealthy Islamic empire from north Africa to India.MadMonarchisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08083008336883267870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8783969302315257415.post-39594651821930835662015-06-29T08:25:36.621-05:002015-06-29T08:25:36.621-05:00If Germany was winning hypotheticaly WWI there was...If Germany was winning hypotheticaly WWI there was no holocaust, probably no Hitler, and a more monarchist world order. I believe most socialist revolts were crushed and maybe Germany would aid the White Russians or even, intervate to destroy Red Russia. We would have spoken German and the greatest brains were not going USA, and perhaps it was falling apart. Austria-Hungary maybe was surviving and a great Ottoman Empire to rule and stabilize ME. The British Empire was not so great although, and maybe France would go Communist. What do you think abiu such alternative history, MM?AutocraticEnlightenmenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07158084306809993525noreply@blogger.com
