People love to conflate religious views with political views. His religion is politics, not Christ. You know a tree by its fruit.

Monarchy was also one person, one vote no one dared mess with. I am challenging the very premise of voting as legitimate means for society to handle matters today just as philosophers challenged the legitimacy of monarchy in centuries past.

If the political class had its way, it would declare itself the be-all and end-all on expertise despite all the damage they have wrought in the past couple decades alone, to say nothing of history as a whole.
