Based holy trips.

My ultimate goal in life is to be a saint. I want to be somebody who followed Christ to whatever end.

A new de jure aristocracy.

What everybody needs to realize is that revolution is always destined to failure. 200+ years of revolution, and where have we wound up? With the same state we were at before the American, French, Russian Revolutions, the Revolutions of 1848, and so on. All these years later, where are we? With a small amount of people holding all the wealth and all the power. Marxism has failed. Jacobinism has failed. It's all bullshit. It will ALWAYS fail.

So, if we're doomed to a de facto aristocracy, then it SHOULD be de jure as well. Codify aristocracy into law. Give them rights and privileges, but also responsibilities and duties. It won't curb ALL their abuses of power, but it will curb a lot of them. It did for centuries. A landed gentry will abuse their power more than the unofficial aristocracy we have now.
