The good thing about this community, is it’s still based on consent, as no one is fattened against their will. In a way it’s admirable seeing these women do this to themselves, as it shows a real dedication to work against the grain of society and become the sizes they do.
Imagine going cucked Plutocratic Republic when you can go Chad Ottoman government and choose your Chaddest son from your multiple wives to take the throne.
Monarchies are better in Europa universalis 4, as they can abdicate bad rulers, disenherit bad heirs, and get a higher max absolutism, which allows you to conquer faster.
Ofc Pepe_Von_Habsburg would have the wrong opinion. Stab hits every couple of years blow dick. Losing a shitload of prestige if you start with or get a shit monarch fucking sucks and why would you ever want to be stuck with shit stats when you can very easily have a nearly semi permanent 6/6/6 leader
Just be catholic for free stability, also it costs more to increase stability as a republic anyways. The problem with republics though is that all rulers start below average, with a total of 6 points, when the average is 9 with no modifiers. For most rulers you won’t re-elect them, which means that you statistically spend a longer time with a below average ruler.
Steve Huffman: Compensation, well... A few steps down the road what I would like to do is when I say empower communities, I think there’s an extreme version of that, which is where we bring economics into this. Allowing communities to have business models. And hopefully you can use your imagination there, but I think there’s a lot they can do and that would open the door to communities having money and potentially moderators having a share of that. So I think we’re pretty far off, but that’s one of my, kind of, fantasies, that we can elevate communities to such a degree that people can actually run a business or earn a living on Reddit.
Catholic and orthodox are the strongest Christian religions in the game. Protestant is good if you are a smaller nation, Anglican is good to get high mercantilism, reformed is pretty shit.
Once I inquired here as to why the Kaiserreich subreddit attracts the most autistic people on the entire internet. A humble participant from their hive emerged and kindly admonished me for using “autistic” in a derogatory manner. After all, he might indeed be autistic but that didn’t make him lesser, nor were his vidya comrades all of one mind.
And I felt terrible. It’s a shame that the carousel of internet lexicon has turned this horrible burden into the latest fleeting fad in crass slurs. And horrible that I had let myself participate in the humiliation of the real human beings that live with it as an illness.
However in my mind I couldn’t help but take note... that the only Kaiserbae fan to see my post just so happened to be... well. Maybe I shouldn’t overthink it.

It's the games man. Grand strategies are very complex, super hard to get into, they don't provide you with some instant gratification like say FPS games do, there is little enjoyment to be found in visuals or gameplay loops - it's all about statistics, tables, graphs etc.
So you sink hours and hours into these games, learn all the mechanics and what's the correct way to play, and your reward is that you statistically defeat some other country because your numbers in few of the 5000 different charts are better? Of course you need to be autistic to enjoy this.
Hey man, it's alright to be autistic. You could always channel your autism into worse things - I usually try to compare shit to furries when I wanna feel better at myself, in your case, you could waste your time drawing furry porn on Twitter, and that would definitely be worse.
I remember the butthurt. But I also know how to differentiate between a boomer who is mad that the black panther was “the most diverse movie of all time” and a ethno nationalist who would agree and amplify its message.
In the 'my great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandmother twice-removed was an Irish princess' sense, probably
The only other place I've seen European catholic/orthodox extremists in large numbers is the niche community who are still into 1990s-style RPGs. I guess maybe it's the combination of autism and being in a post-Soviet bloc country and unable to afford a 3D graphics card in their formative years.
Depends what iteration of Civ you're playing. Monarchy is only slightly better (mechanically) than dictatorship in the early game, and usually gets rekt by communism, and theocracy in the late game. Those civ 2 fanatic stacks were no joke.
You don't see extreme right-wing European catholics out in the wild so often, but they're hilarious when you catch one. Tankies act all serious about rolling back the clock 100 years, they do about rolling it back 200 years.
The stupidest part of the subreddit is that they don't even believe in constitutional monarchies, they want absolute monarchies. Even though most monarchs don't even want that. It's this kind of autism that reminds me of Bismark, who was such a firm believer in absolute monarchy that he blatantly ignored the orders of his king who he served as chancellor (despite believing that the office of chancellor shouldn't even exist) as those orders would undermine the power of the monarchy.
I'm convinced that most of them have a domination fetish but are too pussey to admit it to themselves so it expresses itself in their political opinion instead
