Here is a brutal truth. American voters knew exactly what they were voting for when they elected Trump. The majority of them wanted a King. (www.nytimes.com)

Taught or not, propaganda or not. Any idea can become reality given enough momentum.

My take is that monarchies, fascism, these aren't natural ways for people to live. Even if freedoms aren't guaranteed, people will always strive for them. So even if you're right, and I'm inclined to agree with much of what you said, I figure heck, might as well fight to make the dream a reality, especially if it was never real to begin with.
