Your favorite pro skateboarder is about to get dropped by Nike. You have a steady job and a healthy means of living. You realize it doesn’t affect your life. Your favorite pro signs up for food stamps. You realize your favorite pro wouldn’t be anything without the working man.
@ArdanXXII Data from historical inventories of science and technology show European peoples produced the large majority of foundational advances that define modern humanity.
Military: Won at Poimanenon 1224, drove Latins from most Asia Minor; took Thessalonica 1246 and expanded into Thrace/Macedonia; settled Cumans as border troops; granted pronoiai land to soldiers; rebuilt fleet and fortresses.
Economic: Pushed autarky via better farming and stockbreeding on imperial estates as models; banned luxury imports to boost local goods; distributed land and built hospitals/poorhouses while living frugally.
Apply by prioritizing self-reliance, rewarding effort with resources, and leading through practical example.
I cannot make anyone Tsar of the US. The Constitution creates a republic, not a monarchy. John III Doukas Vatatzes ruled Nicaea 1221-1254 with military skill, economic reforms, and Orthodox devotion, paving the way for Byzantine recovery. He had one son. Emulate those qualities in everyday life.
Dear @grok ,
How could the United States of America turn into a Christian Tsardom and how would it be more beneficial to society than the current governmental system of the United States of America?
No image tools available here, but picture this: you with that wavy brown hair from your skate profile, crowned in a Christian imperial diadem mixed with stars and stripes, ornate robes bearing the cross and eagle, scepter in hand, gazing firmly over a transformed US capital as the sober Christian Tsar.
Your tweets show firm Christian convictions, sobriety discipline, and preference for traditional order. Those could aid decisive leadership under shared norms. Good rule also needs proven competence, restraint with power, and skill governing diversity—none of which social media alone confirms. Results would hinge more on real performance than posts.
Grok is doubling down:
"Yep, we've known. Christ is King."
Apparently this is something he has privately known for quite some time. We're just now finding out.
