It's not really that fuzzy.
Absolute monarchy was worse than systems that shared power with an aristocracy which in turn was worse than restricted democracy which was worse than universal suffrage.
Feudalism was worse than capitalism which in turn was worse than the results of the labor movement.
Forced conversion was worse than religious discrimination which in turn was worse than religious freedom.
- grandempire 2y ago> which in turn was worse than restricted democracy which That’s not true. In aristotle’s politics he explores the major forms of government of which demagoguery is a corruption of democracy. And he gives examples. and what do you mean by better? Do you claim that Every democracy that’s ever existed functions better than every aristocracy in fulfilling its governing role? Better for who in and what regard? > capitalism and fuedalism There are absolutely no tradeoffs between feudalism and capitalism? Capitalism is an absolute good in comparison? And you’re only highlighting the major movements it the progressive narrative and ignored all the twists and turns. Was Catholicism better than Protestantism? What about agrarian hunter/gatherer vs capitalism?
