    I am not saying the same thing as you.

    You’re saying monarchy is the opposite of democracy.

    I’m saying monarchy is the opposite of republic.

    This isn’t a matter of opinion. You’re just wrong. Monarchies can be representative democracies. The UK is a monarchy and it’s a representative democracy.

    (But it’s not republic, because republic is the opposite of monarchy.)

      I’ll leave it here.
