A way to express outrage at
modernity and pop culture.
An expression of appreciation for the scholastic philosophy of the middle ages and early medieval philosopher Boethius in particular for their insight into the joys of monarchy and ruminations on the goddess

โWhat I want is a good, strong
monarchy with a tasteful and decent king who has some knowledge of
theology and geometry and to cultivate a Rich Inner Life.โ
