You should watch some jay dyer. He has a lot of various topics, but I too was pretty black pilled until I listened to him. Still fairly black pilled, America is fucked, democracy never works, I think a collapse is the only thing to get us out, ideally we install a monarchy but I don't think the country is "there" yet, we'll probably do another republic and/or split into 100 states. But the unity and stability a monarchy provides is much better than democracy.  Ultimately, democracy is trying to build a godless state. This devolves into those that operate in the shadows controlling everything. A monarchy works closely with the church and everything the govt does is transparent and aligns with the proper morality of the church.  Don't expect to beat the system within the system. Democracy is a failure, it sounds be obvious it's bad for all expect those at the very top. That's why I believe the elites want democracy, they don't fear a population believing in "liberty and rights". That's better! It causes chaos! Tradition and God bring stability.  Look at the history of every democracy. It goes like this: Suddenly, a population "wakes up" to the concept that their king is a tyrant oppressor and they are oppressed. They believe they have "rights" given by ??? (It used to be God/nature but now those are unacceptable as everything is "random" and can be "anything") and these rights have been violated.  The violation of these rights justifies and warrants hurting those that violated these rights, as you now have a right to hurt them for hurting your rights.  You hurt them and then sit back quietly in victory, not really certain how a govt should actually be put together, just certain that the govt you create can't "violate human rights".  You elect people that only say they agree with you and won't "violate rights" but they only do enough to keep you from getting pissed off enough to do something about it, I.e. They only operate under the threat of violence a opposed to a genuine love of their own people.  These elected politicians slowly change laws, generation after generation, hurting the population with a death by a thousand papercuts: tiny laws and regulations that pile up. Kings would clear the tyrannical laws of the previous generation, in democracy, they pile up.  Eventually, the population can't handle it and "refresh the tree of liberty with the blood of patriots and tyrants" and "liberty" is restored, often times just going back to the beginning of the "freedom game" searching for more rights to be violated again, waiting for another evolution.
