We Chose Ideology Over Stability. Look What Happened.


For most of history, politics worked without ideologies. No left or right. No slogans. No party branding. So what held society together before “-isms” took over?
Kings ruled through duty, loyalty, and faith. Not as private virtues, but as public obligations. Monarchies, for all their flaws, offered something ideology never could: stability. This episode asks a simple question: Did politics actually work better before ideology?
We look at how monarchies corrected themselves through law and custom, long before revolutions or party manifestos existed. From England’s Charter of Liberties to Hungary’s Golden Bull, history shows how responsibility once outweighed rhetoric. If you’ve ever wondered why modern politics feels like theatre, or why every ideology eventually disappoints, this video might give you the missing context.
