the seven tenants of the New Monarchy.
1. To secure our walls against the enemy without.
2. To secure the rights and liberties of every upstanding citizen.
3. To sponsor the sciences of the City, and to salvage the ruins beyond, so that our Golden Age might be reborn.
4. To support the Guardian Orders by leading the City in technological innovation.
5. To support the natural harmony of the City, and to actively dissuade any group or individual that might disrupt that harmony.
6. To hold all individuals, compacts, and alliances to the highest standards of productivity and right behavior.
7. To, by vote of the Consensus, abolish the Consensus, and transfer ultimate power, in order that the rights and liberties of all citizens be secured, to a single sovereign of unimpeachable character.
I choose them because they're the only ones whose main focus is rebuilding civilization.

Jesse, James, MEOWTH, THAT'S RIGHT!
-
FWC because the whole plot of Destiny is "the darkness is coming back" which is the FWC's main belief
-
A civilisation that has not proven it's desire to exist through conflict does not deserve to. The Future War Cult, fighting to preserve the War for Tomorrow.
-
and what does Tenant 1 mean, if not to fight the darkness in defense of the City? and what after that? you of the FWC would have us live as Spartans, training our children to operate firearms before they could walk and living in fortified bunkers. The Monarchy fights for actual goals, not the vague concepts of you and Dead Orbit.
-
One does not carve out a future from a defensive position. Think on that while the Future War Cult fights your battles for you.
-
The best defense is a strong offense, on that point I agree. And, if it's worth anything, I'd trust the FWC over DO any day.
-
What's gonna get done with a democratic government? It'll take too long. We also state that if the person for the job cannot be found they must be created. We're not gonna just let some whack job take control of the City. A monarchy is what the City needs. Things get done quicker. The City doesn't have that kind of time available.

Actions speak louder than words.
-
One person with ultimate power... sounds like tyranny...
-
Yeah the seventh tenant is terrible, that's why I don't trust new monarchy

Edited by ShingetsuMoon: 9/17/2015 9:09:39 PMThat 7th tenant is the only reason I have never and will never go with New Monarcy. It just reeks of so much trouble.

True, they do some shady shit.
