Yeah that’s why I didn’t want to make that particular analogy because it appears to have whizzed over your head even when I included the end bit to try solidify the actual point at hand. The point is the roles they are elected to (which they are in stark contrast to a monarchy of any kind) are high ranking but not central to political power or work. Largely ceremonial and advisory.

That user is intentionally doing it, the chain of questions was to eventually hyperfocus on any perceived flaw and ignore any or all points made before.
I’m not sure the president of Ireland is a good analogy since they don’t sit for life.
Theoretically the Kim’s don’t either hence the elections, they’re just that popular and whether you like it or not that’s how democracy works the person the most people like wins.
All the sources I can find say that the General Secretary of WPK is a de facto power position, not a ceremonial one
Given the republicans are in power in America right now would you say Joe Gruters is central to state power? (Obviously not). Also I never said they don’t hold power just that they weren’t central and spent the majority of their time on LARGELY ceremonial and advisory tasks.

Then return to this point.
Yeah, like a chain of questions with answers you ignore or twist into something for you to attack. Whatever.
