Not at all, I'm a Christian monarchist. The problem is the definition of what a virtuous king represents gets a little dicey with Plato and his crew. Why? Because his definition of virtue (ethics) is subjective and even his contemporary philosophers would disagree on many points. There was no consensus and common doctrines among the pagans and OP tries to spin it the other way around. What makes Plato any more right than say Epicurus?
