The argument is (I think) that monarchies arise naturally, so they don't need to accord to anyone's intellectual demands: intellectual demands likely to be made under the influence of coffee! It's an interesting theory, anyway. Maybe the De Maistre type monarchism as such is also a product of caffeination, but rule by king (cyning, Can-ing -- able one, though more recent linguists trace it to something about procreation) without conscious adherence to ideology develops naturally without the need of any particular alkaloids: the tools to him who can use them! More traditional stimulant use should maybe be considered, in all its variety. e.g. the mysterious sacred Vedic substance soma, which is thought by some to be ephedra. That case has been distorted by millennia and religious disputes, but we have a clearer picture with tea in China. Maybe the lower caffeine concentration and balancing elements like theanine make for a more stable high, which is why China was tranquil when its rituals were observed. In fact, some Chinese sages looked down on expressly political action. Confucius says things to the tune of "small men take risks" and "attacking false systems merely harms you," and Lao Tzu recommends wu wei: inaction.naturally ordered according to whom?
