    Well, for one example, the British monarchy is about 1500 years old and they’ve done nothing that didn’t serve the cis white community to the detriment of anyone who isn’t a religious white straight person across the entire face of the planet.

    I would argue that you should consider who writes the history books and who they serve.

    As for real people, I see them everyday. As for breathing people, there are far fewer queer and brown people than there should be, because they were murdered, stolen from, subjugated, repressed, and neglected as a course of standard operating procedure of the “status quo”.

      Do you think only straight white people benefitted from the British Empire? Or are you saying this of the Monarchy per se?
