I’m not trying to defend monarchy in general, but the specific monarchical system on that planet has much better material conditions for the proletariat than the horde. Trying to fight the horde and the monarchy at the same time would just lead to the horde winning. Toleration of the monarchy was a necessary evil. This reflects real life where collaborating with liberals is often needed to fight fascism.
After the show ended though adora should have gotten to work ending the monarchy though.
I don’t think that’s true. At the start of the series, Mermista had lost all of her political power by being a bad ruler. So Adora helped Mermista get her subjects back, and then had access to Mermista’s subjects as allies. She could have just skipped the middleman and recruited the ocean people directly. Same goes for Dryl, they could have rescued/recruited the servants and then left. They didn’t need that purple haired abuser, she was a force for evil the whole time.
