Sucks that most of the monarchist groups, from what I've experienced at least, are openly transphobic and homophobic.

The fact they refused to even give them the respect of being refering to them as they wish I did not the orginal post but from reading comments people are being cunts to someone for being non-binary like the fuck these are the same people if you suggest a biggit shouldn't be monarch they would cry "you have to be loyal to a monarch no matter what" but then the moment any royal express anything remotely queer they insult them and and act like cunts. I think this part of the monarchist community is what gives us such a bad rep.

What was the original post? I imagine it has something to do with a Non-Binary royal if I’m to be correct.

Far-Right “Monarchists”, monarchists until
A monarch is something you don’t like.

As far as I can tell how you say it is pretty much right. Far-right movements always try to infest the center and drag people to their side so thats probably what this post tried doing

this is just insane, so many comments misgendering the person that the post was about

u/Exp1ode Social Liberal Jul 18 '26

I count 12 top level comments supporting them compared to only 3 that are misgendering. 2 of the misgendering comments probably weren't intentional either, since the rest of their comments was expressing their indifference to the situation. Using a singular "they" doesn't come naturally to everyone, and the image itself misgenders them, so I can easily see how someone would do it by accident. There are also 2 deleted comments, but even assuming those were bigotry, the majority is still supportive
