Or, if you prefer fantasy's take on it, monarchy is the ultimate guardian of justince! Which upon consideration is a trope that I absolutely hate, and yet I've been so infected by the genre's monarchical ideology that all the novels I've written so far are suffused by it. I need an exorcism, but unfortunately I have to do it on myself, through more writing.
But you're right, we have a lot of pop culture telling us otherwise, and I think that's dangerous.
