I guess it depends which situation we’re talking about specifically. You don’t need a monarch to have problems with police overreach and overly draconian/authoritarian laws being brought in. I think we can safely say that this happens in all types of political/governing systems. That’s the crux of the issue being talked about in the article. The issue of the Royal Family is related (and particularly relevant given recent events) but the two issues should not be conflated fully.
