#grrrrr#nobody should make him a republican nepo baby wearing chinos and oppressing the gays jfc#anyway there's a scholarly article about how The Fandom (approx. six people) were all seduced to fascism by skinny white british men so#i am now always deeply personally offended by this take#anyhow op of that post is not the first people to come up with 'people like richard too much now and it is Bad and Uncritical'#anyway it's not really a hero/villain play#if you associate the two sides with particular modern political factions#it's gonna get you in trouble pretty quickly#if you align richard with present-day oppressors#the play is not gonna work the way you want it to
