Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

The King lives in luxury because his ancestors killed your ancestors and left their children in poverty to work for him.
That's not a strawman.
I provided the background that your claim "children are innocent of their parents' crimes" isn't just.
The danish monarchy is so old that this is so far in the past that it literally does not matter any more. A couple of generations, sure. 1000 years of generations? Nobody cares and I don't think it's reasonable to blame anyone for crimes made by ancestors that far in the past. It's not like we blame me for my ancestors (vikings) pillaging of Englang and other horrible things they did.
The King was still profiting from African slave trade in the early 1800's.

Lots of people where profiting from slave trade 200 years ago and we don't prosecute any ancestors of those people today. I really don't know what your point is.
You said his parents crimes aren't his to bear and I argue that children shouldn't benefit from the crimes of their parents.
