From this thread over on /r/leftypiece where I’ve been arguing with vaushites who are currently trying to push people against this.

Also people keep forgetting the fact that the World Govt. would never allow islands like Arabasta to be ruled by a leftist leadership. Much of the post arc of arabasta was showcasing how Luffy’s success in liberating the country is limited by the hegemony imposed by the world govt.
Tldr: it would be even more irresponsible of luffy to get rid of the monarchy since it would put those islands on the hit list of the marines and cipher pol. More of this can be ascribed to the revolutionary army rather than luffy and co.
spoilers-and-cw
The latest chapters demonstrate that the world govt. is willing to nuke entire islands just to show off their power.
Also all the people luffy defeats are people who choose to preserve the current system to their own benefit. Doflamingo (and Kaido) funded wars, crocodile attempted to create a military dictatorship, Enel represents the WG’s view of the world (much of skypia is just a pictaresque view of the entire story).
