I have a friend that rants that most eunuchs were trans and tbh she's probably right
i'm trans and probably of-stock but i gotta say i'm a chaotic petty meanie who absolutely wants to be in the ear of people with my opinions and i am not loyal to a damn thing except what i think is good so
bring back eunuch advisors but if i tell you your shit is wack and you keep doing it just assume the knife is coming.
Well the knife part would be bad were I a monarch but otherwise I think the only reason I'd instate a eunuch council would be to bounce ideas back and forth with people who disagree with me. If I wanted a bunch of yes-people who agree and praise my every thought I'd get a harem.

As a trans woman, I'll volunteer
Wasn't there like a whole empowered clique of eunuchs that ruled the political scene of the capital and constantly butted heads with the military and the regional lordlings?
IIRC the Mamluk dynasty began with eunuchs. They engaged in massive infrastructure projects because they didn’t have born-heirs.
mamluks weren't generally eunuchs, the mamluks were a special class removed from dynasty and family structures in order to (theoretically) make them a loyal army for a ruler. when they seized power they generally did not have legal offspring and the martial culture of mamluk corps were less concerned with heredity, ersatz familial patronage between senior and junior mamluks was just as likely the path of succession in the first or second generation until one of them had a heir who reaches majority before the father dies and can perpetuate a real hereditary line. Sebuktigin of Ghazna took over from his commander/mentor Alptegin. The mamluk sultanate of Delhi didn't settle into a hereditary succession til the third, Iltutmish.
I think this is how you get a Yellow Turban rebellion more than anything lol
Is this a color revolution?

Every court needs it's scheming eunuch, it's doddering old king, it's indolent heir, it's ambitious guard captain, it's power broker soon-to-be dowager queen, and it's fucking stupid cousin or nephew who ends up king when everyone else kills each other.
Now we have Unix advisors.
