Yes, I'm not trying to blame imperialism on enforced hetrosexual monogamy but there are ways that enforcing it made imperialism more palatable to imperial subjects in the core

When there is only one way to live your life, enforced by the church and the state, it becomes easier to accept arguments from the same church and state that we need to force that way of life on others even if the real reasons for the war and conquest are imperialism

Monogamy was mostly about the upper class families only having one legitimate heir who takes everything, thus building and maintaining intergenerational wealth. Despite having a single heir, ruling class families are otherwise organized the way a mafia family is

Polyamorous communal families, including queer ones would provide a direct challenge not only to the preserved status quo but also a potential material challenge to the wealthy families that have historically ruled throughout most of feudal, mercantile and capitalist history

2 peasants or serfs will remain poor together, 5 or more and you suddenly have options and opportunities that wouldn't exist under enforced monogamy. It's not a revolution but it's the kind of thinking that can easily evolve into revolutionary thought

Enforced hetrosexuality is mostly about making women into baby factories and raising those babies into soldiers in service of imperialism so that's another way this is related

Sorry I may have gotten too high and lost my own train of thought
