Description

A party in a mixed giants-tinies society with a simple program: the tinies have no more rights (what a ridiculous idea) and the giants can have them as they please.

The story : Political shift : GIANTS FIRST #0 introThe world has always been populated by 2 related species, identical in every way except size: Giants and Humans.After centuries of oppression and slavery, the tiny humans were granted rights, at first a simple recognition that they were sentient beings, then the same rights as the giants, and a mixed human-giant society emerged at the time of the Industrial Revolution. With structures and cities adapted to this cohabitation.Almost 2 centuries later, little people and giants live, work and go to university together. Many are comrades, even friends. Some mixed couples exist.But a growing fringe of the giant population rejects the rights of the little ones, and fantasizes about the absolute power of the former giant empires. They want to return to that golden age, and return the little humans to slavery.More and more influential groups rise up at every election, arguing that the little ones are useless because they have the least back-breaking jobs (in the service sector, finance, administration, ...) and often have a much better standard of living than the giants (a tiny house or a tiny car costs much less to finance than a giant's house or car ...).The giants obviously have the most arduous jobs in terms of strength and handling (why hire 100 little guys when a single giant's salary can do the same job effortlessly?). It's hardly acceptable for more and more giants to see insignificant little ants at their feet enjoying luxuries they can't afford.These economic arguments, coupled with a rhetoric about the natural order of domination of the giants in the food chain, have gained more and more followers. Not least in the police and army. Which were, of course, made up mainly of giants as mobilizable forces.Until the election victory, against all the polls and in the world's leading political power, of the "GIANTS FIRST" party candidate, publicly supported by the giant chiefs of police and army.On the very day of the takeover, the little human leaders of the various political bodies made it clear to the newly-elected giant president that his program was unconstitutional and unworkable... they hadn't even finished their speech when the new president grabbed a large handful of the terrorized leaders and swallowed them alive on live television.Panic among all the little people present was filmed as the newly-elected government applied its program on live TV, crushing and swallowing the old administration.The pro-small-human giants were prevented from acting by the police and army on the side of the new government.The President then makes his speech: « By decree with immediate effect, all laws and rights concerning tiny humans are immediately abolished, and the giants, once again masters of their own home, can dispose of them as they please. There is, however, one rule of ownership: the first giant to find a tiny becomes its full owner. In the case of a disagreement, proof will have to be provided, otherwise the state will sell the tiny at public auction. The rights and organization of the society for giants remain unchanged. »The national police chief takes the floor:"All infractions involving giants will continue to be punished by the law with the same severity as before. Tinies are private property once collected by the first giant to find them, he can dispose of them in any way he likes. So if another giant takes by force a tiny that is the property of a giant who found it before him, or if he tries to prevent the owner from enjoying his property in any way (with the goal of "rescuing" or "freeing" a tiny that will nevertheless only be in its natural place with its master), he can be charged with a serious criminal offense and imprisoned!"The president takes the floor again, and delivers a long speech on the rights of the strong over the weak, awkwardly mixing natural selection theory and ancient mythology of giant empires with capricious and cruel gods…Meanwhile, a wind of terror and panic, and a thirst for absolute power and domination, blows across the country.Anti-"GIANTS FIRST" demonstrations turn to slaughter as giant policemen and soldiers go on the rampage, crushing with various body parts, swallowing whole handfuls of demonstrators, humiliating and capturing tinies in various parts of their clothes, accessories or bodies...from the giant's point of view, the scene looked more like a bunch of buddies laughing and having fun tormenting an ant hill.,
