Edit: Omg, a Daily Deviation
Well, I want to thank every Deviant who commented, faved, in particulary who suggested my work ^^
This is the first time I receive so much feedback, it's a real pleasure but in another way it makes me love more than never my first favers, watchers and commentators
But I love you too, don't worry
I also want to precise that this idea was born when I thought about all these kings who have hanged so much innocent people.
So it's not an incitation to Anarchy but Vendetta & Revolution ^^
EditΒ²: For all those who said that crowned people will become kings, be sure that kings who comes from the people, who suffers with him, and thanks to that understands his needs and suffering will certainly leads one hundred times better that all these born-kings.
For all those who will read this comment ( omg I hope I didn't make mistakes ,_, Sorry if I said weird things, I'm not english xD ) I wish you a nice day !

This is Madness !
This is Politics.

I know now the politicians in power seek to become kings, sadly for them the reign of kings is practially dead
I think "forgotten ideals in the Modern age" would work, or a variation of that
of course, praise must be dealt out to those deserving

This made me think of Stephen Colbert skewering Sean Hannity. Hannity was on Fox, trying to say that the whole situation was an Islamic power grab, and actually said, "These revolutions for democracy never work. I can't think of a single time in history that it's happened successfully, can you?" Colbert's answer? "No. Oh, wait, except for the Czech Republic, France, India ... annnnd, I think I'm forgetting something ... oh, yes! The United States!"
Awesome quote. Crown the people, indeed!

Ah, these are the concepts that I love. I really like the use of simple presentation for such a monumental suggestion. Well done.

No problem at all. I didn't even notice your icon. Also epic. I have the symbol with the text 'IDEAS ARE BULLETPROOF' tattooed over my heart.

Yeah, this quote is wonderful

if you crown the people, do you have to hang them then too?
π: 0 β©: 1
Hum, in theory, if all people are kings, there is no more people to hang them
But for this, they have to keep everyone king
π: 0 β©: 1
but if there are no people left, and if there are only kings, isnt it then even worse than before? Therefore we should rather hang the people and crown the kings to make sure that there are only people left.
π: 0 β©: 1
So you're okay to be hanged ?

if thats what it takes. isnt it all for the greater good? what is one life or even thousends of lifes compared to the greatnes one could achieve by just following the one right and clear path.

This has probably already been said, but great message and I love the simple colors (both for their aesthetic and symbolism). Great work

Such a true message. What does the monarchy, or the leaders do for any of us, except to make matters worse? Spectacular!

I'm glad that you're agree with this message ^^
Thanks a lot for this comment

Your artwork is definetely not madness nor Politics with the strict meaning of the word. It's a pure and healthy statement against injustice!
I believe many people in many countries (in my country as well ) felt a huge relief to see that at least art is not blind!! There is so much anger in the world right now...What happened to Egypt and Tunisia and what happens everyday for years now is so unfair for their people.
Your work is a ribbon of hope!! Thank you!!

No, thank YOU for this wonder comment
I'm so glad that you see the positive message in it ^^
And a big up for Greece, your people is proud, just like Egypt and Tunisia !
π: 0 β©: 1
That's what I told through my journal[link] yesterday..and it's the first time Greek friends feel as united as a fist..
I wish I had seen your work before it was posted on DDs.But that's okay because this topic tend to be an all-time-classic one..
and whatsmore proves that DA is fair!
Btw the artistic result is awesome too!!

In difficult times, people are closer ! It's a nice thing ^^
Yeah, I was surprised that the DD group accepted my work because it's not really politically correct
Thanks again !

The message is good in this piece. Society has reached a point where the people in charge have failed; and because of this the common people are paying the price. Destroy, rebuild.

Exactly, your two last words sums up very well what people should do actually ^^
Thanks a lot for your comment

Humans are such pack animals, they always need someone to lead them. Nonetheless, great picture, well worth a fav

Perhaps they need someone to guide them, but I'm sure that other ways of life are possible, without proclamed kings to tell us what we have to do.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, I believe the other ways of life are possible to those who are strong enough to act on their own. Too bad the majority of the people don't belong in that blessed group.

Unfortunately, you're right :/
We have to wake up this type of people ^^

Well, well. DD is well received, without a doubt. Very reasonable...
However, my personal message from this is that this system would extinguish all humanity (again... not, that we don't let politicians do that already...), since when the people were crowned, they'd in fact be kings as well...
And as far as I can tell (without being a politician at all), people moan as long as they don't have anything to say (since democracy is just another way to say "better than you"...), but as soon as they are in a position where their needs and wishes COULD be respected the way they should be, they almost instantly become corrupted by the very system they doomed before...

Tell me, between a king born with a crown, who don't know the feeling of being hungry, the poverty, the suffering, who makes the everyday life of his people; and a king who comes from this same people, able to understand what they need and feel, who will be the "less worst" king ?
You don't have to be a politician to give your opinion
To prevent this corruption, we just have to organise a new system when no one will stay too much time in the throne to love it too much.
Thanks for your comment x)

Politicians don't give their opinion, they do it
The problem is, and history has proven it time and time again, that power corrupts exponentially to it's amount... No matter who has become a king in the last 2000 years wouldn't stand a real chance in today's court, and giving that it's been quite some time and development since then, you can hardly argue that humanity and human rights (in their own or other countries) have been their highest concern... And today's equals to a king, the presidents, do just the same, although most (some) of them have been elected by their people...

Even if it's simple, there is so much truth and power in it.
I think you're absolutely right!
I live in democracy, but it's a lie!
Yes, I other countries there's much worse, but for me it's hard enough.
In my opinion democracy (in my country) IS modern monarchy.
We have to pay so much money for things we don't want or need.
Just because the state wants it. We have to fight for our lives with sometimes three jobs at the same time.
And they get richer and richer...
They're just talking...
If they do something, then just for them...
In the end, we're the ones, who pay their bills...
Always...

Sad but unfortunately so true :/
It's time to change, don't desperate ^^

Holy shit. Sorry for those swear words. But I REALLY wanted to see someone saying that.
And bumping with such a message on dA... I thought this would never happen. Thanks for voicing us!!! Your work is incredible.

Thanks again for this kind comment ^^
I'm really glad that you liked it, and it's a pleasure and a duty to diffuse these messages
Don't hesitate to diffuse your own opinions, if you want changement, make it yourself !

You're welcome" More than deserved!
I agree with you...
"If you want changement, make it yourself" this is so true. I should make a change too.
Thanks for everything.

I'm sure that you will make great things ^^ Keep it up !

Thank you very much dear... I am in a terrible day... Really terrible. But your words are so cheerful... I'm also totally sure you'll make great things as well! Keep it up!!
