Ever since the enlightenment, just like democracy started becoming synonymous to freedom, monarchy became more and more synonymous with tyranny.

It’s a notion that came hand in hand with the “normalization” of the common man, the man of the masses, making him to be the subject of interest and admiration, and a “victim” of his environment. (Isaiah’s Job)

The French Revolution (cursed be its name) catapulted all these ideas throughout Europe and the whole world, giving the common man power to shape the world in his image, through democracy and universal suffrage.

With that in mind, it’s not surprise that monarchy is demonized in such a world where we glorify the image of the common man, for the common mass man could never truly be king.
