THE KING

I cannot believe one would believe the King is still “the king”. First of all, the King was never “the king”. Ever. Secondly, just because it is labeled as the King, does not necessarily make it “the king”. Look at Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Is he a rock? No, of course not. There is nothing rock-like about him, except for his acting. He was wrestler, then a slave to Disney, making terrible, terrible family movies. Now that the contract ended, he is a slave to making terrible, terrible movies in general. But I digress.

The King has tried many different aspects. By calling oneself a king, one brings a sense of automatic power and authority. But then, realizing the lack of true power it had, it switched its tactics. It started to reach out towards the people, telling them they could have their methods of choice. The King has become a subservient, asking the people for answers. It had lost its throne to the power of democracy, by its own accord. Kings of countries have lost their power to the people in many places, and have become figureheads of tradition and celebrities, because the people decided. In other places, the kings keep an iron grip among the population.

But the King lost its power by simply taking on a new ad campaign. Asking people for their way as a change of face. Too bad it has still lost its power. McDonald’s has better fries anyway.
