The peasants shared a common version of reality and had a king living within a distance they could reach with a guillotine. We do not live in a comparable world unfortunately. We have decentralized kings, a system that encourages their replication, and propaganda networks that create “reality” to keep us separated :(

You honestly think peasants could reach the king without getting gutted by their guards within seconds?

Yes.

Actually no. Did any of the six people upvoting you actually read the article and linked articles? None of them ever ended with the death of a king (if I’m not mistaken) and out of the around two dozen revolts listed, only two were victories that one might call permanent. The moment things escalated into actual battles, almost all revolts failed. I didn’t double check my numbers, but even if it’s one more or less, this doesn’t change anything.

There’s usually more peasants than guards.
