We have an ongoing battle between those who want liberty and those who want control. I have tried to figure out a way to express this battle. I have decided to use the plow to represent the common people and the crown to represent the elites.
The plow was the most common tool for most of written history. As late at the 19th century most people were farmers. The plow produced food and represents the beginning of civilization as hunter gatherers began to stay in settled locations.
The crown should be obvious. Today it might be a clip-board or a limo but you get the idea. Some people think they are anointed to be at the top.
The crown can be worn at any level. It can be the head janitor if you work in an office. It can be the cop who stops you for “driving while black.” It can be the clerk that takes forever to stop doing her nails and then determines that you forgot to check a box on the form.
They are everywhere and they are smothering us.
