このコンテンツについて
In early 1776, Thomas Paine set fire to the old world with his pen. His pamphlet Common Sense didn’t just argue for American independence; it attacked the very idea of monarchy itself. Paine called King George III “the royal brute of Britain” and dismissed hereditary rule as absurd, insisting that no man was born to govern another.
He wrote in plain, direct language that ordinary people could understand, mocking the pomp and privilege of kings while reminding readers that real power belongs to the people. His words stripped away the illusion of divine right and exposed monarchy as a system built on fear and habit.
In this episode, we explore Paine’s fearless assault on tyranny, his scathing humor, and how his ideas helped ordinary colonists see themselves as citizens instead of subjects. Paine didn’t just challenge a king; he challenged an entire way of thinking—and changed the world forever.
