Mexican Monarchy

Let’s make out of all that rubbish coming in newspapers, written in magazines and transmitted by television about kings and queens a big institution; even more structured and profitable than it already is.  The field of action?, the playground?  México. A country without a monarchy; that had it once in prehispanic times and lost it by enemies weapons. A country opened to the show, to the spectacle.  Which needs the creation of companies and money flow, that adores the implementation of foreigner ideas adapted to it self. 

The creation of Mexican Kings.  It just begins the way it was explained before.  Like a big show.  The objective?  To end up being official so the earnings can go to the sky.  It must. It is recorded, registered and transmitted, broadcasted and published.  It gets the format of a proper “reality show”.  Laughs are added, all the critics, all the interventions, opinions from celebrities and authorities, all the polemics and the images… all the images.

The issues are adapted to the different sectors of the society.  It is painted green and then yellow, blue and then red.  It can be superficial, it can be noisy, it can turn scientific and philosophic, morbid, but always creative.  Anyway, always unedited, not in México neither in the World.     

A good planning is needed, structuring and defining, to invert and to prepare, to construct and to adapt.  A letter of convocation is done, a contest is programmed and all the unnecessary is filtered.  That what you get is a model family of at least 10 persons, a hundred per cent Mexicans, with brown skin, with kids, grown ups and old people. The perfect sons, the perfect parents and the perfect grandparents.  At least at the beginning.  The process is broadcasted at its maximum.

Arbitrarily it breaks into society.  Everybody speak about the new Mexican kings.  The leg is already pulled and pulled hard, but the artifice works.  They are little by little accepted. The media has lots of things to do. At the end they are well known and they begin to be loved.  Everybody speak about them.  They become an icon and now, completely important and indispensable.

The fists endeavors of official reconnaissance appear, and some time latter the firsts ones of the international ones take place.  In the World just like in México it begins like a joke and after the habit they become “The only kings of México”. The agenda is set. Postmodern kings with artificial characteristics, “Blue 324” blood by Comex is running along their veins. A life made out of theatrical properties is prepared.  Kings who live thanks to the artifice created for them selves.  The instauration of The Mexican Monarchy.  An excellent pretext of a revolution without arms. A good joke that Mexico tells to the World… and to its own self.
