Dissent Is The Only Decent Response
DISSENT IS THE ONLY DECENT RESPONSE
I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned.
This world is run by lies, by greed and fear and trickery.
I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned.
Everywhere is conflict, bigotry, racism and sexism.
I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned.
“They’re changing guard at Buckingham Palace –
Christopher Robin went down with Alice.”
“The life of the poor and the life of the Queen
When looked at in contrast both seem quite obscene,”
Says Alice. “I may know, but I do not approve.”

People rule the world with an ability to create blind following. This majority becomes their weapon – people who are ready to demolish the minority. If those who do not approve are not succeeding, it is because they failed to create that majority.
