Between that and Nemik expanding on August Spies last worlds, I spent most of my 1st watch of #AndorFinale crying.
"The day will come when our silence will be more powerful than the voices you strangle today."
"And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege."

In a week time it's #MayDay! So time for some historical awareness for anarchists, socialist and non-authoritarian communists (tankies can skip this post, because they are already to deep in the Stalinist/Maoist rabbit hole).
