that we are powerless, then we are. That's the most comfortable
position for an authoritarian
to convince you there is nothing you can do. (sirens wailing) If we stop ourselves

1,000 Cubans in jail right now,

what all those Cubans could one day do
that we are powerless, then we are. That's the most comfortable

even before trying, then they already won, and they base their strategy
