Those #elite wielding #power must ever be reminded their power flows from the consent of the #people; whose might, when roused, flows over them like a flood.

The only defense the powerful have ever devised is division; pitting the #class that would drown them, against one another.

The only defense the people have ever devised is uniting to instill the fear necessary to ensure their #demands are met.

Say what you will about #ThomasJefferson, but he understood this explicitly.
