About This Quote

The act of dissenting was created by someone who felt strongly enough about an issue to say, “No, I do not accept this and, as my silence may be construed as acquiescence, I would like to make a small gesture to indicate that you can all go fuck yourselves.” The act of dissent is a way for someone to express their opinion without having to say what they think. The act of dissent is the refusal to accept the status quo. It is making a point by saying that it is okay to be different, that you are allowed to think for yourself.
