A political dissident is somebody who is fed up with authoritarianism and corrupt government. They actively seek revolution and will defend the foundation of liberty at all costs. If everyone wore this shirt, the state would be shaking in their boots. As we've seen with revolutions throughout history, a regime can only stay in power with the consent or complacency of the public. Once the people stand up and revolt, the game is over; power is extinguished, empires collapse.
