A pig who struggles wildly and rends the air with his cries while he is held to be slaughtered, and a baby who kicks and screams when, wanting warmth and his mother's breast, he is made to wait in the cold—these are two samples of natural rebellion. Natural rebellion always inspires either deep sympathy and identification with the rebelling creature, or a stiffening of the heart and an activation of aggressive-defensive mechanisms to silence an accusing truth. <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Giovanni_Baldelli" title="Giovanni Baldelli">Giovanni Baldelli</a>, <i>Social Anarchism</i> (1971), p. 1</li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li>Rebellion presupposes the existence of oppression and, on the psychological plane, deification of rebellion creates an affective compact with oppression. <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Giovanni_Baldelli" title="Giovanni Baldelli">Giovanni Baldelli</a>, <i>Social Anarchism</i> (1971), p. 7</li></ul></li></ul> <ul><li>The questioning spirit is the rebellious spirit.

Euphoric moments are condensed to slogans on one hand and on the other into vivid narratives of the crimes of the fallen regime. What falls through the cracks is the process by which the actions of an often small dissident circle are translated into a mass movement involving a sufficient cross-section of society to sweep away a tyrant. If that clouds our understanding, so too does the tendency to limit our examination of rebellions to the facts of the revolutionary moment itself. Instead, what we should be doing is examining why populations ever accept dictatorships.
