Tee, hee, hee. But, don't you see Yoshie, when the revolution comes, no one 
will have to fight at all. No one will have to worry about taking "power." 
No. No. Dirty, dirty power. No touch! All those who have petitioned for the 
"civil liberties and democratic rights everywhere, regardless of the 
country's economic, political, or social system" will just be raptured into 
endless socialist democratic bliss.
