    “Dissidence makes society more plural and should not be politically repressed”, says the great Angela Davis. Dissidence is a legitimate political expression, a civil and political right, and is only repressed by governments refusing to accept divergent opinions.

    Thanks to the SCOTUS ruling in Rucho, it is officially confirmed, should there be any shred of a doubt lingering somewhere, that checks and balances belong to the past.
