My mother always told me that a part of being young is having a yearning to save the world. As the new generation emerges we find ourselves wanting to make the world a better place. Revolutions are a part of this. We become Achillean, seeing it fit to bind a cohort of individuals together to “damn the man.” While some might see this type of revolt as revolting or barbaric, where would the world be without youthful optimism to change the world? The world would be a very dull, bleak place. It would be achromatic and prosaic. So, yes, every generation needs a revolution, because sometimes what others see as “barbaric” insanity is just what we need to keep the world sane.
