Replying to Avatar a source familiar with the matter

Resolve to serve no more, and you are at once freed. I do not ask that you place hands upon the tyrant to topple him over, but simply that you support him no longer; then you will behold him, like a great Colossus whose pedestal has been pulled away, fall of his own weight and break in pieces.

That’s a good one. This community seems acutely aware of the existence of a tyrant.

What people seem to disagree on, is who exactly that tyrant is.
