Simplified meaning
When people are treated unfairly, they will often protest or rebel. Imagine a town where the government is not listening to the needs or problems of the residents. They might ignore issues like poor living conditions or unfair laws. If the townspeople feel ignored and mistreated for too long, they will start to speak out and demand change. They might organize protests, strikes, or other forms of civil unrest to force the government to pay attention. Essentially, the idea is that a government cannot expect its people to remain calm and peaceful if it is not providing them with fair treatment and justice. To apply this in everyday life, if you see unfairness at work, school, or in your community, standing up and speaking out can help bring about change and ensure that everyone gets fair treatment.
