    • 2016 August 5, “La dignidad y la insumisión”, in El Universo[1]:
      El concepto de insumisión es claro: si lo que pretende el poderoso es destruir –aunque diga que no es así– la dignidad personal y colectiva, nadie está obligado a someterse a dictados injustos, abusivos, ilegítimos e ilegales.
      The concept of mutiny is clear: if the powers that be are intent on destroying (no matter if they say it isn't so) collective and personal dignity, nobody is forced to be subjected to orders that are unjust, abusive, illegitimate and illegal.
