When Dr. Johnson uttered his immortal line,
[N]o government power can be abused long. Mankind will not bear it. If a sovereign oppresses his people to a great degree, they will rise and cut off his head. There is a remedy in human nature against tyranny, that will keep us safe under every form of government. he anticipated protests like the one in Hong Kong. Sadly, he couldn't have anticipated the People's Republic of China.
