Reformist and power
The hardest part of being reformist is when the distribution of the gain after the reformation takes place. Gie has his own way: to be a real reformist is just like a cowboy that come to a town facing the bad guy and the go home and doing the usual things better, not by being a replacement of the former. Gie has his way. Only poetry, mountains, and love that could understand him. Please also don’t forget the history:” Napoleon oppose the emperor in the name of the people and then he become the dictator emperor”
I don’t want to say that what happen in Gie and Napoleon time are just the repetitions of nowadays time. But you could compare. Please remind them that they are having the gains of reformation today caused by the sacrifice of life many peoples and students.
