The same Generation Epsilon with their rules,

with their tools, with their games and with their language,

which sounds a little bit strange to me. I am 38 now.

And can you look at the age of the people on the streets of Europe?

It seems that Generation Epsilon is coming.

Now let me set another example.
现在请允许我再举一个例子。
I'm meeting different people throughout the world,
我与来自世界各地的很多人讨论过这个话题，
and they are, you know, academics and professors and doctors, and they will always talk conditions.
学者、教授、医生都有，他们都喜欢讲条件。
They will say, People power will work only if the regime is not too oppressive.
他们会说，只有政权对于人民的压迫过于深重的时候，人民的力量才会起作用。
They will say, People power will work if the annual income of the country is between X and Z.
他们还说：如果该国年人均收入在X和Z之间人民的力量才会起作用。
They will say, People power will work only if there is a foreign pressure.
他们说：只有外国施加压力时，人民的力量才会起效。
They will say, People power will work only if there is no oil.
他们说，只有在不牵涉的石油的情况下人民的力量才会起效。
And, I mean, there is a set of conditions.
这些条件确实存在。
Well, the news here is that your skills that you bring in the conflict seem to be more important than the conditions,
然而，真正的重点是，应对冲突的技能似乎比这些条件更加重要，
namely skills of unity, planning,
它们分别是团结、规划，
and maintaining nonviolent discipline.
和坚持和非暴力斗争。
Let me give you the example.
请允许我再举一个例子。
I am coming from a country called Serbia.

with their big egos, behind one single candidate against Balkan dictator Slobodan Milosevic.

Guess what? That was the day of his defeat.

You look at the Egyptians, they fire on Tahrir Square,
再看埃及人，他们在解放广场上示威时，
they get rid of their individual symbols.
去除了所有个人符号。
They appear on the street only with the flag of Egypt.
他们走上街头时只带着埃及国旗。
I will give you a counter-example.
请允许我再举一个反例。
You see nine presidential candidates running against Lukashenko.
有9个候选人和卢卡申科竞争总总统职位。
You will know the outcome.

So unity is a big thing, and this can be achieved.

Same with planning. Somebody has lied to you about the successful and spontaneous nonviolent revolution?
