as great as it sounds how are we to "gently become stronger" when the "jailors" deny us the means to? When we have to struggle for basic necessities, how are we supposed to grow to become better versions of ourselves?

Millions of people are being forced back into the struggle for survival, not under nature this time but under another man's system.

Becoming stronger is also not an individuals' quest, it'd take collective action to abolish current systems, and that requires a degree of loudness, silence between individuals only creates opportunities for "the man" to create divisions between us, rendering our efforts fruitless.

I'm also a fan of relishing in the idea of striving towards revolt, but it's never as simple as enduring until you're strong enough. You need to talk with your inmates, help them, so they help you, so together we have a chance against the jailors.
