You do not become a "dissident" just because you decide one day to take up this most unusual career. You are thrown into it by your personal sense of responsibility, combined with a complex set of external circumstances. You are cast out of the existing structures and placed in a position of conflict with them. It begins as an attempt to do your work well, and ends with being branded an enemy of society.


Vaclev Havel.

There is an answer with a physical demonstration for those who say
"There is no such thing as nothingness".
If you take a sheet, it represents energy. Wrinkle the sheet, and
those wrinkles represent the conformation of energy, which general
systems engineering calls "information".
Pull the sheet out straight and the wrinkles (information)
disappear. It becomes nonexistent. Where the information was and is no
more is nonexistence.
In 1John1:5 it says "God is light".
Energy transfers in atoms are photons, quanta of light. Light is energy.
Energy is God. His creation is "information".
If we were energy we would never sleep. But, we are only the
"conformation of energy", we are only information.

“What I call middle-class society is any society that becomes rigidified in predetermined forms, forbidding all evolution, all gains, all progress, all discovery. I call middle-class a closed society in which life has no taste, in which the air is tainted, in which ideas and men are corrupt. And I think that a man who takes a stand against this death is in a sense a revolutionary.”

Frantz Fanon
