the moment a single 'no' realizes it could be a chorus
means An organized act of open resistance or armed defiance against an established authority or government.
from From Latin 'rebellio,' built from 're-' (again) plus 'bellum' (war) — literally a renewal of war. The Romans coined it for conquered peoples who, having once been beaten, took up arms a second time; to rebel was, quite precisely, to fight again. It traveled through Old French 'rebellion' into English in the late Middle Ages.
