->''"The most interesting thing about the Fireflies is that, in any other story, these would have been the heroes. The Fireflies are a rag-tag scrappy group of rebels resisting an evil tyrannical oppressive dystopian government. They are the underdog. They are outmatched, outgunned, overrun and yet they still fight on. In spite of all their failure, they never give up, at least not in this first game. They are determined, dogged, tenacious; they fight against impossible odds because they believe in a better world. The slogan of the Fireflies is, "When you're lost in the darkness, look for the light." Well, ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs'' is a very dark world. All of these characters are lost in some kind of darkness, and the Fireflies are offering a light; they are offering hope.''

->''"On the surface, they seem like a very archetypical band of heroes. They are intended to seem similar to other popular and heroic resistance groups across fiction and cinema. They are intentionally meant to remind us of groups like the Rebel Alliance in the ''Franchise/StarWars'' series, or Gordon Freeman and Alyx Vance, who lead the human resistance in ''VideoGame/HalfLife2''. There are even some similarities to the legend of [[Myth/RobinHood Robin Hood and his merry men]]. We are naturally going to be sympathetic to a group like this; audiences love an underdog, we love a rebellion, we love seeing a hero tear down the grim symbols of an authoritarian regime.''

->''"The enemy of the Fireflies is FEDRA, the Federal Disaster Response Agency. FEDRA is tasked with managing the United States' government response to the Cordyceps plague. As the disaster worsened, as more and more of the country collapsed into chaos, FEDRA seized more and more power, not out of greed, but out of necessity to save whatever was left. Ultimately, in the name of saving the country, FEDRA suspended all other branches and agencies of the government, suspended the Constitution, and declared perpetual martial law. They govern with a militaristic vice-like iron grip, ruling over every aspect of citizens' lives, casually killing any who oppose them.''

->''"The Fireflies are fighting in part to bring back the courts, the legislature, the laws protecting citizens' rights. They want to restore the Constitution, with peace and freedom and justice for all! But in the [[CrapsackWorld twisted]] and [[GreyAndGrayMorality morally gray]] world of ''The Last of Us'', [[WrongGenreSavvy even the heroes don't get to be heroes]]."''

For my generation this question is irrelevant: we immediately understood the moral and psychological meaning of the Resistance. For us it was a point of pride to know that we Europeans did not wait passively for liberation. And for the young Americans who were paying with their blood for our restored freedom it meant something to know that behind the firing lines there were Europeans paying their own debt in advance."''

->A list of stories about the OU was running through my head. How they supposedly had a secret network throughout the country. How they had members from all strata of society - public servants, farmers, doctors, mechanics, priests, IT workers, dock workers, lawyers, teacher - any sort of people you cared to name. How they were waging a hidden campaign against the [[DystopianEdict security laws]], against the detention laws, against [[OccupiersOutOfOurCountry the US bases]], against our involvement in all the wars - in other words, against just about everything that had happened in Australia over the last decade, all the way back to the September 11 attacks. How they had hundreds of safe houses from city to city, and ferried all kinds of illegal persons between them. How they had reportedly sabotaged US army vehicles or ambushed [[StateSec AFP]] roadblocks or broken imprisoned dissenters out of jail. How they scrawled their [[{{Catchphrase}} catchcry]] on billboards and brick walls and battleships, only to have it hastily painted over by the authorities: "Free Australia!" The words always accompanied by the drawing of an [[IconOfRebellion upside-down Southern Cross]].

-> ''The history of the European Resistance movements is largely mythological, since...the legitimacy of post-war regimes and governments essentially rested on their Resistance record. France is the [[TropeMaker extreme case]], because there the governments after Liberation lacked all real continuity with the French government of 1940, which had made peace and cooperated with the Germans, and because organized, and let alone armed, resistance had been rather weak, at any rate until 1944, and popular support for it had been patchy. Post-war France was rebuilt by [[UsefulNotes/CharlesDeGaulle General de Gaulle]] on the basis of the myth that, essentially, the eternal France had never accepted defeat. As he himself put it, "[[BecomingTheBoast Resistance was a bluff that came off]]"...It was an act of policy that the only fighters in the Second World War commemorated on French war memorials today are Resistance fighters, and those who joined De Gaulle's forces.''

->''"But it is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it America has failed to hear?"''

->''"Contrary to the beliefs/wishes of many, revolution, broadly considered, is a wholly straightforward phenomenon that has nothing to do with the supposed apathy of a population. Take any population and give them high unemployment, particularly high unemployment among younger and more educated citizens, remove all evidence of a long-term solution or even that the government cares about this, add in rising food prices, and crank up the temperatures to summer levels and you will have an explosion."''

->''"If they aren’t able to destroy the desire for freedom, they won’t break you. They won’t break me because the desire for freedom, and the freedom of the Irish people is in my heart. The day will dawn when all the people of Ireland will have the desire for freedom to show. It is then we’ll see the rising of the moon. I believe and stand by the God-given right of the Irish nation to sovereign independence, and the right of any Irishman or woman to assert this right in armed revolution."''

->''"There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part! You can't even passively take part! And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels…upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop! And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!"''
