Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker declares that nobody can truly be free until the mistreatment of nerds stops. Treating a schoolyard grievance as a grand civil-rights cause, the line sounds both earnest and comically sweeping, tying everyone's liberty to the fate of the outcasts.
