Then I’d understand and mourn your cynicism, but not think of you as a bad citizen.

Damn. I don’t particularly like being a citizen of anywhere, let alone a good one.

Citizenship is responsibility - participation in the civic life of a polity. That’s what being a citizen, and not simply a subject, means - to have the right to a share in the direction of the polity. Like it or not, if you’re active in exercising your influence to affect politics instead of abrogating that power to the elite, you’re a good citizen of wherever you live.

There, there. It’ll be alright…
