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…
Okay but what if I only vote as a joke?
In that case, you can be a bad citizen.
Good. I don’t want people thinking I approve of nation-states or anything like that.
