Naya [18.7K]3 years ago
4 0

According to Thoreau citizens are obligated to act on their conscience, sometimes this means giving opposition to an opinion of those in the majority. These include the likes of present leaders, and societal laws. According to him service to one’s country and resistance are a paradox. He claims patriotism in its highest form is that of resistance.as it strongly shows a passion for not subverting the government, yet, built it better in the long run. Thoreau does not really support a blanket refutation of government, but challenges to specific characters and qualities believed to be one-sided or morally wrong.
