People like to talk about their rights, but rights can only exist in a society where people fulfill their duties as citizens.
For example, you have the right to be treated with dignity, but it is also your duty to treat others with dignity.
You have the right to not be discriminated, but also the duty to not discriminate others. And so on.
As a citizen, you have freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom to vote... but it is also your duty to develop critical thinking and stay informed so you can exercise those freedoms for the greater good.
