If co-operation is a duty, I hold that non-co-operation also under certain conditions is equally a duty.

Summary

This quote suggests that while cooperation is usually seen as a moral duty, there are certain circumstances where non-cooperation can also be justified as a duty. It implies that there may be situations where individuals are morally compelled to stand against a particular cause, system, or action, and refuse to cooperate with it. This perspective underscores the importance of critical thinking and personal ethics in grappling with complex moral dilemmas, highlighting how conscious non-cooperation can sometimes align with one's principles and be viewed as a moral obligation.
