Step-by-step explanation:

The quote clearly is indicative to the people who dwell in a society that has no protocols and the people are negative in nature.

If an individual dwelling in the same society is wealthy and possesses a lot of honours, he is not getting the right form of the honour as the society that honours the person is itself unjust and negative.
