Yikes. Is this from the "committee to save endangered ideologies"? Which think tank came up with this lol
Brazilian "patriots" bow to USA demands, so they're also dumb
I will add that ethnicity, religious identification or lack thereof, or nationality doesn't exempt anyone. USA and Christianity aren't the first, only, or last to reinvent and suppress the parts of history we don't like, but we're certainly going full throttle, along with some other states and religions.
Patriotism: Pride in your country for what it does.
Nationalism: Pride in your country in spite of what it does.
Let me fix that for you:
Patriotism: Pride in a nation-state.
Nationalism: Pride in a nation-state.
