Topic: Re: Patriotism and perverted patriotismQuote:
My roommate the other day asked me how come it was that in evry american movie or tv show you see US flags everywhere.. " are they force to do it? Is it the law or what? ". No comment. As for me, my view is that patriotism is when you love your country like you love your mother or father. I wouldn't say my mom is a better person than any other mother on earth, but I'll still love her over anyone else. |

I fully agree to italianforus
patriotism is to love your country not to think that your country is better than any other.... thats how the things started here 60 years ago... beside that i think you cant compare coutries that easy a nation is too complex to say that one is better than the other..theyre just different |

Spyfly, I still want to know what branch of the service you are in.
Anyway, you said Quote:
You can consider your country inferior to any one you like. But my question is, "When do you plan to move to the country you consider best?" and when you do, will you then consider your country "less worser" than your old country? What does any of this have to do with racism anyway? I think you switched tracks there without giving a signal. What countries consider nationalism the same as Natizism? Don't just throw out a statement with no facts to back it up. Name these countries, please. |

Somehow this thread got split, and this reply was to the fractured part of the thread, just reposting it here.

I don't see how you can view your country like that. If you don't believe that your nation is the best place in the world to live and you have no love for it, what are you still doing there? Unless of course you are completely apathetic and just couldn't care less where you live. Quote:
Wrong answer. Unless you have managed to miss it somehow, you know that RACE has nothing to do with nationality in most areas of the Western world. I have friends of Middle Eastern, Asian, African, East Indian, American Indian, and Latino descent (and I'm probably missing a couple there, too), with one thing in common, they are all American, and to the man they share my views on America, but I think you would be very hard pressed to drive home your point that any of us are racist. As has been said before, every willing citizen of ANY country should believe that, for whatever reason, their own country is the best place in the world for them to live, and should be motivated to do what is right for that nation. |
