Ok. So, something of a conspiracy IMHO.
I see patriotism as one of the most ridiculous examples of brainwashing around. Only caring about the people inside your imaginary boundary lines isnt just tribal, it's backwards.
Honestly nothing funnier than a bunch of idiots staring at their flag singing their 'theme tune'.
Dont get me wrong, i like preserving traditions, but if your country is like a few hundred years old and founded on immigration it is pretty fucking dumb to be overtly patriotic. Not to mention the govt bootlicking side of it, which is of course, tragic.
I'm being facetious, hoping to hear both sides- i am definitely not a globalist!
Patriotism is the banding together for self-preservation in a tough world, where one person alone has far less chance of survival but a group has better chances.
I'll take that over being a free spirit picking daisies while the bear charges me.
Isn't it pretty arbitrary though? I mean it literally just comes down to where you are born...
Bro, I am sorry you are so butt hurt. Please enlighten me how the USA is not predominantly founded on immigration. Are you saying indigenous Americans account for way more than the 2% we are told?
