Title: Patriotism vs. Nationalism! SPOT ON!
Post by: MuscleMcMannus on February 10, 2009, 06:21:23 AM
The difference between patriotism and nationalism is that the patriot is proud of his country for what it does and the nationalist is proud of his country no matter what it does.

The first attitude creates a feeling of responsibility, but the second a feeling of blind arrogance that leads to war.

Are you saying a person cannot love or be proud of his country without serving in the military?

Haha I don't decry the individual soldier........I decry the US Government and the extention of that corrupt entity aka the US military yes.  Guilt by assocation?  Maybe.  I understand soldiers have a job to do and are unfortunate pawns being used to fulfill the tyranny of government.  But brainwashed morons like you do not represent true patriotism.  They represent propaganda.
