| Metroid33slayer said: To be honest i really hate patriotism no matter which country it comes from. All it comes down to is "I'm better than you because i was born here and you were born over there". Patriotism has always been a tool used by goverments, Emperors and monarchies to coerce and fool it's people into war. The people think that they are fighting for their country when all they are actually fighting and dying for is the interests of a few men at the top that hold power. |
To each his own, I guess.
I just don't like seeing people look out for themselves (and their families, though I'm also seeing the family rot away right before my very eyes), but also the community and the nation. It is not wrong to fight to be treated fairly by other nations and nationalities, and it is not wrong to be proud of your fellow men and their achievements.
And, well, we simply aren't the same. I certainly wouldn't want to live under Sharia Law, and a Muslim would most likely refuse to live in the Hindu Caste System, and a Hindu would probably refuse to live in Imperial China, and a Chinese bureaucrat wouldn't get by in a Jewish state...you get my point.

I WON A BET AGAINST AZUREN! WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
