If a country needs to overly emphasise an ideal, that's usually because that ideal doesn't apply in that country ("Land of the free", "Democratic people's republic of ...").

If a person needs to subscribe to patriotism, it's usually because they have never accomplished anything better in their life than being born in a specific place.

Nationalism is a cancer that has caused millions of deaths. Fuck that. They are tools used to distract from the fact that oligarchs steal everyone's wages and livehoods.
