Nationalism tells you your nation is what to be proud of, but that's dangerous and manipulative.

Instead, focus on the people. You can be proud of the people who are protesting, people who are running secret grocery runs for people hiding from ICE, people promoting progressive or scientific thought in threatened educational spaces, and so on.

There are still plenty of us left in the US, some against our will, and you can still be proud of them for still trying when so many others have given up.
