re: #186 albusteve

patriotism is not about the US, it’s about people…if you were misunderstood, it was an easy mistake

albusteve,

Let me tell you a secret.
{a bit closer, I have to whisper.}

SB I think brought up Nationalism, when he did that, I had to go looking to see what the difference was between patriotism and nationalism.

In Australia we rarely use either term.

My version of patriotism cant be nationalism because I think defined groups within countries could be patriotic to a cause, and not really about a country.

I’ll give you a link:
Patriotism is a love and devotion to one’s country. It has had different meanings over time and its meaning is highly dependent upon context, geography, and philosophy.

Ok, now don’t tell anyone.
