I agree with Rod. I also think context plays a huge role. The Estonian singing revolution was a display of pride despite Soviet annexation and occupation. That’s okay, but it differs greatly from national pride in most other cases

And when you feel like saying that after all this, you missed the entire point.

thank you, Nejde

All I'm saying is that you can and you are allowed to be proud of you country and nationality without that making you neither a racist or nationalist.

I've been following the whole conversation since the talk about Modi

In Sweden nowadays people are being called racists and nationalists because the say they're proud to be Swedish and like the Swedish flag. That's fucked up imo being called out as a bigot becsuse you're proud of your nationality.

Surely we can give credit that most people don't make it their whole personality. Only a (loud) minority do.
