Only the vacuous are 'Patriots'. It's another way of appealing to the people's prejudice, fueling hostility and creating conflict amongst the lower classes. The very fact people would venerate a system that creates a destitute lower stratum, that considers them parasites and represents the will of corporations shows how ignorant these people are. We shouldn't rejoice by our nationality, but rejoice under the banner of humanism. We must be proud of our liberal values, values like free speech and freedom of assembly. With this form of civic nationalism, if used in the right circumstances, can enlighten political agitations against monolithic establishments like the current political system. The support that could be going towards a worthy cause now goes towards creating an intractable system of government that is authoritarian, and they will never understand their wrongs without the entire people opposing and condemning each wrong... Permanent reformation in a sense. This way, we go through a long stage of gradation, with an informed public supporting the changes of a vanguard party. furthermore, we understand this system relies on Jingoism, Religion, etc, to fuel antagonisms within the prole. We must overcome this and understand the bourgeoisie are the gluttonous and callous pigs that are creating enmity within the Soul of our revolution. We must destroy each ligature of this malevolent system, and break free our wings and might of the chains of bourgeoise improbity. We must establish a new age, an age of reason!
