Me on Fourth of July like
Anyway, stop spreading white nationalist rhetoric and toxic nationalism thanks
Nobody said anything about race. Stop that.
It’s nationalist to state facts now?
How is this toxic?
Show me countries better than the USA.

what exactly makes america the “best country” here? america doesn’t excel in anything.
I was gonna say aren’t we like #1 in a bunch of bad stats? Like aren’t we the top for rape and abuse?
we are superior in waging wars, exporting and using firearms, and incarcerating the population among a lot of other terrible things. how depressing is patriotism and nationalism?
I remember this epic moment from The Newsroom
Americans just buy into the propaganda they are the greatest country when there is absolutely zero evidence to say so.
I have a revolutionary idea: How about, instead of just saying your country is the greatest in the world, make patriotism into *wanting* to make your country the greatest? Like genuinely making an effort to better society and have sportsmanlike competitiveness like “We’re not the best in the world... yet.”
Let that be the new patriotism. Because right now we’re all sounding like a “yes man” fake friend to our countries. And nobody wants fake friends, not even America.
