So true. If you don't mind me repeating myself I would say I agree that nationalism, with it's very recent history (200 years) tied into militarism primarily, highlights a lower side of our nature. On earth there were never hard borders like today. It was imperialist Europeans who orchestrated such concepts and the rest of the world had to follow suite not to be destroyed....As i said before, nationalism is of the devil. Sadly in a world where the elite play both sides, those who think there's something unique about their skin color have already taken the bait. What are traditions when you have 100 years tops? This life was never meant to be permanent. Always try to make the choice that would please the Creator.
Perhaps we are coming at this from different angles. But the old adage is true, United we stand and divided we fall.
But... and this is a huge factor: Nationalism is currently our best strategy against the type of globalism/internationalism being promoted by the WEF, IMF, UN, and every other elitist organization pining for global governance. As repulsive as it is the Trump, Orban, Bolsanaro image of fascism is slightly better than the schemes of the Rothschild banking, Davos-crowd, supranationalist techno-autocrats who openly state they plan to seize control over the world's resources, energy, food production, supply chains, etc.
The pandemic response was a litmus test to who stands where; it's tragic but I now have to vote Republican if possible in defense of my state/national constitution. The Democrats and liberals have shown they're not just godless, they are willing tools for the highest crimes of international tyranny.
