It's a dirty word the same way socialism is. Nationalism is fomenting war, xenophobia, stripping civil liberties, nationalizing corporations, cracking down on any press, oppressing dissenters, removing the rule of law. You're thinking of "patriotism". They are absolutely not the same thing. Seriously you look like Akkula right now.

Nationalism is not a positive force. It's what drove WW1 and WW2 to such a frenzy. It's what led to the holocaust. It's what drives mob violence and totalitarianism. You really really really need to educate yourself on what "nationalism" is because right now you sound like a useful idiot. 1 Quote Remember that every argument you have with someone on MWCboard is actually the continuation of a different argument they had with someone else also on MWCboard.

You really really really really need to stop it with the kool-aid! Nationalist does not at all mean "Nationalizing industries" or "removing the rule of law" or "oppressing dissenters" Your talking about Socialism. Socialist gov't's nationalize industries, they use mob rule, they oppress dissenters - or in this case conservative speech altogether.

You really really need to look up what "nationalism" is. Again, useful idiot. You're a college kid arguing about how communism is in theory perfect.

Stealthlobo Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I've always associated Nationalism with the rise of the Nazi party. Maybe he's thinking of a different definition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
