Nah. All the bogans come out on Aus Day, though.

Also nationalism is a good thing in moderation. Some of it is pretty weird though, the Japanese for example deny massacring many Chinese during war, and refuse to educate about it in schools, despite overwhelming photographical evidence (Nanking)

AMERRIKUH FUCK YEAHHH is not good.
m0o thats not really nationalist. I don't think you can say "the japs are too nationalist to teach about killing chinese".

As my grandpa used to say: "Everything in excess is bad."
Be racist and idiot for your country isn't a good thing. Love you contry is.
I would say nationalism is bad in all of it's forms, in any situation.
Nationalism is loving your own country to the point of hating everyone elses. If you're saying "that's nationalism in it's extreme form", then you DO NOT know the meaning of nationalism. What I described is nationalism 100%, in it's only form.

Hating other countries only slows progress to a unified Earth, which we can all agree, is where we are hoping to one day be. No countries. One nation of Earth.
Hey. Sup

No, that is not true at all.



Et Al; please Google "define: Nationalism" before posting in this thread, at the very least.

nationalism is used to make people unite together for ones country. It's obvious to see the pros and cons here.

Hitler riled up the german masses to kill (insert insanely politically incorrect joke here) , not very desirable.

Churchill used nationalism to unite the british to do what the could to stop the german army, and there allies.

it's not a matter of too much of it is bad, just how it's used.

Yeah, because it helps starting unnecessary wars in the first place. Great.

I'm also against patriotism,but at least i can undrstand it.
I really can't understand how nationalism(so the believe that your country[this mean all the humans that were born inside the same borders]should be an advantage on other countries,or anyway it should'nt never be in disvantage)can be a good thing for the humanity(while i easily can understand how it can be a good thing for your nation)
Nationalism is the word for say "egoism" when we are talking about nations.

Actually in most of the country there is a "moderate" nationalism(if wasn't moderate,in this moment there should be another world war),so it should be a good thing?That's why everything in this world it's so perfect!
