I mean, patriotism is inherently a fallacy of illusory superiority used by countries to brainwash their citizens into, frankly, accepting less than they deserve. That and it's a pretty smooth entrance in a pipeline toward nationalism and xenophobia

The far-right brand of patriotism espoused by MAGA is, yeah, but there's a patriotism that says that, out of love for my country I have to fight for the lives, rights and wellbeing of everyone in it.
