| 9 … | +It seems really quite odd to promote patriotism. | ||
| 10 … | + | ||
| 11 … | +Patriotism is the belief that you should like your country because it's yours, | ||
| 12 … | +rather than because it's actually any good. | ||
| 13 … | + | ||
| 14 … | +If you believe your country really is good, | ||
| 15 … | +then you don't need to promote patriotism, | ||
| 16 … | +because everyone will like your country anyway — because it's good. | ||
| 17 … | + | ||
| 18 … | +So proud patriots who insist that everyone should be a patriot, | ||
| 19 … | +and if you're not a patriot, well that's *just not patriotic*: | ||
| 20 … | +I guess those people actually think their country is… rubbish? | ||
| 21 … | + | ||
| 22 … | +So why do they want everyone to love their rubbish country? | ||
