    That’s not patriotism. Being patriotic is like being honest; if someone has to stress how honest they are, they’re not.

        I show my patriotism by voting and ensuring the rights and autonomy of others is protected. That’s theoretically why nations exist. I can be proud of mine when it fulfills that promise.
