What? What is wrong with that? There is absolute nothing controversial about teaching your kids to love your country.

forced patriotism is never a good sign. Of course people should love this country, but theres a lot of history of the US thats not worth loving.

Where does he say that we should force our children to love it?

Teaching them to love it is infinitely better than teaching them to hate it.

thats your opinion. Point is, kids should choose for themselves if they love this country after learning about both sides.

A lot of people arent proud of where America is right now, and thats ok too.

Society is indoctrinating kids to hate America so since you can't change society's brainwashing (media, "teachers") you can at least raise your own child to not be an insufferable entitled clown and reap the benefits of living in a country with this much freedom and opportunity.

That has nothing to do with teaching them to hate it. You can love it and because you love it, want to fix things.

And now you see the point. Pointing out what's wrong with this country, and wanting to change it, isn't an automatic leap to hating it.

I love where I live and I was never taught that. People love not because they were taught to love but because they love something. I don't love masturbation because my dad sat me down and told me how awesome it was, I enjoy it so I do it.

Masturbation is just an example, but could be anything. I was never taught to love baseball, in fact most people seem to say it's boring, I love it because I love it. When you start teaching people to love your country, you are basically at the starting point for what North Korea does. They don't love their country because they love it, they love it because they were told to love it.

Bingo. Nobody should be forced to love anything, be it America or Jesus

Now give them a reason to love something, and maybe they will. No guarantees.

It's like a patriotic version of rape. "You WILL love America, dammit! Now bend over."

talking about how the US was built on the backs of slaves and how it has systemically suppressed people of color for generation after generation isnt teaching hate. Its teaching facts.

They know, now more than ever, that the generation alive now isn't as mallable as previous ones. People want the country to change and end all this bullshit. They ain't tolerating systematic oppression and racism like they were 50 years ago, and THEY KNOW IT.

Teaching children that they should love a nebulous entity is psychotic. Hell, it's not like children get taught to love actual real things. Nobody teaches a child to love their parents and family, or their friends and pets. It comes naturally through experience (and a good dose of brain chemistry).

I really can't imagine any understanding where "teaching children to love their country" is not synonymous with brainwashing.
