As a cis-gendered, white, American-born, male I'm not allowed to be proud of anything. Not even my own accomplishments. Makes you humble. Helps you see the hypocrisy. I'm just sitting back and watching everything burn now with a smile on my face.

Exceptionalism is not allowed. You have to be treated like everyone else. That's what it means to live in a wage labor economy.

Because every country is fucking up constantly so if you are gonna take any credit for how it is, you need to blamed instead of praised and if you aren't taking any credit for the state of your country, why would you be proud?

Being a globalist has nothing to do with pride. It's just the idea that we shouldn't let national borders really effect much in the modern interconnected world.

Why is someone allowed to be a complete drain on society and give literally nothing back except topics complaining about geographic pride?

Patriotism might be described as respect for the laws, institutions, and customs of a country. Nationalism could be described as a sense of attachment to a shared history, territory, traditions and language. It's perfectly possible to be a nationalist without having a state, or to be a recently arrived immigrant who doesn't share the same roots as the majority population but who nevertheless feels they're a citizen. That's my take.

The American sense of identity has always struck me as being complex, multilayered, and fluid because of the country's settler/immigrant/slave origins. As an American, you trace your country's origin back to what is likely to be a very different past to that of your people. For instance, when you're Asian-American and your country's founding heroes are the descendants of white British settlers. If you're African-American, it's got to be even more complicated.

This. It's funny being blamed for everything while the problems are getting worse despite the fact that we're not even doing anything. Makes you think who and where the real problems are coming from, huh?
