You continue to change the subject and skip inconvenient questions. When I ask for data behind your assumptions you just don't answer. When I provide data to support my assumptions you laugh it off basing on anecdotal evidence and start another offtopic. Yet, in the end you confirmed my point:
> Nationalism is what people want
Precisely. And it's because (among other things) government is actively working to make them want it. And it's a very bad idea, which was the whole point of the original article we discuss here. So mentioning Poland was totally justified.
With that settled I'm done with this discussion. I dislike talking with people jumping on 1000 tangentially related points when they can't answer it. It's a cheap and timewasting tactic.
- dexen 8y agoI understand you don't like nationalism. Tough. Substituting its staunchly opposing ideology of internationalism doesn't help at all, from historical perspective. As for >[changing subject, skipping questions, jumping on 1000 tangents], I opened up with the very reason: "It strikes me as a narrow view taken to extreme". I then went on to show that the broad socio-political processes work well in our country. Sure, there are some kooky outcomes here and there. We will fix them in democratic way. Economics is of utmost importance; as long as voters perceive it as going well, they don't go for extremism promising a "quick & easy fix" that of course is neither.
