So if not for nationalism. Why not roll over and let the other country take over you and then join their democracy? A single world government ruling over all the land?
- donkeybeer 10mo agoThey have a right to self defense like anyone else, illegal aggressors should be killed. Nationalism as in racialism. I have no problem with defining a country on principles you have agree to follow, in fact its one of the best forms of countries. I am ambivalent to apathetic to "Iran" remaining "Iranian race" or "France" remaining "French race".
- Ekaros 10mo agoHaven't defining country over "principles" been proven also as failed thing? Just look at most recent example. A illegal invasion of foreign country. Wouldn't you now agree that principles that that country is build on must be wrong and evil and world would be better off without any other country that says they rely on them?
- donkeybeer 10mo agoI will admit that the USA is a bit of a funny one. It has in some ways been nice to the people living there but its foreign policy has been very violent. I'd say again though its more of an indifferent to race reason they do all this bs in the middle east and latino countries.
- donkeybeer 10mo agoI'd gladly agree all other countries should disengage from and route around Trump America because its sliding into ethnicism and its attendant stupidities. But I see your broader point how the USA has been having foreign adventures even before trump.
- donkeybeer 10mo agoI don't have any problems living in any liberal capitalist democracy. I could be equally as happy living in say Germany as in Canada more or less. But then again, your example scenario is funny, how many times have liberal capitalistic democracies been attacking other liberal capitalistic democracies ever even happened vs wars fought over religion and nationalism since times immemorial and wars fought over fascism/nazism/communism in the WW2?
- donkeybeer 10mo agoYour example scenario is even funnier, show me one single currently ongoing conflict that involves two liberal democratic capitalist countries. Israel: religion/nationalism Russia: nationalism Yemen: nationalism/racialism etc etc
- Ekaros 10mo agoHow would you now define USA? Surely it is not anymore liberal democratic capitalist country?
- donkeybeer 10mo agoIt is sliding toward being a shithole precisely because of the rise of inferior ethnic nationalism. It had less of it relative to other countries until recently.
