intra european nationalism is alive and kicking. Just ask Germans what they think of "lazy" spanish, "corrupt" italians etc.. but it is moving in a better direction - also thanks to programs like the Erasmus exchange.
- rza 12y agoIs there a difference between nationalism and the fact that Italy does in fact has almost twice as high of a corruption index as Germany or that Spain has half the GDP?
- kamakazizuru 12y agothe difference is knowing a statistic and generalizing it to each and every citizen of a country. Especially the "lazy" part - that has even been proven to be completely untrue if you look at hours worked etc.
- icebraining 12y agoComparing the GDPs of two countries and assuming the difference must be due to laziness is almost the epitome of prejudice.
