What do globalists think about ppl rooting for athletes running under there flag? Is a person rooting for there sportsman a na zi thing to do? Them getting the national hymn and flag when on the top podium all that stuff. Wonder when all this will be targeted and banned  |

Are patriotism and nationalism different? How so? It's possible to want your nations team to win a race or win a match without being super patriotic. I once got threatened for not supporting England in a soccer match..because i'm English. In truth the other team played much better so i was happy to hear them win. |

Would say they are the same but a bit of a different angle. One residing more towards a military defense other for politics and competition with others. Dont see them as a bad thing when its not in the extreme. I dont think ppl should be intimidated or shamed into loving or supporting there country. Should be a personal choice. I would not want to be a patriot if my government happens to be the bad guy like america or russia stomping on other nations. Much easier rooting for a sports team you are from the same place with than dying for a a**hole king. Ppl used to die for the most useless things in the past. Im all for defending and preserving a nation not expansion. |

Someone once said ''In a civilised society, sports act as a substitute for war.''.

I would rather have patriotic neighbours, because it's nicer and safer to live around people with a strong sense of community. |

You don't have to be patriotic to have a strong sense of community. There's a lot of patriotic folk around here where we live. Most of them are di.keds. |

It's certainly feasible that people can be completely fked off with the country that they reside in. But that doesn't stop you supporting certain sports etc.. When it comes to athletes and the like things get complicated. Wasn't there a Russian bloke who won a gold medal with a Ukrainian finishing second,and said Russian stood there proud as fk displaying the z symbol. I think that's where the lines get blurred.

don't know anyone who self identifies as a globalist. if it's not being misused as a term it only makes sense being applied to international businessmen.
