We aren't discussing
your definition of patriotism, or the common dictionary definiton - because most people dont align with the dictionary meaning of it.
The whole point of this topic is to discuss single minded, chauvanist, nationalist fervorous patriotism - which completely aligns with saying such as "my country is the best thisandthat".
