Script:
Britain votes to leave the European Union. The United States elects a president who says he’ll put “America First.”
Around the world, nationalism is winning elections. Many see this nationalist revival as the great danger of our time, fearing that nationalism will take us back to a more primitive and racist past.
But it wasn’t long ago that great political figures such as Woodrow Wilson and Teddy Roosevelt, David Ben-Gurion and Mahatma Gandhi, Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher recognized what I call the virtue of nationalism.
So, what is this virtue?
A nationalist believes that the world is governed best when nations are free to chart their own independent course, cultivating their traditions and pursuing their interests without interference. Nationalism is not about racism. All nations are internally diverse. And it isn’t about isolationism.
Of course, nations can a pursue a variety of different policies in diplomacy and trade. Nationalism is the opposite of imperialism-or globalism or transnationalism-which are all names for the attempt to bring peace and prosperity to the world by uniting mankind under a single political authority.
The debate between nationalists and globalists, then, is over whether we should aspire to a world of many independent nations-or to be one unified super-state, like the enlightened “Federation” of the Star Trek movies. A case can be made for both sides of the argument. But for the last 30 years-really, since the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and the end of the Soviet Union-the “one world“ side has been dominant.
Today, this is changing. Maybe not among elites, but among ordinary citizens-or, as they are known in America, “the deplorables.” It turns out that a lot of people still think good borders make good neighbors.
It’s hardly surprising that people want to preserve the way of life they and their ancestors built up over centuries, the way of life they believe is best. It’s human nature. Our strongest loyalties are to those who are closest to us: to our family; then the larger community or “tribe”, and finally, to the nation.

PragerU: “Nationalism is about a country charting its own course without international intervention”
Also PragerU: “We must intervene in the Middle East to protect israel and fix the middle eastern nations ourselves. It is our duty to be the world police”
I think Prager is a Jew so of course he wants to protect Israel. Also, the Christians go along with it because they believe when a new Temple is built in Jerusalem (I think, it's been a while) that the Apocalypse will start.
To be fair, Prager U has also hosted pro-gay rights/marriage despite the fact Dennis Prager is against these things. I think he perfers a broad coalition of Conservative voices to a single narrative he himself constructs
But american christians hope for american christian centered imperialism across the globe. It is ingrained in their apocalyptic religion.

Well, fascism goes back to Mussolini (Italy), but nevermind.
The issue is, that it's usually not that easy (and a matter of personal opinions) to draw commonly accepted lines between these gradations of nationalism.
Prager U is nothing but a far right propaganda network, trying to redefine terms to make them fit their agenda. That's nothing, other extreme ideologists (left, right, religious or whatever) wouldn't do. But they are lying to drag as many ppl. as possible on their side of the political spectrum. So they're basically scum.

Communism is great, Capitalism is evil, it has absolutely nothing to do.
Compare the ideologies and you will realize that nazism and fascism, as terrible as they are, belong in reality to the far-left collection of bad ideas, together with comunism. They all derive from the worst of the marxist worldviews.
People don't realize that, because lefty historians sold us a lie at the university campuses that the Left controls.

At face value, yes PragerU said both statements which would make them nonsensical, but you have to look at what both of those videos were saying. The first one, Be a nationalist, pretty self explanatory, and I agree with the statement. But giving money to Israel has a lot of benefits for the US. It's obvious you watched the video so you should know what they are.
Nicholas S Giving money to Israel also has a lot of drawbacks, contributing to the the deaths of innocent civilians and supporting an authoritarian regime one among many.
@@bigkroner766 So we should stop sending money to Israel? Also I'll like some proof of what you said to be true.
@@PedroTomé1 True, but we're not just giving money to Israel, we're getting a strategic position in the middle east against our enemies along with numerous benefits, such as we collaborate in research and development.

Wasn't that some other guy who said that?
@Terminator 7250 That just isn't true. The US was forced to give up its protectorate in the Philippines when Japan invaded in 1941. The US did not willingly leave because the Filipinos had the ability to self-determination. In fact, the US killed thousands of Filipinos who fought for independence against the US occupation in the Filipino-US war that lasted for 3 whole years. For the early part of the 20th century, the US was a colonial power. Cuba is another example. The US only lost influence with the ousting of Batista.

@@chasem1032 Democratic People's republic of Korea is democratic and a republic, right?
Just because something is in the name doesn't make it Socialist. Hitler literally abolished unions and privatized large sectors of the German economy.
@@Sana_a04 Hitler actually was a socialist. Everyone who wanted to succeed in Nazi Germany had to be a party member, otherwise, you were disowned or worse. Furthermore, he introduced many social reforms and tried to fight poverty with state-funded projects, like the Autobahn. That's why Germany's economy was in shambles before WWII; Hitler planned to pay back his horrific debt through war, which, obviously, didn't work out so well.
L the MC it’s important to understand what the word socialist means. A simple google search will tell you that a socialist is someone who advocates for social ownership (worker control) of the economy. Now why did Hitler have socialist in his party name? It’s simple. Capitalism was becoming unpopular due to the Great Depression, so for Hitler to get more votes, he’d make voters think he was left wing on economics. He wasn’t, he privatized Germany’s economy and banned trade unions.
The Crusader uh you pretty clearly just ignored my definition of socialism. Authoritarian socialism, aka Marxist Leninism, encourages state ownership of the means of production, but the state shall be owned by the proletariat? Did Nazi German have this? No. The Nazis were economically centrist, Because they took ideas from authoritarian economists, that the shall guide the capitalists. Center left ideas were they’re support for certain social programs. Center Right ideas were maintaining the existence of capitalism and fighting socialism and communism. In reality, communism and Nazism have almost nothing in common. Communism supports full egalitarianism after socialism is established, Nazism supports full hierarchy. Also there’s no such thing as a different type of socialism, other than the classic definition I have before and the Marxist Leninist one, which Hitler fits neither.

There is no “stealing” of resources here you idiot. When America fought against Vietnam it wasn’t because of some oil or some other crap. It’s because they held a dangerous ideology which threatened both us and the ideals for which we stand for... which unsurprisingly was true.

@@filldokic4373 If we’re going to obsess over semantics like this I’ll put forward that what you really mean In place of the term nationalism is patriotism. Nationalism is praising a country over all others and over emphasising its perceived superiority which makes it an ideology hostile to other countries by its nature. Patriotism is less harmful in that it’s the term that describes just appreciating the nation you identify with, without directly implying a disregard for other nations.

@@justsomeguy8849
Anarchism is a broad spectrum of different ideologies that separated from other marxists a long time ago (I believe that they were even excluded from the second international, not sure tho). Most anarchist are anti-statist, meaning that they percieve the very existence of a state as a form of agression, whereas you guys promote a system that is either proletarian democracy or a dictatorship of the proletariat, simply an authoritarian big government which can transform the society and the econonmy into a socialist one.
You can't prove that the USSR was a democracy, 'cause it simply was not, it's leaders were not elected b ythe people, yet wielded absolute power.
The very concept of a nation state is nationalistic, many of such states are democratic and indeed more prosperous and stable, than countries that are not nation states, one can still uphold democratic values and pluralism while wanting the best for his country and people.
@@user-eu6zm5yr2l they can be? I'm not saying nationalism is inaptly authoritarian, but it can be said. Hitler is one example of many lol.
@@user-eu6zm5yr2l
lol you are wrong
Real socialism , those born in western Europe (France, Great Britain, Germany, etc... ) are not authoritarians. Their purpose was to free workers from the oppression from the bourgeoisie and capitalists.
In fact the common definition of socialism by most of this historic thinkers is : democratic politic power, and democratic economic power. Meaning that every individual has the same level of power, and their freedom of choice is not limited to a social status or wealth.
Proletarian democracy is democracy this is not an authoritarian system, this is the answer to the authoritarian bourgeois "democracy" where only rich peoples could vote.
Dictatorship of proletariat is not a dictatorship with a strong leader, but a term used by Marx with reference from antiquity ,meaning a transitional phase.
But because you are ignorant you don't realize that what was proposed by Marx was more democratic than the capitalists societies had to offers at his time, in reality just oligarchies, an oligarchic politic system for an oligarchic economic system.
Proletarian democracy, is not about a big government.... Giving that socialism is based on democracy, this is not authoritarian, unlike defending their self interest and exercising unilateral power over workers. Authoritarians systems are based on vertical relation, socialism is based on horizontal relation.
There can have freedom only in horizontal system.
On the other hand nationalism movements are always authoritarians because nationalism is based on the psychological trait called Right wing authoritarian (RWA) , that is not found among common progressive left peoples. RWA is related to submission to a strong leader, and to the group, and rejection of out group ( Jews are the typical out group for any nationalism because they had no nation in the past ), it is the perfect reflect of nationalist ideologies. Nationalism define a vertical link between the person and the nation.
May be you are confusion nationalism with the left wing view on nation : patriotism.
Else all what you say is wrong, just ignorance from just copy from many propaganda, including false socialism/communism like stalinism, etc...
I think you're confusing nationalism with patriotism bruh
nationalism

identification with one's own nation and support for its interests, especially to the exclusion or detriment of the interests of other nations.

Your confusing nationalism with military service
And confusing it with patriotism
Patriotism and nationalism both are based on pride for your country. Nationalism was good for unifying Germany and Italy in the mid to late 19th century.
@Huon Sainsbury Not at all. Patriotism is devotion, loyalty, and defense for one's country. Nationalism is a belief in policy that asserts one's national self-determination and independence. If patriotism is an act, Nationalism is the policy that guides that act. In fact, the United State's reluctance to enter World War 2 was in part due to our nationalist sentiment. In the same way, the last administration avoided extending conflict in the middle east and chose to scale back American reliance on foreign energy, goods, and services. A lack of nationalism oftentimes leads to failed states, but so too does an excess of it. Iraq, North Korea, and most french colonial countries in Africa being prime examples. Nationalism is not inherently good or bad. American Nationalism is not in the same universe of Jingoism or Isolationism, either. But, I assume all of you have never critically studied this. You all seem to think "Nationalism Bad" is a universally accepted idea. You lose all credibility when you say that because Nationalism being good or bad is not even the premise of the argument. WHEN is nationalism good or bad is where you should be looking for answers.

Island. Anti-imperialism basically demands that if one has the means with which to defeat an imperialistic force without severely weakening themselves. Saying that Woodrow Wilson's decision to intervene in World War I was somehow imperialistic is just inaccurate on multiple fronts, including the one of them that was just about at France's border.
Internationalism and imperialism aren't the same thing. Imperialists want to expand their nation by force, internationalists want voluntary cooperation between nations.
you are close but not quite, the main difference is that Internationalism whants to create a world were cultural and national differences are no longer an impediment in international relations while imperialism whants to impose one nation’s way of living in the entire world.

Rick O'Shay India was occupied by British *colonizers* so Indian nationalism at the time made perfect sense but most people don't know shit about Gandhi political views, he's mostly known for using civil disobedience to fight oppression. Prager is saying one one hand the British Empire was great and a net positive for the world and "freedom" 😂(these people are insane) on the other hand they're praising Gandhis nationalism which was a direct response to the British Empire and colonialism which Prager claims was so great. You can't praise both colonialism and nationalism, gotta pick a side, but we know what they mean, they like colonialism for non white "savages" but nationalism for white people.
That isn't a very nice example of it for sure. The British enforced an oppressive, racist, colonial regime in India. Gandhi opposed it via civil disobedience and non-cooperation movement. That was then, when Indians were being mistreated by the British. The situation now is very different.
Rick O'Shay I guess we can praise Bin Laden for strengthening the patriotic fiber of America? 9/11, a "blessing in disguise"?

You do realise you've changed the definition of nationalism right? The definition requires for the exclusion or detriment of other countries.
Oh you mean like every country on Earth.
That's utterly false. Americans have been nationalists since at least 1776, but they've also been isolationists for much of that time. Many Europeans were extremely upset with the U.S., for being so reluctant to join the fight during both World Wars. Isolationism as the U.S.'s default position only changed after WWII, when the U.S. was the only western country which could deliver on the principal foreign policy objective of the entire western world: the stemming of Soviet expansionism.
Exclusion? Sure. Idk about detriment.
Exclusion maybe, but no where is something detrimental to another nation required for nationalism.

@Joshua Guertler Jingoism is more a form of nationalism, rather than an entire separate thing altogether.

Orwell wrote in his essay, "Notes On Nationalism" that the word "nationalism" has different meanings depending on who's using it. That's why at the beginning of his essay, he defines his meaning as follows: "By ‘nationalism’ I mean first of all the habit of assuming that human beings can be classified like insects and that whole blocks of millions or tens of millions of people can be confidently labelled ‘good’ or ‘bad’. But secondly - and this is much more important - I mean the habit of identifying oneself with a single nation or other unit, placing it beyond good and evil and recognising no other duty than that of advancing its interests. Nationalism is not to be confused with patriotism." - George Orwell (Notes on Nationalism, 1945)

@@guitarsANDcars39 ... what?
Growing up an American, I hated it at first, because I'm of African descent. I mean, all that happened to my ancestors just made me dislike my own country. Now older and more wiser, I understand the greatest sacrifice my ancestors made. Many American landmarks were erected by slaves. And even after slavery ended, many of them still loved this country, and wanted to make it better. They pressured for better rights, and quality of life. Some great African Americans like, Dr. Martin Luther King, made a great sacrifice for this country. We blacks must understand this, instead of just blaming White people for everything and victim shaming.
White people today are innocent. They are not responsible for the actions of their ancestors. The same way black people are not responsible for the actions of theirs. It's up to us, the current generation to move forward come to an agreement. We must put aside our hatred of one another, because if we do not, it will ultimately divide this country further. So people, lets definitely try and make America great again!
God bless this country~
many, many GREAT Americans of African descent have done their part to make the USA a great nation -- from Frederick Douglass to Thomas Sowell and too many more to list. well said and God bless you LayeredOnions.
❤❤❤
LayeredOnions
That's something that always struck me about MLKJ's speech. He didn't say "Only after the White man has paid us back in full for the pain and suffering of our ancestors shall there be peace," he said "I have a dream that one day [...] the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood. [...] And when this happens [...] _all_ of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual: Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"
I have a serious question to ask not just blacks, but any person who has been shamed into thinking they owe blacks something because of your skin color: do you believe that if Martin Luther King Jr. were alive today he would be applauding your actions?
I don’t think what your ancestors were forced into counts as a great “sacrifice”. They didn’t have a choice. If somebody commits a crime and is killed by the state via lethal injection, we wouldn’t say that person made a sacrifice in the name of justice. If I was walking along a sidewalk and somebody pushed me off of it in order to make more room for them, we wouldn’t say I made a sacrifice.
As to the sentence “White people today are innocent”. Innocent of what? Most white people today never owned slaves, but most are still complicit to or actively a part of a system that discriminates against people of color. I do not think anybody is responsible for the actions of their ancestors, but we also don’t live in a post-racial or post-racist society.
A serious investigation into history will show that most of what was done in American History that has been blamed on America, on the south and on whites has honestly been done through the wrong side of history efforts of the Democrat Party and they continue their wrong side of history, advancing socialism, government dependency and blocking absolute border security. It was not America that defended slavery. It was not the south either. It was not the whites.
It was the Democrat Party, formed by pro slavery politicians just a few decades after our constitution was ratified.
The Northern Democrats supported slavery but would not support any secession of the south. The Southern Democrats supported slavery and were willing to secede and to fight a war to defend it.
There were no Republicans in the South at the time of the Civil War and no Republican owned slaves.
The Republican party was actually formed to unite anti slavery politicians and citizens. Republicans and others opposed the Democrat Party on their slavery, on their Jim Crowe Laws, on their Segregation and on their white hooded lynching of about 5000 black and about 1400 white Americans ( and all of those lynching victims were members of or supporters of the Republican Party). Some were shot instead of lynched.
It is also the Democrat Party policies that gave us the Trail of Tears and the Japanese internment camps & property confiscation.
The Democrat Party was formed about 35 years before the Republican Party was, but the Democrat Party always had strong opposition from other Americans (black, white and of other various ancestry). Even in the 1960s, the Civil Rights bills that the Democrat Party and LBJ get credit for were largely opposed by and filibustered by Democrats in Congress.
The Republican minority in Congress heavily influenced the passing of those civil rights bills. Just a few years earlier, Republican President Eisenhower advanced some civil rights bills, but they were blocked and watered down by the Democrat Senate Majority leader. Who was that Senate Majority Leader? It was future president LBJ!
Thomas Jefferson knew exactly what he was writing when he penned the words "all men are created equal" and many Americans have been committed to that reality since those times. It was NEVER ALL of America or ALL whites who opposed true equality in liberty and opportunity.
Jefferson also denounced England's introduction of slavery into the colonies and he wrote that into the Declaration of Independence, but it was voted out by Georgia and South Carolina at the time. It was during Jefferson's presidency that Congress was able to ban the importation of slaves into the US and Jefferson as president signed that legislation. That's right. Founding era Congress and Thomas Jefferson were making incremental efforts to dismantle slavery. George Washington, Ben Franklin and many other founders also made efforts for this cause. The Democrat Party changed that course. They don't teach us that in schools. They only teach us that Jefferson fathered Sally Hemming's children when in truth, only ONE of the children's heritage links to the Jefferson line and evidence pretty strongly suggests that it was his considerably younger brother Randy who fathered that child.
.. and YES! Great American Patriots like Frederick Douglass, George Washington Carver, Wentworth Churchill (a MA judge and member of the Sons of Liberty who reportedly also rode to warn a part of the community that "The British are coming"), Dr King, Peter Salem ( a hero at Bunker Hill), Hiram Rhodes Revels, Joseph Hayne Rainey and Madam CJ Walker forged the path "all men are created equal" envisioned and many carry that torch today with Allen West being a very great example of a true American Patriot in modern times.

Civic nationalism isn’t really nationalism. It’s a kind of cosmopolitanism that tries to use a commonality of polity (i.e., which legal jurisdiction you inhabit) as a faux basis of a fictional nationalism. Real nationalism is always race-based because in natural terms your race is your nation. Your country and your nation are two different things: A country is a legally defined thing (it’s artificial) whereas your nation is a biologically defined thing (it’s natural). Yes, that’s correct: Even the word nation shares the same root word (nate) with nativity and native and natal, and all of them refer to the birth of children.
Henry VIII was pretty evil. From his wives to the destruction of the monasteries and splitting the goods with his buddies (who sapped royal power until the king became a mere figurehead), to say nothing of the tortures and executions under and ordered by him. Holding him up as an icon of nationalism is definitely problematic.

I believe that what you are describing is the definition of "patriotism". You should love your nation but not at the expense of other nations. That is because then you become a nationalist. It is vital that we retain the meanings of these two words without mixing them up. That is because in the future we might not be able to tell apart nationalism from patriotism which would be of use to very evil agendas. Control the language and you can control one's thoughts.
Both those words mean essentially the same thing and they’re both terrible ways of looking at humanity. Nations are nothing more than political constructs and have no “right to exist.”

@@angelotheboxer4871 see that’s the problem with nationalism, what happens when those interests are harmful to others…1940s showed us
Nah this is the original definition of nationalism. Patriotism comes from the Greek word “Patris” meaning “fatherland” and means a devotion to one’s country. Nationalism means someone to be devoted to his own people, the nation. Things that happened in the 1940s should not change the meanings of these values.
@@aka_056 A VERY good point (though "patris", I believe, is Genitive for "pater" in Latin, but yes, the origin is in Greek "pateras"). Usually, "patriotism" and "nationalism" are synonyms, as most European countries are nation-states. HOWEVER, there's the case of multi-nation states and, especially, empires and empire-like states (such as the USSR or current Russia - or the wannabe empires, such as the EU). For instance, in the USSR, "patriotism" (being a proud citizen of the Soviet Union, irrespective of your nationhood) was highly encouraged, while "nationalism" (wanting your nation to have an independent state and running it as it sees fit) granted a ticket to Siberia (in case you avoided being shot outright, that is). In case of Russia, you can see how they reacted to nationalism in Ukraine. In the West, some "comrades" are VERY keen on eradicating the notion of "nationalism" and replacing it with "patriotism" (e.g., being a "patriot" of the EU and crushing the evil nationalists who don't want a supranational entity to run their country) - and they are VERY correct in saying "Control the language and you can control one's thoughts", because this is exactly what they are trying to do.

@@kd35beast24 Hitler wanted Germany to be bigger. Stronger. Such love for country.... isn't that far nationalism?
I define nationalism as ideology focused on ones own nation unity and power, comparing nations to living organisms, fighting over limited resources and getting stronger often at cost of another nation/organism. Popular before both World Wars, also a cause of these conflicts.
How do you define it?
Plain, peaceful love for ones country, a will to contribute to it - I call this patriotism.
Anonim 54 Hitler didn’t love ,,his“ country, he loved the power he had over it. That’s why he tried to destroy Germany in the final stages of war (Verbrannte-Erde) instead of trying to make peace.
Marwin Limmer Hitler was a Nationalist, and he didn’t love his country so much as the idea of what he wanted it to be.
The ideology of Nazism was at the core of hitlers thinking. This wasn’t a politic party it was revolutionary movement, you can compare it to the Bolshevik movement which sought to destroy everything from the past and create their own perfect vision of the future. Hitler was devoted to the movement not his people, for him, everyone was an organism part of the movement. Break out of line and die.
When Hitler gave the order to destroy Germany, he did so because the insane ideology of Nazism convinced him that Germany had failed the movement and needed to be destroyed.
Hanna Arendt talks about it in “Origins of totalitarianism”
Good read.
There are difference between nationalism and patriotism. But there are many types of nationalism (for example, in Brazil, nationalism is basically patriotism). Still it is important to differentiate nationalism and patriotism
The idea of nations, a group of people that speak the same language and come from the same tribe, started to be popular in the 19th&20th century, because of urbanization. People were feeling rooted out and lonely, so they wanted to believe they belonged to some nation. Before then, the only thing that mattered was who ruled in the land you lived. When you moved, ot changed.
Nationalism does not just mean that a country wishes to keep its ideals focused and centered within its borders. It also implies that that nation’s values are inherently superior to another’s. This motivates people to spread these beliefs past their borders and violate the definition of Nationalism that was outlined in this video. That is a key characteristic of imperialistic nationalism. The two aren’t opposites, they have overlapping goals.
Spoken just as a compulsive liar lying about the inherently Politically Centrist and MUTUALLY respective nature of TRUE Nationalism, which is NOT Fascism despite the claims of some, would say. TRUE Nationalism is best defined by the term/saying of "Live and let live.".
Jack. Again, you're confusing Fascism with ACTUAL Nationalism. True nationalism is NOT a political ideology of domination, but one of coexistence. The best analogy would to be think of nations as individual households inside of a neighborhood, where the boundaries between the property of one household and the next household are clearly defined, and all households respecting the fact that every plot of land belongs to the residents of its household. Moving past said analogy, and in regards to immigrant demographics, both Far-Left Marxists and Far-Right Fascists tend to misconstrue what "cultural assimilation" actually entails, as they both tend to misrepresent it as the immigrants giving up their original culture entirely and replacing it solely with that of the host country. In actuality, cultural as simulation can best be described by the use of another analogy: Let's say that somebody is making a recipe that involves different ingredients being mixed together in a giant blob of sorts before being actually cooked, and for the sake of the analogy every ingredient representing a different culture, the ingredients that take up the plurality of the mass of coarse representing the host culture in its original form. One culture would be represented by salt, another one by graniluated sugar, and still more by cinnamon, paprika, coconut shavings, lemon juice, nutmeg, rosemerry, vanilla extract, saffron, cumin, cocoa powder, tomato sauce, cooking wine, alcoholic horse milk, M&Ms, pistachios, and etcetera. Once every one of these ingredients are mixed together into one continuous mass, said mass will still nevertheless be greatly effected by every single one of the ingredients that were used to make it throughout its entirety. The nations of today, ALL of them, had their respective ethnic origins come about from this process. England originated from a mixture of Celtic, Roman, Germanic, Normadian, and Norse cultures, a syntheses of them. The American South's cuisine is almost as much Native American as it is European, while its accent is as much West African, mostly Nigerian, as it is European. Tibetan Buddhism is heavily influenced by Bonism, the native religion of Tibet, while Japanese Buddhism has been syncresticized with Shintoism enough where it can usually be considered to be both religions simultaneously. Etcetera, etcetera, and etcetera. However, many of the immigrants today come from an ULTRAnationalistic background, which despite its name, is about as much actual Nationalism as a jellyfish is an actual fish. The majority of these Fascist, these racially and culturally imperialistic, immigrants are the Islamofascists, adherents of cult denominations of a religion that is in its base form not a cult, much like how The Westborou Baptist Church is a cultish denomination of Christianity, the latter of which is also an overall legitimate religion. Like any fascists, the Islamifascists wish to enslave and/or slaughter anybody and everybody who apposes them by being on the side of freedom, unlike them. Also not helping is that the slow-suicidal tendencies of the Marxist baizou "white left" is even encouraging Fascist violence to be committed against Europeans and European Americans by various other groups via selective disinformation. Stop falling for both the Marxist lies and the Fascist lies of what ACTUAL Nationalism is.
" It also implies that that nation’s values are inherently superior to another’s. "
NO, it DOESN'T. One can be a nationalist WITHOUT thinking oneself superior to anyone else. For example, a person in Britain can be a nationalist (desiring that the UK rule itself domestically, and embracing his own culture, history, and heritage) without thinking himself or his culture superior to that in, say, the United States.
But here's something for you: some cultures ARE superior to others. That's right, I said it. And I meant it. The culture of the United States, for example, IS superior to that found in much of the Middle East, many places in Africa, parts of Asia and South America. Why? It comes down to the way we view and treat people. Without claiming that we're perfect, one only has to look at how we view the worth of the individual, and what we allow to be done to the individual. Even if you don't believe in gay rights, for example, VERY few of us would attack or throw a gay person off a roof. And even for those few people who ARE the kind of scum who would do something like that, our society in general will NOT tolerate assault and murder. But there are LOTS of places in the world where such things would not only be tolerated, they are encouraged. So, SOME cultures ARE superior to others, because some cultures are more GOOD than others (without being perfect).
@@kimbara3525 OK. First, you made an erroneous assumption. You said that I "would have no problem getting replaced". *I* am not getting replaced. I'm NOT white, I'm black. So you reveal something about yourself with your prejudicial assumption. (Don't feel bad; I find that same thing online repeatedly. You express pro-American, pro-Western sympathies, and people automatically assume you must be a white male, angry about being "replaced". Shows how deeply leftist propaganda has penetrated the modern American mind) Second, I DO have a MAJOR problem with people coming here, when they come ILLEGALLY. This reveals more leftist propaganda. They paint anyone who opposes open borders and unrestricted, idiotic immigration policies as anti-immigrant/immigration. NOT TRUE. AT ALL. We oppose LAWLESSNESS. We oppose people, whether citizens or not, breaking the law with impunity and not only not being punished for it, but being rewarded. People want to come to America because of our stable, prosperous society. Well, we only have that society because of the Rule of Law. If we do not respect our laws, and do not require those who come here to respect them, the Rule of Law goes away, and so does our civilization. Furthermore, the CITIZENS of THIS country get to decide who comes here and who doesn't, NOT people from other countries. Immigration isn't for the benefit of people in other countries, it's for OUR benefit. It is NOT to our benefit to allow criminals, rapists, and terrorists into this country, even if the country they're coming from is a war-torn Hell hole. I frankly don't give a crap about their country. If it's so horrible, they should stay home and fix it, rather than bring their problems here. So, I despise ANYONE who is in favor of open borders and unrestricted illegal invasion (or even unrestricted legal immigration), because I love my family, my country, and my culture, and I don't want it changed or altered by people who have NO idea why it's great, and don't appreciate it. And, for the record, those people would include "useful idiot" citizens, too.
One needn't think one's own nation superior to ALL other nations to be a nationalist. One must merely understand and be comfortable with one's own nation and culture, and desire that it not be altered by outsiders. Nationalism is simply a desire to prevent one's home from being invaded, altered, and controlled by people, inside the nation or out, who don't know or respect the nation. It's also a desire to mind one's own business and not run around interfering across borders unless absolutely necessary. Anyone who opposes that (ESPECIALLY globalist leftists) is simply an idiot who doesn't understand the US or human nature (even if they were born here).
@@kimbara3525 Nothing you said made any sense. I don't know if it's the inarticulate phrasing or what, but it sounded like a bunch of gibberish from "Of course a black person would encourage civ nationalism..." on. And there is no "of course" about it. In my experience, most black people don't even think about this stuff on a regular basis, if at all, and of those who do, most tend to be idiot leftists. I'm a rare exception to that rule.
There's so many different types of nationalism: Civic nationalism, Ethnic nationalism, Economic nationalism, Religious nationalism, Left-wing nationalism, Racial nationalism, etc.
Left wing Nationalism?
Left-wing nationalism seems contradictory in nature when taken at face value and because of that, can be a bit difficult to explain. In my experience, it denotes a region or group of people that strongly identify with a unified culture along political and social lines, but are very inclusive in who they bring under their umbrella and wager all concerns as part of the whole. This is often a characteristic of independence movements and frequently have ties with Marxist schools of thought. A great example of this is the Basque Nationalist movement calling for its independence from Spain. Having lived there as a foreigner, I can attest to the incredibly inclusive nature of the basque people no matter who you are and will accept you as part of their culture. There was the idea that I am my person, but I'm now also Basque.
@@bettercallsaal More cases of left-wing nationalism, Sinn Fein (the party historically tied to the Irish Republican Army) and the Scottish National Party. Both can't stand Britain, especially after Brexit.
To be clear, I was not defending left-wing nationalism. I personally believe that all nationalism is destructive to a globally interconnected world and that a person should do their best to distance themselves from their personal nationalistic feelings, or at the very least acknowledge them. Read George Orwell’s statements on nationalism if you want to understand why this is. I was just pointing out that Left-wing nationalism tends to be more of a benign sort in idea. There is not really a sense of superiority of one person over another as seen with most other variants. Obviously it still has its toxicity being that it likely spawns terroristic groups such as the IRA, ETA, and the Sons of Liberty, but the overall goal is independence, not supremacy.
@@bettercallsaal
When the "interconnected world" by the globalists is destroying the nation's culture and heritage across the world, don't be surprised if at one point the natives get fed up FFS. You're seeing the founding stock of every nation hit by mass migration becoming more and more nationalistic, you cant expect to walk over your own people over the needs of big corporations and foreigners, and then put the blame on natives when they get angry.
If you want an interconnected world only for trade, that's fine tho
One note to correct: the Federation of StarTrek is a federation of nations, not a superstate. Remember there are russians, japaneses and many other nation citizens in the series? The movie that shows a superstate is The Hunger Games.
Great reply!
Thanks.
Nationalism and racism has common thing to share:
They both see others under themselves
So be it, i want my nation to keep existing.
I think that we have really different definitions of "nationalism".
As far as I know, nationalism considers that nations are like organisms, competing and fighting each other. This means one should support his own nation, want it to survive and be strong, at cost of other nations, because "if we don't beat them, they will beat us". Then we go straight to Nazism and Imperialism. Empire is basicly a strong nation, that dominates others - like an animal on the top of food chain.
If one wants his nation to prosper, but not at cost of others, then it's patriotism.
(Please forgive me any errors in the text, English is my second language).
Your confusing Fascism with Nationalism.
@@drdeadred851 Nationalism is an integral part of fascism. In my opinion, fascism can simply evolve from nationalism. Just like communism or socialdemocracy can evolve from socialism, or anarchism from libertarianism.
@@The2ndUsername Well, at least 55% of EU members, that also represent at least 65% of EU population must agree to let a law pass.
What do you mean by "EU wants"? Who exactly?
Opposing EU is eurosceptism, and it doesn't mean nationalism - although both often go together. However, an eurosceptic may just be a rusophile, and a nationalist may just want to exploit EU to subordinate other countries (I think EU isn't really exploited like that though).
EU is nowhere as authoritarian as states considered "nationalist' (USSR, Franco's Spain, Mussolini's Italy, Nazi Germany, or junta-controlled Argentina).
Oh, and for opposing globalism, there is another term, antiglobalism, (and, to some extent, alterglobalism) - it's something that also several left-wing organisations want, and openly claim. If you call them nationalists - they will deny. They may *not* want the nation to stay integrated, in the name of freedom.
@Jake L I think borders should exist, as long as various cultures and languages exist. Usually, it's not about being better, it's about differences in culture and mentality, different laws, varying economic systems...
For example, in Sweden, the norms of 'bad parenting" are much higher, and it's much "easier" for parents to have their children take away, than in Poland. My countrymates consider Swedish norms as far too strict, and anti-parent but the norms are adapted to Swedish culture, not Polish. And probably Swedes see it the other way - that the Polish State is caring about children too little.
However, both countries are in EU and Schengen Zone, and the transit between countries is fast and easy.
Ah, and, just in case, the borders may serve to contain certain threats (by getting closed), like criminals or epidemies.
Its the opposite of globalism. It means that we put our nation first. That we protect what we have created. Or would you rather share everything we have with people who are starving because they are corrupt and lazy like Africa and the Middle East?
"Nationalism is not to be confused with patriotism. Both words are normally used in so vague a way that any definition is liable to be challenged, but one must draw a distinction between them, since two different and even opposing ideas are involved. By ‘patriotism’ I mean devotion to a particular place and a particular way of life, which one believes to be the best in the world but has no wish to force on other people. Patriotism is of its nature defensive, both militarily and culturally. Nationalism, on the other hand, is inseparable from the desire for power. The abiding purpose of every nationalist is to secure more power and more prestige, not for himself but for the nation or other unit in which he has chosen to sink his own individuality.

Fatal Oath I’m pretty sure he is referencing the “Nation-State dichotomy” when quoting nationalism. Which both not so subtly share the name “Nationalism” Not the pre-conceived notion of nationalism that you think of with the past century. The nation-state view acknowledges that we should view the world as distinct nations with clear cultural and federal boundaries. This is why is why his definition of nationalism is anti imperialist(this in the belief that all people’s have the right to govern themselves in nations). And why it’s the opposite of globalism is because a globalist view discourages the nation state view. For example: during World War 1, communists and socialists under a Marxist philosophy readily apposed the war seeing it as just the rich mans war, while also acknowledging that the working class was not connected by nation but instead by class. But If nationalism and the nationstate view are so different why would nationalism be used to describe both. Easy, the people who at universities that coined nationalism for the nations state view were also greatly apposed to the idea of it, and through branding it nationalism you have the repulsion to it you have today.
You mean 92% is too high for your standards??
Yeah, but they arose from a mix of people and still have them. "European", for instance, is not a race, and encompasses many different ethnic groups.
A nation is not limited to one ethnicity, especially in Europe. European is not a ethnicity. So a nation can be and usually is diverse.

It’s a terrible idea to let a single government rule the entire humanity. Because I if such a government went wrong, we won’t know about it, because there aren’t any comparison. Even if we know it went wrong, we won’t be able to resist it, because people across the world are divided by different cultures and history, while the global government have access to all the resources across the world.
Felipe Correia Borges That depends on what kind of nationalism are we talking about. If nationalism refers to ‘our country should have a government which rules over anything’, then it’s definitely bad. If it refers to ‘the interest of people in this country must be protected’, then it’s probably not bad.
