Yeah, you right. Sorry Lou, we'll have to agree to disagree. But if you'd like to continue this disagreement on another board, I'd love to. Just tell me when and where.
Or we could just duke it out in a parking lot. Your call.

I had a smartphone typo by neglecting the "ic" to "patriot", but you know.
Damn unless it's some Sagan/Kurzweil transhumanist shite, you really can't make an intelligent point without trolling.

Throw it away? It's not like it's radioactive or anything, just toss it.

Sorry bro, the "trolling" is a defense mechanism to protect my delicate ego from the ad hominem attacks like the two you just posted.
If you really had a problem with my point then counter point it, if you had a problem with my delivery then keep going.
Which was it?

Not really, since you got in this thread to caricature others in the first place.
And you would just hide behind some ridiculous strawman about anti Semitism and Merica. That shtick was played out long ago.

Correct, because being patriotic is akin to being a Nazi
Nazis were socialists as well. Funny how the same progressives who hate nationalism are embracing socialism.

so what size flag am I supposed to burn and what size can i throw away? Should i have a burial ceremony for a 2"x4" flag on a stick?
Some of you have stated it's not just a piece of cloth, its a representation of our country.
If i have an american flag on a piece of clothing, can i throw that away or should i burn it?
what did lee greenwood do with this outfit?

Darth, these two aren't inherently inclusive or exclusive. I fail to see your point.

I was pointing out that the progressives rail against patriotism because they see it as a form of "nationalism" which to them is akin to being a Nazis. But those same progressives not only ignore the fact the Nazis were socialists, they also are more and more every day openly embracing socialism.

But I don't think it was the economic policies that lead to a brainwashed population willing to commit genocide. I think that is typically attributed to the nationalist fervor.
And the socialist German economy bounced back from the depression quicker than any other European nation, so there's that.

Might want to check your history there. West Germany was not a socialist country. And as for the rebound of Germany after WWII, you can thank the Marshall Plan for that.

Germany bounced back faster due to military spending and an incredibly useful populace. Their case is not applicable to the US or 21st century economic policy.

You're absolutely right. I feel like I was on more solid ground with the anti nationalism argument than a pro socialism one.
That was pretty weak, i just wanted to be a dick to Darth.
But if you'd like to continue this argument, let's take it to political board tomorrow. I've been drinking and I try not to be serious on this board.
Date tomorrow during work hours? Hope to see you there.
