You are so right. I am half Italian and half French, and I've lived in many, many countries, and I can honestly say that "patriotism" is just an accepted and encouraged form of racism. Think about it: "French people are the BEST!", or "American people are the BEST!". Which means, of course , that anyone else is below you.
To such inexplicably patriotic people, I say:
"We are all one, we are in this together, wether you like it or not; so stop pretending you're better than me, because you're not. In fact, you're way behind me, not above or below me. Just behind me.
You see, I get it, and you don't ... Well , not yet anyway."
