>>38763299where do I give you the impression that I imply "samefaging" ? I was more like rambling about retarded demagogue in my country winning way too much for me to feel any pride in the "human rights country"
>>38763100> nice savehave you see those elsas cola bottle though ? that's an excellent self aware joke
> their culture that has been repeatedly denied to them.I can't talk for the whole 740 millions of us but I never felt that my culture has been denied to me. on the contrary, museums are free for kids and students, we have libraries and the internet. if something, I feel like some big countries that have no history are assaulted with european history.
> forced integrationthat's basically how it's defined in the french law books though, the immigrants must assimilate, which is an exchange, we get as much as we give.
> raceonce again, the term does not exist anymore since it has no meaning. all it left is its negative connotation.
>>38763445to me, the main problem of national pride is that it have to be to the expense of some other group. you can't be proud of a win without considering the opposing party loss as a good thing which is childish at best.
of course, when no one dies, like for sports events, it's all fun and it's ok but this is never the point of this kind of argument.
national pride is kind of fine on its own, the problem lies in its recuperation by extremists which under the pretense of being patriots are just narrow sighted xenophobes.
