    Outside the more pragmatic and conceivable city-state, the very concept of nationality in the modern sense is pretty useless.

      Pretty sure Lemmy is very anti-nationalist on average

        my point is that they think they’re anti-nationalist but they still default to nationalist thinking. when discussing the global south, so many people here still insist that the west is somehow free and democratic while scary and different global south is oppressive and autocratic.

    teaches you to take pride in shit you’ve never done

    The better outcome.

    I’m more disgusted by the fuckers who go out and do the war crimes, then come home and demand everyone else say “Thank You For Your Service”.

      Some cases are very ironic, like the one of American veterans who fought in Vietnam coming back there to retire
