oh fuck, you're right
Exile all dissidents
my bad
sure, you might be born here, but you don't truly love our nation
Hell, I'm a natural born, pasty, white American, I don't really identify as American. I accept I was born here, I feel no loyalty towards America
You like to say a lot of bullshit without giving anyone time to explain, so instead you just argue what you perceive to be their position for them and then have an argument with yourself
I'm loyal to my ideals
also
Should you continue, I will simply not respond
Why should people be loyal to nations?
I'm pointing out how your argument makes no sense when taken to its logical conslusion
Unless you're just arguing that xenophobia is a good thing
Except you haven't, you introduce a new point and then argue against my perceived response, and when I respond, you're already halfway through arguing with yourself, so now I have to repeat that again, rinse and repeat
Seems like my characterization of you was ironically correct
Go ahead and answer why one should be loyal to nations, then
I'll wait.
but I don't really see how
You view the world in black and white where there can only be your position or a different one
Bad wording ^
on my part
That's not true at all
See, what you said
It clearly is
implied that a nation should only consist of those who "identify" with it
False
false
\
many domestic citizens don't "identify" with said nation
false
false
false
True.
false
false
false
okay
I didn't say that
What did you intend to imply, then?
"Why does it matter if you have people in your country that don't identify with it"
seems to imply that countries should only harbor those who identify with it
