I'm arguing against 2k who thinks it does
can you teach me to be human
If he believes that then he's had too much fucking Ouzo
The point is that he says hes against nationalism while being a nationalist for the EU
the EU f*cked his country over
And making statements about contending with China and the US on the world stage
Which is literally what he is complaining about nationalism for
EU: take in a shit load of immigrants and dont complain unless you're a racists
Greece: mmmkay mom
The logic goes "Germany was nationalist. Germany caused ww2. Germany is the only nationalist country ever to exist. QED nationlism leads to war. EU is federalist. EU has not caused any wars. EU is the only federation ever to exist. QED federalism leads to peace"
No that's not it
It goes like this
thats a terribly brainwashed way of thinking isnt it?
Nationalism caused WW1 and WW2
the logic anyway
Nationalism is bad
Therefor no nation should be nationalist
thats stupid
Brainwashed? No, just contains a logical fallacy that is normally skipped when it's fed as a soundbite
ive never met someone who thinks like that
*chews on some bamboo shoots*
If you've heard someone claim nationalism causes war, or EU has created peace, then they've made the same logical fallacy
it sounds like 1984
And then it starts with the pro EU nationalism
being honest
I can't really think of any examples on the spot
I'm new to this debate
By all means be pro-EU - just be honest about it
so im online when reasonable people are hmmm
why cant this always happen
Not living in the EU
sometimes i talk to nazis
Most pro-EU people are just not - PureEvilPie are great examples of it
PureEvilPie is a EU nationalist
They aren't honest about their positions and don't recognise the position of the opponent as being legitimate
I use him as an example on this topic
PeP is a tard
He's a coward
aww dont call him names
frankly
