[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4555061, member: 63706"] We were taught the patchwork quilt theory. I don't have a problem with maintaining some sort of national origin identity within communities, families, etc. But for a country to function we have to have an overarching culture that solidifies us as a nation of people who have shared interests and are willing to fight as one to defend those interests. If one set of values has become dominant among all sets of values, it is because that set of values works better than the others. Those are the values that should be integrated as the overarching "American Values". Nationalism is talked about by the forced narrative media (should not be referred to as mainstream any more) as though it were evil. But the alternative to nationalism is globalism. So, I'll keep my nationalism, thank you very much. [/QUOTE]
