what’s the difference between nationalism and patriotism?
In: 1503
Patriot: a person who vigorously supports their country and is prepared to defend it against enemies or detractors.
Nationalist: a person who strongly identifies with their own nation and vigorously supports its interests, especially to the exclusion or detriment of the interests of other nations.
Both are tribal in nature, both can be violent in what they see as the defense of their values, but one will go out of their way to be violent to others.
