Since I was a kid, I never understood why the following feelings or ideals were bad:
1. Being proud of your race. Everyone should think their race is the best.
2. Being proud of your Nation. Your current nation. I’m from an english background, but I’m not english. I’m American. And I think that our country should be the best in the world. If it’s not, I want to work toward it being that way.
For some strange reason those two simple concepts are verboten and should be shunned ?
I’m not convinced.
I’m an American and America is the best that the entire human race has EVER assembled.

‘National’ doesn’t even mean ‘Nationalism’. The first is just a description, while the latter is more an ideology. ‘National Socialism’ contains the former.
Nationalism and Socialism are not mutually exclusive.
Nationalism and Globalism are, however.
National Socialism is not inherently evil. The problem with it and any other form of socialism is that the requisite level of government control it requires lends itself to evil.
I hate to say, but in the USA with out ever-growing police and surveillance state the same opportunity for evil exists here and the threat grows with each new regulation, law, or illegal act by ‘law enforcement’ that conditions people to accept authoritarian rule.
a group of people are free to live a communist/socialist lifestyle in America.
However, do not attempt to use our government to FORCE everyone else to live that way.
And living in any such group does not make you exempt from our laws.
