Nationalism is a complex, multidimensional concept involving a shared communal identification with one’s nation. Identity, solidarity, and self determination are the core values of nationalism. The preservation of a nation’s culture, the ability of a nation to self govern, and close links to patriotism are characteristics of nationalism. Nationalism is not inherently evil, but it can turn dark very easily. This ideology must be practiced very carefully, if at all.

Same thing. If you aren’t a nationalist, you cant be a patriot.
Gum flappin for gum flappin’s sake.
It’s false choice but in my opinion we’d be better served by calling ourselves patriots as opposed to nationalists, especially given that the left will cede the label to us gladly.
Nope, jingoism is merely a word communists and progressives started using to describe patriotism as it always existed.
Aren’t all nationalists also patriots??
A patriot. I loathe the word nationalist - which is a deeply loaded word with a long history.
SAME!
Yes, I have wondered “how the Neocons can logically argue for large-scale Islamic immigration into the USA?” And my conclusion is they are PSYCHOPATHS, why else would they want to inflict islam upon the free world? Their bleeding hearts and morally superiority are the shields they wear to hide their delight in the knowledge of the destruction they will inflict upon the rest of us by helping push the invaders agenda. Psychopaths have no conscious, no inherent sense of right or wrong only, all they have is their covert secret delight in hurting others.

It was nationalism, not patriotism, that motivated Queen Isabella to evict muslim invaders and their cohorts under threat of death in 1492 and 1502 after the battle of Granada and the breaking of the Treaty of Granada. Had she not done so, all of Europe would eventually have been enslaved.
Anyone who says Islam is a religion of peace only need to look at what happened to Spain and Iberia over a period of 700 years.
“In August of 1480, the Turks attacked and took the city of Otranto in the Kingdom of Naples. The atrocities committed were particularly heinous as Walsh details:
Of the 22,000 inhabitants, the barbarians bound 12,000
with ropes and put them to death, thus helpless, with
terrible tortures. They slew all the priests in the city.
They sawed in two the aged Archbishop of Otranto,
whom they found praying before the altar. On a hill
outside the city, now known as Martyrs’ Hill, they
butchered many captives who refused to become
Mohammedans, and threw their corpses to the dogs.
[Walsh, Isabella of Spain, p. 192] “

It’s hard to be one without the other, while the author pretends that they’re mutually exclusive.
Or?
