“Patriotism is bad if it’s for the wrong thing. There is nothing admirable in being patriotic when you are a 1942 German.
Same for Azov and their Polish Galician friends.”
German Jews considered themselves to be patriotic Germans prior to WWII:
“They considered themselves to be patriotic “German citizens of Jewish Faith”. Typically, they lived an assimilated lifestyle and most held liberal Jewish beliefs.”

Those Germans in professional Wehrmacht ranks were patriotic until the Russians entered Germany then strove to reach Allied lines. Patriotism had kept the ranks in order.
Patriotism (and the Holy Bible) kept American troops focused on the WWII taskforce at hand.
Vengeful Nazis in the SS were still concerned with killing Jews to the very end.

When I was in the US Navy, I collected data for NSA. All of my Navy colleagues consider Edward Snowden traitorous.
Ok, so you consider Azov good, and patriotism good for nazi Germans. Got it.
