Any sweeping generalizations about an entire ethnic/racial population will be deleted. Don't do that. Continued responses to already deleted posts will also be deleted

By contrast, nationalism is patriotism transformed into a sentiment of superiority and aggression toward other countries.
That is just what the globalists say about it. Nationalism is simply having patriotism for your own nation and the belief that nations should be independent. The globalists of the world with fantasies of a one world government are attempting to change the definition so that people think it is the same as jingoism. One of the great ideological conflicts of the 21st century is between globalism and nationalism. Patriotism is less of a problem to the globalists since an imitation of it can be made for globalism.

At least Oda is being let off in one piece.

Why do you think the globalists try to stymie something as vital and important as nationalism?

That is a good point. I remember reading that the purpose of restricting speech isn't to protect good ideas but to protect bad ideas. Considering the 100+ million dead from communism/socialism the globalists would prefer to avoid discussion and trying to convince people that nationalism is wrongthink is the easiest way to do that.

I guess what I'm most interested in though is why the globalists are so insistent on hiding those numbers and on ruining potentially healthy, nationalist communities. What are they even trying to accomplish, and why? Why are they so...anti-life?

Okay, I went into this expecting to see another author exposed as a terrible racist, but this is just funny. I've now learned an interesting and humorous piece of history. Thanks Oda.

Also, to anyone worrying about the series getting cancelled, it won't be.

Maybe, the nationalism should stop saying things in the past of there own country didn't happen. I know some nationalism who tell me Slaving wasn't a big deal. So yeah, there are bad apples, globalists didn't make them up.

Wasn't that the soldier that killed a bunch of civilians because he thought they were the enemy?

Ok let's get back on topic please. This debate on nationalism and globalization is off topic.
