Nationalism is not stupid at all, as long as the world still has borders. I have dual citizenship (USA and Ireland) - it's kind of weird having loyalties to two countries.

sport is endorsed by governments desperate to keep a sense of nationalism so that we the public are ready for war with opposing factions!

how can u be proud of a big coloured blob on a map?
u just happened to be born within its borders... and its borders were only created by the accidents of history..
if a certain battle was one by the other side i could be an american, or maybe french.

It just seemed like the best fit, even though it might be mildly offensive to an Irish person. :)

It is very difficult to be proud of something as abstract as a nation. I don't enjoy watching sport because the outcome does not have any influence on my life.

I don't know about medal count, I just like watching the rediculous talents. Other than the Olympics, I'm not very much into sports. Or countries, for that matter—But that's more complicated.

I suppose I can slag my country/politicians off without having to fear for my life which is something to be proud of I guess, but I think the idea that you should be grateful for that is absurd. It's wrong when you can't say those things, it should be normal that you can.
I wonder whether we would actually be happier if the USA did take over the world (it will one day I'm sure) and there wasn't all this war and racism.
