Nationalism is nonsensical. It attributes too much importance to nationality, because it's main aim is national homogenization, which is why nationalists stress assimilation, integration and nation states, which are all utopian and overly static views on reality.
It's even bad to look at the world and politics from the perspective of states. Politics is done by parties, one or another. In the past you had this monarch or this aristocrat, now you have this association and this businessman.
So any wishes and declarations about nation states are beyond realistic reach, they're simply futile and overly static, whereas politics is flexible and liquid. You might wish to limit immigration, but you can't declare a nation state, as all of Europe shows. Your wishes and declarations are simply powerless.
Think about the so called "national" industry or banking. Why would you think of big business as part of your nationality, when in reality, they're cosmopolitan people, even though formally they're of the same nationality as you? So why do you care if your bank is jewish or french, or german?
If the elites of my country were nationalistic, then it would be long long ago squeezed by Germany and Russia, because any closer association with non-Poles would be forbidden, so we wouldn't have a union with Lithuania. Nationalists would bring doom to the country and condemn it to become a smaller and weaker state than it is right now. That would be just against any rules of pragmatism and common sense.
Lots of useful things are nonsensical. Though, its really funny to see you pigeonhole nationalism as nonsensical but then depict nationalists as turbo-autists who would never consort with people from other nations. Talk about nonsense!

Thats exactly what a dirty jew would say. Nationalism isnt nonsensical, nationalism is why you and every other european country exists today.
The moment you stop being nationalistic and patriotic, there's a 99% chance you will get consumed and eaten by countries that ARE nationalistic and patriotic.
Non patriotic, non nationalistic countries are losers.
>The moment you stop being nationalistic and patriotic, there's a 99% chance you will get consumed and eaten by countries that ARE nationalistic and patriotic No, because patriotism and nationalism don't take into account things like family and culture. Which is why you can be nationalistic, yet still be replaced by societies that have a healthier family and culture, like muslims

family and culture are two primary things nationalism and patriotism is about, user.

>family and culture are two primary things nationalism and patriotism is about bullshit. Nationalism and patriotism are per se indifferent to family, morality, customs
Even the worst drug addict and degenerate can be a nationalist, thus undermining his desire to limit mass immigration

I agee. Nationalism is a Jewish trick, race is the only thing that matters.

you would be conquered by Moscow if you were consequential in nationalism

you've explained why the wealthy elite are traitors opposed to nationalism but you haven't explained why the defacto state of civilization is nonsensical

Incorrect, northerners are not people.

northerners are the best. only part of the country that is still white.

>but you haven't explained why the defacto state of civilization is nonsensical Because nationalism is utopian and ignores regional circumstances. A nationalistic state might be good for Denmark or Israel. But is it good for Poland or Lithuania? Or USA?

Commonwealth was a failure though. And exactly because of being multiethnic/multicultural.
Jackson Bennett
It failed because it was decentralised and had too much democracy, not because of multiculturalism, while all the other states were absolute monarchies. Russia was even more multiethnic/multicultural, but it survived and won.
Ayden Scott
True, but being multicultural didnt make things easier for us, it was one of few reason why Commonwealth failed
Robert Wilson
so utopianism just pops up naturally? pretty convenient if true but it's not true, there's plenty of inconveniences regarding nationalism that dont disqualify it as the historical best in nation building but do disqualify it as utopian
Wyatt King
Ok, great. One world government time! You better be part of the 1% of the elite who will rule the world, otherwise, you are shit out of luck.
Jace Flores
>Commonwealth was a failure though. And exactly because of being multiethnic/multicultural. Commonwealth allowed Poland to advance from a total shithole state to a semi shithole state. Otherwise we would end up like Estonia or some other country. This is why I am not a nationalist, it's just too unpragmatic
Parker Robinson
why is it that the once great nations of europe are so cucked today?
Asher Hill
Why not be in support of your family and culture while still being nationalistic? Nations can be thought of as extended families. Strong feelings of familial warmth and support is akin to nationalism.
Aaron Smith
The UK was multilcultural. English, Scottish, Welsh, and Irish, and we conquered the world. America is multiculural and owns the world. Multilculturalism works, as long as you can integrate people into the same social myths.
