My mom asked to inspect my YouTube channel. She yelled at me for subscribing to an Armenian friend (you can tell by the name and profile pic his nationality) and told me to unsubscribe and cut contact with him. Now she said she's calling dad about this and he will have a strict talk with me.
Nationalism is so immature, I can't believe this. My parents choose to come to Canada, they should have left their Turkish nationalism behind. It's so embarrassing. |

"nationalism is okay"
As someone raised by very nationalistic parents, no. It's not okay. |

"no not really." How is having pride in one's country bad? Sure, if you're overprideful, that's bad but modestly doing it is alright. However, if you're like OP's parents who are super prideful, it's bad. |

theres a difference between having a healthy sense of nationalism for your country and being downright mindlessly loyal to it to the point you wont let your child be friends with someone from another country.
Nationalism is not bad, like everything it's bad when you take it to the extreme |

| Everyone here doesn't actually understand what nationalism does to people. It's the reason genocides keep happening and nations hate each other, and don't give me the 'but in moderation!' nonsense. Something that's inherently bad is always bad, in 'moderation' or not. |

@Propa Sounds more like patriotism to me, nationalism is always extreme. Take a look at the dictionary. |

@Sor
Because nationalism is what created America and other places.
It's the person's fault for their dumb ignorance with it.
Best to reason with the person

On Google, Patriotism is a synonym for Nationalism.

| Apparently you don't know what nationalism means to most people. Nor do you care to enlighten yourself, as the dictionary will clearly tell you that I'm in the right. So, gg, whatever. No point in casting pearls before swine. |
