Reminder that the Israeli state is far right nationalist, the Hamas is far right nationalist, the Islamic Republic of Iran is far right nationalist.

Nationalism means war, far right kills.

"What is patriotism? Is it love of one's birthplace, the place of childhood's recollections and hopes, dreams and aspirations? Is it the place, where, in childlike naivety, we would watch the fleeting clouds, and wonder why we, too, could not go so swiftly? The place where we would count the miliard glittering stars, terror-stricken lest each one "an eye should be," piercing the very depths of our little souls? Is it a place where we would listen to music of the birds, and long to have wings to fly, even as they, to distant lands? Or the place where we would sit at mother's knee, enraptured by wonderful tales of great deeds and conquests? In short, is it love for the spot, every inch representing dear and precious recollections of a happy, joyous, and playful childhood?

If that were patriotism, few American men of today could be called upon to be patriotic, since the place to play has been turned into factory, mill and mine, while deafening sounds of machinery have replaced the music of the birds. Nor can we longer hear tales of great deeds, for the stories our mothers tell today are but those of sorrow, tears and grief.

What, then, is patriotism? "Patriotism, sir, is the last resort of scoundrels" said Dr. Johnson. Leo Tolstoy, the greatest anti-patriot of our times, defines patriotism as this principle, that will justify the training of wholesale murderers; a trade that requires better equipment for the exercise of man-killing than making of such necessities of life as shoes, clothing and houses; a trade that guarantees better returns and greater glory than that of an average workingman.

Gustave Herve, another great anti-patriot, justly calls patriotism a superstition - one far more injurious, brutal, and inhumane than religion. The superstition of religion originated on man's inability to explain a natural phenomena. That is, when primitive man heard thunder or saw the lightning, he could not account for either, and therefore concluded that back of them must be a force greater than himself. Similarly, he saw a supernatural force in the rain, and in various other changes in nature. Patriotism, on the other hand, is a superstition artifically created and maintained through a network of lies and falsehoods; a superstition that robs man of his self-respect and dignity, and increases his arrogance and conceit.

Indeed, conceit, arrogance and egoism are the essentials of patriotism. Let me illustrate. Patriotism assumes our globe is divided into little spots, each one surrounded by an iron gate. Those who had the fortune of being born on some particular spot, consider themselves better, nobler, grander, more intelligent than the living beings inhabiting other spot. It is, therefore, the duty of everyone living on that chosen spot, to fight, kill, and die in the attempt to impose his superiority upon all the others. The inhabitants of the other spots reason in like manner, of course, with the result that, from early infancy, the mind of the child is poisoned with blood-curdling stories about the Germans, the French, the Italians, Russians etc. When the child has reached manhood, he is thorougly saturated with the belief that he is chosen by the Lord himself to defend HIS country against the attack or an invasion of any foreigner. It is for that purpose that we are clamoring for a greater army and navy, more battleships and ammunition. It is for that purpose that America has within a short time spent four hundred million dollars*. (13 billions in today's money) Just think of it - four hundred million dollars taken from the produce of the PEOPLE. For surely, it is not the rich who contribute to patriotism. They are cosmopolitans, perfectly at home in every land. We in America know well the truth of this. Are not our rich Americans Frenchmen in France, Germans in Germany or Englishmen in England? And do they not squander with cosmpolitan grace fortunes coined by American factory children and cotton slaves? Yes, theirs is the patriotism that will make it possible to send messages of condolence to a despot like the Russian Tsar, when any mishap befalls him, as President Roosevelt did in the name of HIS people, when Serigus was punished by the Russian revolutionists.

It is patiotism that will assist the arch-murderer, Diaz, in destroying thousands of lives in Mexico, or that will even aid in arresting Mexican revolutionists on American soil and keep them incarcerated in American prisons, without the slightest cause or reason.

But then, patriotism is not for those who represent wealth and power. It is good enough for the people. It reminds one of the historic wisdom of Frederic the Great, the bosom friend Voltaire who said: "Religion is a fraud, but it must be maintained for the masses."

Emma Goldman, Anarchism and Other Essays, Patriotism: A Menace to Liberty

I wholeheartedly recommend you reading the essay in it's entirety. It is but a 6 pages long, but contains many useful insights on the matter.

Of course I value democracy. Democracy is important. It's just that I have one thing more important:

You're not allowed to fucking rape me. And that would be true, even if the 99 other people in the room voted in favor of it.

Luckily, abortion rights are something the majority wants, so my goals are in-line with democracy for now. But at the end of the day, I am fighting this bloodbath to stop a very specific kind of atrocity, not for any other higher ideals. It's important to keep in mind.

#abortion rights #leftism #anarchism #tyranny of the majory #benevolent dictators #female dictators #critical authoritarianism: my personal brand of political theory which takes most far-left talking points at face value #but ultimately admits to not having enough faith in human nature to put those models into practice #thought experiment #impotent rage against the machine #treating democracy like a sacred cow is really dangerous actually #it is a dilution mechanism for political power nothing less nothing more #we do it a disservice not to criticize it #global patriotism #antinationalism #if we just all quietly accepted that the USA was kind of “over” what would that even look like? not paying taxes i guess

[creekfiend]

the main thing that's making me literally insane right now in leftwing spaces is that I am *deeply* familiar with zionist talking points and what the scary hypermilitarized Israeli rightwing say about why they're allowed to commit war crimes and it's "we have had a sufficient amount of atrocities committed against us that now we are allowed to do this" and then I see alleged leftists being like "right, Jews can't do a violent nationalism just bc they've had atrocities done to them. but THIS group can do a violent nationalism bc they've had atrocities done to them"

like is the problem with Zionism the nationalism, or is it the JEWISH nationalism? because. I have news based on the history of the last 100 years: oppressed ethnic and religious groups can't solve their own oppression by aggressively buying into nationalism. how do I know this. well because I'm a Jew and we tried that!

#this is not fucking both sides ism #its universal antinationalism and if you dont believe that why are you EVEN here. #Israel Palestine t #now im going to go scream into a pillow about people being murdered ostensibly in my name for another two weeks. bye

[demobatman]

the entire issue with that post is the privilege behind posting it. yeah a white boy can visit israel and love it but palestines are actively dehomed and murdered for being there. understand the nuance. and heres a link to what israel did to palestinians last year and a snippet from the article.

#its not antisemitism its antinationalism and if you don't understand that than youre dismissing the rights of palestinians and their Lives #discourse #non st #also why are yall bending over backwards to defend an actor you dont Know. #free palestine #and its all 'criticism is important' until its about actually important things #this is a current fucking issue that needs to be spoken out against. its fucking apartheid and its wrong #this actor is not immune to criticism.

in terms of names for a character whose only purpose is to unsubtly exemplify everything that the book is railing against, "ned land" is only half a step below "anathema device" i think

#20.000 leagues doesn't rail WELL #mostly bc jules verne was too racist for his antinationalism to have any teeth #but the intent is there #and an attempt was made

[aksemmi]

It would have been cool if there was like the energy and vibes of bush era new atheism but in the equivalent for antinationalism. mercilessly mocking anyone who flies the american flag, fact checking any patriotic statement with long links of statistics and records of atrocities, in this moment i am euphoric, not because of any phony nation, but because i am enlightened by my own intelligence
