First lesson in PATRIOT HISTORY
Nationalism is love of the ruling government.
Patriotism is love of the land.
Big difference.

This is an important distinction for countries that were under colonialism.
In Vietnam people hated the French government, but they loved the land.
They worked the land, got food from the land, buried their dead in the land, inherited the land.
American advisors could not understand this because the U.S. is obsessed with upward mobility and moving.

One of the clearest examples of patriotism is Woody Guthrie& #39;s THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND.
Some Americans have sought to make this our new national anthem.
Some institutions have already adopted it: https://www.krmg.com/news/local/tulsa-athletic-replace-national-anthem-with-this-land-your-land-woody-guthrie/der00TizY3hGGnabrEqX3M/">https://www.krmg.com/news/loca...

If you haven& #39;t heard the song in a while, THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND is inspired.
The lyrics would warp the mind of a sleazy real estate tycoon President whose passion is putting his name on buildings.
This is why I consider myself a patriot.
