I've always viewed Nationalism as on par with Racism, at the center of the ideology is a little triumphant voice proclaiming 'I'm better than you are'. Why should I be proud of being British? It makes as little sense as being proud to be white, male or working class...all accidents of birth, in the end the only one thing I can truly be proud of is myself and my accomplishments. Not the circumstances of my birth.
In the words of Friedrich Nietzsche 'Zarathustra has lost the love of his people because Zarathustra has learned to love all peoples'.
