Colleagues. I don't feel like having to publish 20 disclaimers here to clarify exactly what I mean. People who want to understand my message will understand them. You should not look for too many "double-bottoms" or "hidden messages" in them. Do you have a problem with the "superficiality" of my post.... so be it.
DETRUMPIFY YOURSELF Buy european products Travel european countries Vote pro european parties Defend european values Use european technology Use european opensource Invest in european companies
Nationalism does not help against oppression because you cannot use nationalism against capitalists as capitalism is not a nationality but the root cause of oppression itself.
Nationalism is a tool for the owning class, that is not itself affected by the circumstances that enable the becoming of nationalists and is simultaneously shielded from the fallout of nationalism that inevitably ensues, to further division between us humans and to give people an incentive to go to war against their brothers and sisters for them in their stead, and to spill their blood over a made up symbol that has no actual meaning.
