@DamienMarieAtHope Yes nationalism is terrible, nations should never fight to throw out imperialists, just let 'em steal what they want, right? That Gandhi, he was a terrible nationalist, always banging on about India... And George Washington? Once a colony always a colony, that's what I say! Down with Nationalism!

@tomclearwood I want all states to end, capitalism a thing of the past, all borders removed, and for us to live as one humanity, one global human family.

@DamienMarieAtHope Clearly the only route to that outcome is for 99.9% of humans to die first! Even then it would be highly unlikely...
I'm a Scottish Nationalist! Do you think I'm bad for wanting to be governed by parties we actually elect? Is that too much to ask? We're governed now by an extreme right wing Conservative Party. The Scottish electorate last voted Conservative in 1955! Do you see why that's a big problem? What would you do?

@tomclearwood There was a time when all the world had slavery and then that changed, once the thought of not having kings what some far off fantasy but now most kings are a thing of the past.

@DamienMarieAtHope The Worldwide Anational Association in English, but they use Esperanto rather than any national language for international communication

@tomclearwood he’s probably unaware of civic nationalism plus other positive forms. It’s ignorant to think nationalism only equally fascism. @DamienMarieAtHope

@tomclearwood @DamienMarieAtHope While administrative and political maps are useful for keeping government at local scales, to serve different populaces with different needs,

why should it be anything more than that

why do political boundaries have to define nations this much, nations aren't countries.

Besides, even the idea of a "country" means different things in different countries. Sometimes states inside countries act like countries, sometimes unions of countries act like countries.
