It can be alright if you think your nation's value are worth preserving. E.g. it is Patriotic to defend your country against a fascit invader that wants to remove your nation's self-determination.

I don't think you need to be patriotic to want to defend your country from fascist invaders. That's a purely practical consideration if nothing else.

You can welcome an invasion as a liberation force if no patriotism is involved. Like the eastern front did in WW2 until they realized Nazis were more about creating Lebensraum.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
