You've not understood my argument and just blurted out your own prejudices.

Stop wriggling, we are not superior to anybody else.

Well, you're not.

It's a joke Steely.

I've explained in multiple posts my view on nationalism. If you're not going to come back with a sensible counter argument then I'm not going to waste my time.

So that is still an implication of being superior on the basis of nationality alone.

I am sure that is quite wrong as other posters have pointed out as well.

It is only common sense.

As I child I actually believed that we were the most important people in the world and that the world revolves around us. It may be that way for everyone in every walk of life.
Learning self awareness, educating myself(not being force educated) and travelling extensively taught me that what I belived as child could not be further from the truth.
I honestly believe that there are a lot of people that do non of the above and go through life believing that they are superior by virtue of nationality.

So you learned that we are inferior?

You learned the wrong lesson.

People are what they make for themselves by adapting.
A tiny nation like ours once ruled half the planet. I'm not ashamed of that and I certainly don't feel inferior to anyone.

Do you believe in unicorns as well?

I'm ethnocentric, but I don't believe that a nationality bestows anything on the holder.....does anyone believe that?

Cultures have superiority not nationality.
