  1. True patriotism has nothing to do with wearing a silly red hat, or wrapping yourself in the flag. Those are things you can train a mon.key to do. And if it's something you can teach a mon.key to do, it's probably not patriotic at all. True  Patriotism is caring about what happens to one another. The heart of true patriotism is caring about what happens to your fellow American citizen. "We may have all come on different ships, but we're all in the same boat now." --Dr Martin Luther King Jr

  3. Phony patriotism has been on the rise since Trump became president. It doesn’t matter to Trump cultists that he chooses to side with Russia, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia over America, because all Trump has to do is hold a rally, hug the American flag, while telling the crowd to shout, “U-S-A!” And then all of a sudden, that warm and fuzzy feeling of counterfeit patriotism washes over them. At a rally held by Steve Bannon this past last year, an angry and hostile woman took the mic and said, “Never in my life did I think I would like to see a dictator, but if there’s gonna be one, I want it to be Trump!” which was met with loud cheers and applause from Bannon and the crowd of cultists. It goes without saying that any American who would cheer for that, doesn't believe in liberty, freedom, or the Constitution. Anyone American that cheers for that clearly supports fascism and dictatorships. Trump's cultists don't want an elected official to govern on behalf of the people, they want an authoritarian dictator who will force his will on the nation, and punish anyone who doesn't submit to dogmatic obedience.
