I get where you're coming from. But please also understand that "pride for one's country" and "pride for America" are two separate domains, and that when people lack pride for America it isn't some kind of "political correctness" (I mean seriously, it's still politically incorrect to bash the American government and its activities)

It is way, way, way, more complex than that and I'm sure you know this.

I know you were just defending what you saw was a wrongful attack against yourself, but you accidentally snuck in attacks on other demographics in the process.
