Nationalism vs. patriotism vs. globalism

At a political rally in Houston, Texas Monday evening, President Donald Trump proudly characterized himself as a nationalist, and urged his supporters to use the word to describe themselves too. But, his definitions of "nationalism" and "globalism" weren't accurate, so we set the record straight.

Nationalist 1. a person who advocates political independence for a country.
If you have a problem with the meaning of the word “Nationalist” take it up with the people that wrote the dictionary.

Thank you for setting the record straight. How dare these people use hateful words like Nationalism and Patriotism. Next thing you know they'll be using words like Jesus, or mankind.

The world is not interdependent.
We do not necessarily like your way of living.
Let respect each others customs and cultures

She's an idiot,   she's blurring the terms jingoism with nationalism which are two different things. Jingoism is really bad and negative, basically it causes Conflict for one benefit for any purpose at all. Nationalism is basically wanting your own autonomy for your own people and proud of your culture and people.

 Also Nationalism and patriotism are kind of different but they don't mean that you're better than other countries. It's like loving your family, but it doesn't mean you hate other families.  Do you?

I'm a big-time nationalist & Western chauvinist but guess what I like other cultures too, I don't want to see them disappear.


You obviously don't know much about nationalism, Gandhi was a nationalist so was Abraham Lincoln some of these people that you care about we're nationalist.

Nationalist cares about its people, culture, and its citizenry while Patriots care about it's intuitions and system. Both want independent on autonomy from others that's all really means.

Jingoism is the cause of War for any reason for one's benefit.
