Nah, it's him. Wanting to fight over someone stepping on a rag is profoundly stupid. The insecurity is mind boggling.

About as weak as getting but hurt about somebody wanting to fight somebody else. Maybe?

It might seem that way if you don't belong to a cultural group yourself. A lot of redditors are zombie level consumerists with zero sense of culture, so they're not equipped with a frame of reference to understand things like family, community, blood, culture, etc.

You don't have to be a thin skinned nationalist to understand family, community, and culture. By blood I assume you mean some intangible shared national destiny since you already said family.

Yes, that's what I mean. Canelo gets it at least and he's the best boxer alive.

Ok. I'll probably never understand nationalists and patriots.

I don't particularly understand cosmopolitan ultra consumerists but I'm here to try

I don't get the ultra consumerist part either.

Probably a bit inflammatory on my part, cosmopolitan modern progressive may be a more appropriate term.

You are a troll

Is everyone who holds different values from you a troll? Seems like a reductive and simplistic worldview.

Ah, got it.

Yes, I am very much that. Consumerist doesn't fit.

I'm on this platform mainly to expose myself to people like you, I'm not a typical part of the reddit demographic but I sincerely appreciate being challenged on my preconceived notions. So thanks for engaging with me, even though we don't see eye to eye.

If that means that your country/culture thinks violence is a way of dealing with someone disrespecting their flag, then I feel there are much bigger underlying problems that need to be addressed.
