So, let me get this straight - I can't be proud of my country and help
other's at the same time? Why does this have to be a boolean? I love my
country. I didn't say my country was perfect. Last time I checked, none
of us live in Utopia. Yes, extreme patriotism can lead to wars. I'm not
saying that. I'm just saying that there is nothing wrong with having
pride in your country, especially if you keep an open mind about your
faults.

Heck, the same thing applies to people.

Also, I'm not saying being proud of your country is the most important
thing. Of course it's not. But don't say it's bad.
