    Considering that China isn't founded on settler colonialism, genocide, and chattel slavery, I'd say Chinese nationalism is inevitable gonna be less toxic than US nationalism.

        I could say "Read Lenin". Instead, I'm going to ask - do you think national liberation movements to throw off the yoke of imperialism are bad?

          Liberation is good. Nationalism as a tool to accomplish it is a double-edged sword.

          China is a sovereign entity, if you have that jingoistic pride bullshit going on after you become independant and a major power player in the world then yes, it is bad to be nationalistic

            All nationalism is toxic, don’t fool yourself

            after you become independant

            OK, so already we agree that not all nationalism is toxic. I'm not quit this conversation because I'm not interested in a pointless struggle session over how established a country is allowed to be before any form of nationalism is bad.
