I want nationalism but not "National Socialism."

Yucky totalitarian stuff

@Example @freepatriot

Doesn't work. Nazis operate by active not passive methods.

Big point is that everything the Nazis accused the Jews of, democracy is doing.

The pioneer spirit valued realism

Pragmatism often means too much acceptance of the situationa s it is.

Realism means enforcing the reality principle even when unpopular.

Americans don't care if the USA is a police state, but Americans lose their minds if North Korea has tyranny.

If you take a copy of Mein Kampf and replace "the Jew" with "democracy," it starts to make sense.

@monarchist @Palky55 @heretical_i @freepatriot This is true... but many times, this leaves out the questions "beacause", which then brings to light differences in goals, values and method.

Focusing on what works I think is one of the major contributions of the US to philosophy in the 19:th century, pragmatism.
