Happy NOT Independence Day to everyone!

Happy NOT Independence Day to everyone! | "Indeed, conceit, arrogance, and egotism are the essentials of patriotism. Let me illustrate. Patriotism assumes that our globe is divided into little spots, each one surrounded by an iron gate. Those who have had the fortune of being born on some particular spot, consider themselves better, nobler, grander, more intelligent than the living beings inhabiting any other spot. It is, therefore, the duty of everyone living on that chosen spot to fight, kill, and die in the attempt to impose his superiority upon all the others."; EMMA GOLDMAN | image tagged in emma goldman,july 4th,independence day,anarchism,anarcho-communism,conservative logic | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

This is not what Patriotism assumes, this is what Emma assumes that Patriotism assumes
LOL

Emma Goldman, a Russian Anarchist, who later traded her "little spot" in Russia for another one in Canada, to feel "better, nobler, grander and more intelligent than the living beings" elsewhere. I guess famine, genocide, and other beauties resulting from her revolution weren't working out for her. Poor Emma.

I don’t think her being pushed around the globe because of despotism in a number of nation states is the argument you think it is.

Emma was never actually a part of the Russian Revolution. She was deported to the country after and was able to witness the atrocities committed by the Bolsheviks, especially against anarchists and left-communists. She couldn’t deal with it anymore so she left and wrote about her experiences, in her recount My Disillusionment in Russia, she denounces Marxist ideology.

There are no left-wing governors in the United States. Not sure what you think are degenerate social standards, but that language sounds very concerning and fascistic.
