This video is about nationalism and why it is so dangerous. Here I talk briefly about what nationalism is, where it comes from, what it makes us believe and why it just benefits the ruling class. And if you think patriotism is different, this video is for you.

This video is about reactionary nationalism, not revolutionary nationalism, such as black or Palestinian nationalism.
