This poll isn't about "patriots" who disagree with people, it's about "patriots" who hate. For the 80th time, this poll does not apply to patriots who have no hate. How difficult is this to understand??
By the way OP do you even know what Patriotism is
Its letting some blow hole holler at funerals and not ripping their lips off
Its a band of men and women standing between those blow holes and the mourners
It's my uncle a German fighting in WW2 Germany possibly shooting at his cousin
Its man that cries because a building fell or burned and he didn't get everyone out
It's a man or woman that listens to the debates and arguments then walks into a voting booth
It's watching a football game and hoping for your team to win
Now I'm tired of typing except people will notice I didn't mention solders. I am one I'm not gonna thank my self. I think this is the first time on CD I have ever been mad about a post.
Vast bit of difference agreeing to disagree or saying no thanks to whatever someone is selling and aiming at American citizens/ groups with intent to annihilate them.
I'm very angry at these 'non-Americans' telling the rest of us they're the only 'real Americans'. They aren't the ones getting shot at. Centrists are. They'll defend westboro baptists, but kill a centrist who dares do the work of listening to all sides. Selective attention/ enforcement is a very curious thing.
Amazing, all I asked was if patriotism is compatible with hating large numbers of your fellow citizens, and this firestorm erupts. Not one person was able to answer the question in their posts, yet they became very defensive, all the while voting in the poll. I wonder why?
What does patriotic have to do with "liking" people??
I dunno. Try asking those sitting on the right claiming all leftists are "anti-American haters", 'left' being redefined outside websters dictionary as anyone who fails to agree with their hatred.

Definition of PATRIOTISM
: love for or devotion to one's country
It depends. If you view one's country as the people in it, yeah, I guess according to websters it is relevant. If you view country as just the land and not the people in it. Than I suppose it has nothing to do with it.
Perhaps I should have asked if you could "Love America" but hate the people in it.

Thou doth protest too much.
Patriotic Americans dont hate their fellow citizens so your question cannot be ansewerd here, nice try though. your poll is dumb I did not vote I am not dumb
