Unbelievable Claim of USA Patriotism
Isn't it rather weird how humans can claim to be the complete opposite of what their behavior clearly demonstrates them to be? After all, one would expect a human being to know that such claims need to be buttressed by supporting behavior in order for them to avoid being classed as hypocrites.
An example of this is how Republican Party members' claim to be true-blue American patriots. Unfortunately for them, support for such a claim demands that the proclaimers express appreciation for the ideals that the United States represents. Right? You know, an appreciation for the basic principles inherent in democracy, wherein the citizens enjoy the right to vote for representatives to voice their concerns for them in Congress.
After all, this rule by the people, which is what the word democracy means, and has always constituted the cornerstone of American democracy, while any other type of government, such communisms, kingships, or dictatorships, as notoriously exemplified by Stalin, Hitler and Mussolini, have always been deemed totally unacceptable and inferior.
Yet, very strangely, today, we have certain American citizens vociferously announcing themselves to be 100% American Apple pie patriotic, but who are extremely eager in allowing former president Trump, a man who has admitted to that he admires dictators, and who seems hell bent on ruling the USA in a blatantly dictatorial manner, to do as he pleases.
In fact, such an undemocratic attitude identifies such individuals as representing a very serious threat to all that the United States has ever stood, for and all that America, and the rest of the Free World fought against during WWII, when dictatorships were running rampant, and the existence of democracy itself seemed to be in danger of being wiped from the face of the earth by the very dictatorial forces that Trump and his Trumpians clearly admire so much.
So in view of this undemocratic attitude, how indeed can their fanatical claims of being genuinely exemplary American citizens not be taken as clear evidence of hypocrisy?
