Are you proud of your country??

Imho, it isn't about nationalism.
You have basically formed an opinion on this.
You are not proud of your country.
So you should vote I HATE IT..

 

^^^ you make me arf odon... should? shouldn't? fuck off

 

Fuck you. You have to admit you are not a bystander in this debate, though.

Ok, go for "rarely".

(sorry about the "fuck you"...I'm hurt)

 

:smilielol5: :gnorsi:

 

:love:

 

^^^ well only if you admit to being a tinsy wincy bit of a fascist...

 

don't even understand the question

 

I am proud of many things from the UK, but that of course comes along with many things that I don't like and disagree with.

 

Radical and authoritarian nationalist ?

Nope, just proud.

 

Proud of a country that has been servilely sucking American arse since the year of my birth? Of a country that meekly lets America overthrow our democratically elected governments? Hardly.

 

Yup definitely.

 

Australia or Germany? Both? Is there a place in Australia called Germany?
If Australia, why? (If you don't mind me asking).

 

If you are only talking about Australia, aside from your assertion
Whitlam's government:

1975 Australian constitutional crisis:
During the crisis, Whitlam had alleged that Country Party Leader Anthony had close links to the CIA.[111] Subsequently, it was alleged that Kerr acted on behalf of the United States government in procuring Whitlam's dismissal. The most common allegation is that the CIA influenced Kerr's decision to dismiss Whitlam.[112] In 1966 Kerr had joined the Association for Cultural Freedom, a conservative group that was later revealed to have received CIA funding. Christopher Boyce, who was convicted for spying for the Soviet Union while an employee for a CIA contractor, claimed that the CIA wanted Whitlam removed from office because he threatened to close US military bases in Australia, including Pine Gap. Boyce said that Sir John Kerr was described by the CIA as "our man Kerr".[113] Whitlam has written that Kerr did not need any encouragement from the CIA.[114] However, he has also written that in 1977, United States Deputy Secretary of State Warren Christopher made a special trip to Sydney to meet with him and told him, on behalf of US President Jimmy Carter, of his willingness to work with whatever government Australians elected, and that the US would never again interfere with Australia's democratic processes.[115]

Which other Australian government are you refering to?

 

One is not enough?

 

i was referring to the way you came across, when you told me what i should and shouldn't vote...

 

Oh, I see, I was just sayin'.
It was more of a friendly suggestion/nudge than a demand...but I see your point. Oops. Sorry.

If you meant one you should have said one and not included the s, imho (added so you don't think I am a fascist too).
From the brief bit of research I did about the 1 it seems unclear how much relevance the CIA had.
But I'm not going to question that part as I simply do not know enough about the minutia.
I was just curious about the others you were implying.
I guess you misspoke or was being a little melodramtic....which is shocking to everybody, obviously.

 

sorry, i'm confused... you pos repped me and said you thought you deserved it... nice subtle bamboozling there odon

 

I was just kidding.
Your comment made me laugh.
I just wanted to rep' you for the comment.
I just hate leaving the comment section empty.

 

All things being relative, I'm neither proud nor ashamed of my country, How's that for weaseling?

 

Here's another but do your own research, as I always do, if you doubt me.
