In your opinion, do the harms of patriotism outweigh the benefits?

That depends on your definition of patriotism.

If you define it as loving your country to the exclusion and detriment of all else, you define it differently than I do.

I love my country, but I am not blind to its faults and I don't think we should always make decisions based only on what is 'best' for us. I have been to other countries and I loved some of them, too, but this, to me, is home.
