Why do people in our own country try to belittle us for being proud to be Scottish when abroad our country is loved?

Adstars
Because in a PC fascist state of Brittan white people are not allowed to celebrate their heritage.
Adstars
See your a PC fascist. Oh and your brainless comment about colonialism, water off a ducks back.
winstonwelles
Yeah, responding with insults and trying to claim you don't care in the same reply is kind of self-contradictory.
Adstars
I don't like PC fascists. So i do care about that. But the actual colonialism BS nope that is water off a ducks back. That in fact was an insult to me. My response was a response to an insult.

The old saying that nobody can hurt you like family can is partly a joke of questionable taste about just how dysfunctional so many of us are.

I *guess* you have never been outdoors in Edinburgh when England looses a football match and heard the cheering coming from inside all the houses/flats?

I've never met anyone that loves Scotland, actually.
mpde
That's because you never met me, I loved it.
Jesshi
And I likely never will.

You never know, I would love to go to Scotland again in my life time. I always travel with a friend so maybe you could bring a friend and the 4 of us could have coffee.

The fact that you assume you're loved everywhere might be WHY they're encouraging a tad more humility at home.

The romanticised myth might be loved abroad , but myth and reality are quite different things.

Careful now, you don't want to be accused of being a member of the Haggis Liberation Front.

Read your question back substituting "American" or "English" and ask yourself how it sounds.
mpde
I don't know, my step Mother was Scotts and I've been to Scotland and Loved it.
