       @Paxxi @bradwilson @zkat good point. At the same time look at Russian patriotism. Even many “good Russians” are still convinced Russia is a great country. Are there really two (or more) concepts that we both call patriotism? One is a healthy love for their country that wishes no harm to anyone, and one is a blind, proud, almost religious faith crossing into supremacy, intolerance and nationalism? I feel like understanding this better can explain a lot going on in the world right now.

       @zkat @Paxxi @bradwilson to clarify, I think Russian patriotism is toxic, anyone who says Russia is a great country in 2023 is brainwashed and in a cult. It’s the same white nationalism as in the US. A very clear example of bad patriotism.

       @Paxxi @bradwilson @zkat but clearly, a big part of patriotism is toxic, I’m trying to understand how much of it? I know someone Indian who loves India, I see nothing wrong there (but it’s immediately bad when it is accompanied by dislike of Pakistan, for example).

       @spolsky fixing what's broken as a priority, routinely paying off technical debt and fighting entropy

       We identified this whale in Alaska Holkham Bay by the unique pattern on the tail. Meet Siara (https://happywhale.com/individual/11179), at least 13 years old, often spotted in this area.
