Future people will be baffled by the concept of countries. Racism at least makes sense because it's about aesthetic preferences, but nationalism is just like:>let's kill each other based on arbitrary bordersYes I know it's a reddit opinion, but just read up on Chinese history and tell me you don't feel the same>the state of Qu attacked the state of Wu after the latter was exhausted fighting the state of Xu, which was colluding with the state of Lu to overthrow the state of Du and install the puppet state of Bu; however, the rapidly expanding state of Fu clashed with the nearby state of Yu, plunging the region into chaos
>>18537476As a Swiss, I'm already kind baffled by it today. I genuinely hold no hatred against any "nation" because the whole idea is fucking nonsense. Way too many of my best friends are foreigners from Russia, Serbia, France, etc... for me to even consider thinking "yeah that whole country must be terrible!" Plus Switzerland is full of former Yugos whose country literally fell apart into irrelevant little poorfag shitholes because they opted for suicidal nationalism instead of just collaborating together and realizing nobody outside of Yugoslavia gives a single fuck about how """different"""" they supposedly are. It's a warning for the rest of the world.

>>18537476I understand why there is resentment between different groups. Like Germany and Poland. Russia and Ukraine. Iraq and Iran It is lore
>>18537494also, the concept of countries doesnt make sense to low iq modern leftshits because it clashes with their revisionist history of everything being an imaginary melting pot of arbitrary lines on a map that were made for no reason.where in reality nations for all of history were overwhelmingly made up of a homogeneous specific group of people who are genetically very similar, with similar behaviour, wants, needs, culture, history, goals, ways of thinking etc.

It's a warning for the rest of the world.The reason why Yugoslavia fell apart is rather intuitive (the richer states saw the poor ones as an economic burden and wanted to integrate themselves into the Western Euro sphere). The reason why outsiders are so perplexed by this is because Balkan nationalist talking points are so low IQ. You'll have Croats saying they're Mitteleuropa because Austrians built some fancy buildings in Zagreb 150 years ago and you'll have Serbs saying they're tuff because they rebelled against Ottomans that one time while Croats were under Austrian rule and this makes Croats le bad o algo

Kinda like how America was mutted and then taken over by racially pure Ashkenazi Jews.
>>18537476Countries have always existed, tranny
>>18537476They're not fighting each other based on arbitrary borders, they're fighting each other because the people in power want to expand their power by taking control of more territory. >>18537491>As a Swiss, I'm already kind baffled by it today.

>>18537476You're thinking of patriotism. Nationalism is about the people, not the state.

>>18537508>Swiss people be saying: "I love criminal Slavs from the Balkans and Eastern Europe in my country, but these god damn Germans, who speak the same language as us in a slightly different way, are ruining the country!"Nobody says this lol. Swiss who look down on Germans also look down on Yugos and shit. Also Switzerland isn't politically correct, we just straight up ban Serbs and Albanians from buying guns here because it's an effective solution to gun crime kek. None of this contradicts the fact that I judge individuals as such and have met plenty of highly skilled and productive members of society who are Serbs or Bosnians etc...
>>18537558Everyone judges people individually. You are not special. What matters is, if you are willing to be part of a political project, which restricts citizenship based on ethnicity or not.
>>18537476>Racism at least makes sense because it's about aesthetic preferencesvisual difference is by far the most extremely minor and least significant factor of race, physical or mental.as for nationalism, it is actually a very complex idea with multifarious applications. it has been used to unite and liberate ethnic groups, justify or oppose empires, and promote the class interests of workers, bourgeoisie or the military class. nationalism isn't the same thing as grug-brained loyalism to the state, in fact it is often, perhaps usually, opposed to it. the german liberals first attempted to use nationalism in order to dismantle the complex aristocratic dominate state system of the holy roman empire.your reading of the warring states period is similarly juvenile. it was not a nationalist or even a national conflict, it was a conflict between different ruling classes attempting to establish themselves as overlords of all china. it's the same for the modern chinese civil war, the warlords were not leading nations against each other, they were trying to make their states the one true state for the whole nation.>>18537615>Everyone judges people individually.this is actually not true, most people lack the IQ, mental clarity and willpower to conceptualise another individual on his own terms, usually they are projecting something or another. this can be done collectively ("fucking serbs etc") or individually ("peter is such a smug bastard thinking he's so cool because he graduated from yale" meanwhile peter doesn't give a fuck about that).i am pro ethnonationalism but i think you are too optimistic in your view of other people and human relations.
OP doesn't realize China hasn't always been ethnically homogenous like it is now.These states are really manifestations of cultural differences.

>>18537476No, they'll understand them perfectly well. Because they'll still have them. Nothing about them is arbitrary. A state cannot serve all interests equally. And the more and stronger the competing interests are, the greater the imcentive for people to split off their states that will better serve their own. And those competing interests don't just go away, so the resultant multiple states will also compete against one another. All of this is entirely natural and unavoidable.
>>18537476I don't think people will be confused by the concept of states, since they have pretty much existed since recorded history. What will baffle them is the current world system, where a state is allowed to basically implode, but all the other stronger states around are forced to just sit back and watch instead of immediately invading and annexing all the land. That is a really weird concept.
>>18537476>infinite civil war in africa and the middle east because of ethnic and religious conflict that started because yuros didn't know what the fuck they were doing when they drew the bordersYou have to be extremely naive and sheltered to think that every single culture on the planet could live in the same country without any kind of problems.

>>18537476I don’t feel you can use Chinese history as an example and then create a fictitious summary of what I presume to be your view of the Spring and Autumn or Warring states period since that is legitimately ancient history, the differences between states culturally was much larger, their dialects would seem different, their writings, measurements, currency, etc. But it seems little different now as we’re pronouncing their characters using Mandarin.
