But you're way too pro-euorpe for me. "all Europeans ought to be proud".. of europe. Why should I be patriotic to a made up thing. At least with nationalism you've got the dirt beneath your feet that was beneath your father's feet and so on. And now the EU somehow wants to change that saying yes, it is yours and was your fathers but now the green mixed with the brown is tinged with blue. We own it in part. Here is your new flag. I won't ever stand for a european anthem. I agree with you that we shouldn’t expand europe. But you’re way too pro-euorpe for me.

I won’t ever stand for a european anthem.
