Why in the fuck are we praising patriotism here? It's literally just religious-like devotion to a nation state, and basically result of nationalism

Without knowing either of those people, they might be just as patriotic and it's equally as bad.

Wanting to improve your society is a form of patriotism.

America are the ones who have convinced everyone it's the opposite

Improving your country IS serving it. Non Americans do it all the time, the act just isn't associated with the word because the US has a media industry built to hijack the meaning of things. Don't make me start talking all pro-social and hope pilled, I'm not that guy anymore.
