Why proud? What is left to be proud of, I wonder?
Nationalistic sentiments like that are part of the reason why we're in this mess to begin with. Start being critical of your government today. Never be satisfied with the status quo. Don't accept the meager good in spite of the overwhelming bad. Fight to change things for the better so that you can say you are proud of the positive change you made in your country, rather than celebrating merely being born or living here.
Another part of the reason we're in this mess is infighting and weird purity tests/emotional gatekeeping. So stop that
