Money is needed for survival. The more money, the better you can improve your surroundings. If you don't need it, give it to me.) All of it.
Ghost, it seems to me that you were simply indoctrinated from an early age to love your homeland.
In general, from a very young age, parents and teachers simply hammer their opinions and ideas into everyone's heads. And children get used to it, thinking that this is how it should be, without really understanding why (this is where arguments like "you need to love your homeland because it's your homeland" come from), or even without trying to explain it. They hammer it in, depriving a person of the ability to form their own opinion on any subject, to figure things out on their own. For the past six months, I've been trying to get rid of all this indoctrination (even I used to be a "patriot" and didn't understand why, it just had to be that way, and that's good).
True, I'm on the path to becoming completely inadequate and incomprehensible to others. But that's better, in my opinion; I won't let my parents and teachers control my mind.
Only those who have been heavily indoctrinated are very unlikely to change their opinions, especially after the age of 15.
(I myself don't know how I managed to renounce all of this).
No one has ever forced anything into my head; I came to all these patriotic feelings on my own. As a child, I also liked all sorts of bright films and cartoons, but now I like Soviet ones, which are full of meaning and morality, rather than visual beauty...
I've always been morally and spiritually strong, I know the greatest secrets and laws of this terrible world.
In the 7th grade, in history class, the teacher, as an exception, asked everyone to write short essays for the lesson, answering the questions: "What would you do if you were president?" and "What has my homeland given me?" I stood out:D
So, patriotism is not fanaticism that is simply forced upon you... If you don't want to, you will never be a patriot... It is a special, conscious, spiritual, cultural, and moral choice... It is the idea and desire to live in the world not just for your own pleasure, but for some, even if modest, goal! For the good of others, for the good of your people!
That's all!
For the Motherland! For Stalin! Kill America - save Russia!:D
P.S. And I don't want to go to the army; I don't want to lose my mind:D I'm a cunning patriot:D
P.S. Also, traditions, customs, and superstitions are also nonsense; nothing will change because of them.
By the way, I've already written somewhere about a society without principles; that's exactly what I meant, without indoctrination, without traditions and superstitions, without stupid principles (like two stubborn donkeys arguing about something just because they are stubborn) and so on.
