Patriotism is a primal instinct that is essential for tribe's organization and survival in a harsh environment and in competition against rival tribes. Tribes are no more, but evolution didn't keep up. Now individuals project those feelings onto their nation/state/race/religion. However, that system can not be logically complete, because patriots of two different nations can never agree whose nation is superior.

Wikipedia:
Terrorism is the systematic use of terror, often violent, especially as a means of coercion.

A patriot is someone who feels a strong support for his or her country.




If a person thinks that committing an act of terrorism will help their country then they may be considered patriotic.  I don't go for the either or argument.  Patriotism generally leads to negative outcomes, this being one of them.

a "terrorist" is one who shares files on TPB/Wikileaks, a "patriot" is one who detains the "terrorist" for over 1100 days and still feebly attempting to charge him with "aiding the enemy" . . .


PS : The terms "patriot" & "terrorist" are inter-changable

British rioters burn buildings and attack government authorities - "violent rioters, send in the army to crush them"

Syrian rioters burn buildings, suicide bomb government ministers, murder soldiers - "peaceful civilian protesters being brutally crushed by despotic regime"

Someone murders an off duty British soldier - "evil terrorist scum"

Someone murders an off duty Syrian soldier - "Brave civilian fighting off the shackles of oppression"

Any freedom fighter in history will also be a "terrorist" in the eyes of the people they fought against. My few examples of how state-run media in the UK and US spin pieces of news to suit their own agenda show this to be the case.

The founding fathers of America, who truly DID fight against tyranny would have been called "terrorists" for advocating violence against the government. And people who truly DO commit atrocities (such as murdering a soldier and eating their heart while recording the act) get labelled "patriots/heroes"" depending on who is doing the reporting.

well, for starters patriots dont fly airplanes into buildings..

That just means that patriots have nukes and drones and other weapons.

Other side just uses resources more cost effectively.


There is no real difference...

Wrong. Patriots believe in self-defense.

But you are probably a Govt zombie who thinks invading other ppl's lands to steal their resources and rob their dignity is 'patriotic'.

self defense isnt flying airplanes into buildings, you derpfool. and no, i'm far from a mindless zombie, but thanks for attacking a true american. most of us know better than the bullshit our goverment feeds us, but what can one man do?

From many angles, they're quite similar, but patriots are more known for their defensive acts, while terrorists perform aggressive actions.

That's what you call a "desperation move." (Also a dick move, but blame democracy for putting the citizens in the crosshairs.)
