23. Nationalism for Europeans is not about borders but about blood

The word comes from the root "born". Historically there has always been an ethnic or racial undertone. Americans commonly think in terms of patriotism instead.

America to its credit has embraced diversity. It's what sets it apart and what really makes it great. But there are major exceptions. There is a really interesting study recently comparing different countries on how they view diversity. The difference with Europe is striking and also how the difference among Americans themselves pretty much coincides with Trump's supporters.
