Anti-Nationalist
An Anti-Nationalist is a person opposed to Nationalism, which is the rigid belief in the superiority of a country - usually the person's country - over all other countries.|
A Nationalist might say that an Anti-Nationalist is a person who hates his or her own country. In some cases, that might be true, but in the majority of cases it is an untrue stereot ype.
The majority of Anti-Nationalists are against the notion that their country is automatically superior to another or any other, because although they are patriots, they understand that countries are human constructs and are equally likely to be victims of human failings... in fact, one of the failings of humans is a perverted form of Nationalism that claims that all opposition is entirely wrong.

He called me an Anti-Nationalist because I favored Brazil in the World Cup. But his belief that the USA was superior to Brazil was entirely mistaken, after Brazil won the World Cup and the US team didn't even make it past the quarter-finals.
