when one takes their sense of national pride to extreme levels as to become an unintentionally comical stereotype of what patriotism embodies and deliberately hating those that
don't share the same intensity that they have, particularly those from other countries, other races and other religions...they are identified by their over-the-top demonstrations and admirations for national symbols, like hundreds of small
American flags on their front yard, attaching gigantic
American flags to the back of their pick-up trucks, etc...and their ability to turn any common, everyday conversation no matter how mundane into an instant political debate...the temper on
people exhibiting this characteristic is incredibly
short and are best avoided whenever possibly, particularly during summer months where heat adds on to their already enflamed attitude and news stories about Black Lives Matter or removal of confederate statues
kicks it up several notches...
the family's hopes of having a peaceful family dinner were quickly crushed as
father's hyper-neo-nationalism was
triggered and he masterfully managed to turn a point over the color of one of the
children's shirts into a full-on tirade about the corruption of the mainstream media and why black protestors should be locked up for the rest of their lives.
