The terms  \u201cnationalism\u201d  and  \u201cpatriotism\u201d  are often used interchangeably. This is understandable, as they have somewhat overlapping meanings, both of which suffer from a certain amount of vagueness. However, there are a number of key differences between the two that are worth shedding light on. In the final analysis, we believe that the term  \u201cnationalism,\u201d  while not denoting anything totalitarian by its nature, is not an accurate term for the sentiment that exists in the United States. Nationalism, it would seem, is more suited to Europe or Asia, places with historic nations, united by common language and ethnicity that are  necessarily  tied with a certain area of land. &amp;nbsp;  There\u2019s a lot to unpack here and the differences are extremely subtle. And to give a bit of a spoiler, we\u2019re not going to be taking the position, as is often the case, that patriotism is fine but nationalism is simply a metastatic and malignant form of patriotism. &amp;nbsp; You can read the full article \u201cNationalism  vs. Patriotism: What's the Difference and Why it Matters\u201d at Ammo.com. &amp;nbsp; For $20 off your $200 purchase, go to https:\/\/ammo.com\/podcast (a special deal for our listeners). &amp;nbsp; Follow Sam Jacobs on Twitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/SamJacobs1776 &amp;nbsp;  Helpful Links:&amp;nbsp;  Resistance Library&amp;nbsp; Sam Jacobs  ","author_name":"The Resistance Library from Ammo.com","author_url":"http:\/\/ammodotcom.libsyn.com\/website","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/20941949\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/114237932"}
