If you want to make America great, be a great American.
[I’m an ‘ok’ American]

Agreed. I just want to wrestle the word “American” away from the far-right so that other people who are Americans can use it too.

Being a great American should be indistinguishable from being a great human being. Same as being a great man, a great woman, a great anything.

A great Deepak should be a great human. A great Kenneth should be a great human. I never understood nationalism because I don’t understand why nations ‘compete’.

That’s true. To me, that’s a misuse of the word “great” because we’re not our countries of origin. We’re humans who happen-to-be in particular nations. I don’t understand how a quality of nationhood can be imbued in a person.
