It´s worth saying patrioism can be a good thing ( similar to religon imo ) makes people bond and work together, but often it turns to elitism we have seen what that can turn into.
What is the downside to elitism about your country?
It´s a thin line imo whereas nationalism can strengthen you elitism leads towards destruction shutting out other people ( foreigners ) - creates a "we and/against them" scenario. I really can´t see where elitism would be good the nazis always comes to my mind.
Facism does not always require the purifying of a nation.

There are very few countries in the world that I would honestly be proud of. It's hard when nearly every country has done something to be ashamed of.
