In my opinion, fake nationalism is when people claim to love their country but only do so when it suits them. 

For example, they might only support their country during international sporting events or when there's a national disaster. But as soon as something goes wrong in their own country, they're the first to criticize and call for change. People who only love their country when it's convenient are fake nationalists. They're the ones who only wave the flag when their team is winning. They're the ones who only sing the national anthem when they're drunk. They're the ones who only care about their country when it's convenient for them.

True patriots love their country even when it's going through tough times. They don't just turn their back when things get tough. They stand by their country and their fellow citizens, even when it's not popular to do so. So, in my opinion, fake nationalists are those who only love their country when it's convenient for them. They're the ones who only care about their country when it's doing well. They're the ones who turn their back as soon as things get tough. True patriots are the ones who love their country even when it's not convenient for them. They're the ones who stand by their country and their fellow citizens, even when it's not popular to do so. This can take many forms. 

For example, some politicians may try to exploit nationalist sentiment for their own personal gain, or to advance a narrow and exclusionary agenda. In other cases, fake nationalists may seek to stir up ethnic or religious hatred, in order to justify discriminatory policies or violence. Fake nationalism can also be used to justify aggressive or expansionist foreign policies. In some cases, politicians may claim to be acting in the name of national self-defense, when in reality they are pursuing other goals, such as territorial expansion or regime change.

Sadly, fake nationalism is all too common in the world today. Here are just a few examples: 

- Politicians who exploit nationalist sentiment for their own gain, without any sincere commitment to the principles of nationalism. 

- Those who seek to stir up ethnic or religious hatred, in order to justify discriminatory policies or violence. 

- Those who use nationalism to justify aggressive or expansionist foreign policies. 

- Those who seek to undermine the legitimacy of democratic governments, in order to advance autocratic or authoritarian agendas. 

Fake nationalism is a dangerous and insidious force in the world today. We must be ever vigilant in exposing and opposing it, in all its forms.
