> The problem is that this line of thought automatically devalues everything not from your own country if it can be compared to something from your own country. No. Valuing something does not automatically devalue everything else. If I say "I like German food", I'm not implying that I'm not liking Korean food or something. People really are capable of liking more than one thing. In consequence I don't see any problem with loving your country, as long as you don't take the step of hating or devaluing everything else. |

Except, that's not what the original quote said.
> I am a proud German, I love Germany above everything, and I do everything in my power to improve the image of Germany.
I am a proud German, I love German food above everything, and I do everything in my power to improve the image of German food.
Apples to oranges.
