National Anthems

I dislike national anthems and other displays of nationalism (see my post on flags). Tonight I watched the Eurocup and guess what the Spanish national anthem entailed? It pretty much covered the same stuff as the German national anthem. And even though I didn’t understand either one, I think it’s safe to assume that each talked about how great their countries are while also mentioning glory, honor, history, pride, etc. It’s the same material in just about any national anthem and I think it’s all pretty silly. That’s it. Good night.
