one lesson we might learn is that when a romantic ethonational project inevitably turns rancid, persecutes and murders members of other groups, the right response is not to exalt and reward whatever romantic ethnonational project might take hold among the victims.
romantic ethnonationalism is the problem, not the identity or virtue or lack of virtue of the groups that ethnonational movements construct in both positive and negative space.

@interfluidity Yeah, but it's a real problem how easy it is to bring people to see this as side vs. side instead of violent ideologies vs. civilians. And how hard to effect the opposite change.
