Your Definition
A mindset which conflates the the two common definitions of nationalism. There are two definitions of nationalim in the Oxford English Dictionary. On the one hand there is the nasty kind of national exceptionalism prevelant in 1930's Europe. On the other hand there is the more benign kind, a simple desire for your country to be independent. 'mashionalists' see no distinction between the two. Either due of a simple lack of nuance in their thinking or as a wilful means of opposing a political movement they dislike using obfustication of language. Also: Lack of distinction between 'ethnic' and 'civic' nationalism. Mashionalism is a is often used to smear supporters of national independence as racist, bigoted or fascistic.
