They're so patriotic, they even support an insurrection to overthrow the US government.
Yes, and they call themselves Patriots for doing that, why?

Every single authoritarian movement has described themselves as patriots. Every terrorist group has described themselves as patriots.
Why does baseball and hockey get sucked into it then?

Nationalism needs an identity.

They clearly don't love America.

They love a particular idea of America, that doesn't exist. An America where only white, heterosexual christians live. That's not America.

They see America as an identity, not an ideology or some concept of “good”. I’d like to think that America is forever, even long after our nation is partitioned, conquered, or “evolves” into something “not American”.
