"We are all one people, so why do you want and insist on the nationalism of us against them?" You are putting words in my mouth - "..us against them". Hey, celebrate diversity! This alone is reason enough not to be like everyone else. Some cultures are preconditioned for certain styles of government. We should all recognize this and allow it, so long as your one world view of things is not unjustly imposed on anyone.

What you believe about global warming, philosophy, especially what you misconstrue from Plato and Aristotle is a religion of your devising that has no basis in any reality or science except your own. You are free to continue worshiping at your own expense but for the protection of the rest of us you will be denied access to public money to prop-up your faith based beliefs. The US is a constitutional republic, your notions may be better suited to an aristocracy such as Swaziland. They would love to hear more about Plato and his pro-slavery ideas and might makes right stance. en.wikipedia.org
