The author believes that if you really think that western countries do not attach importance to patriotism education, then you are really wrong. Take the United States as an example Although American media and individuals often scold the president and senior officials, few Americans will deny their country even if they can deny the president's ruling achievements. It can be seen that westerners or Americans are unpatriotic because you don't know the United States or the West. The simplest truth is that national flags can be seen everywhere in the United States, and some even joked that entering the United States is like entering a sea of national flags. Even if American protesters take to the streets to express their dissatisfaction, they will hold the national flag to demonstrate. This at least shows that the vast majority of ordinary Americans are very patriotic.

Someone must want to ask, where does the patriotism of ordinary Americans come from? In fact, this is the result of American or western contact with culture. Let's take America as an example. To some extent, Hollywood in the United States has acted as a patriotic education base. In those blockbusters made in Hollywood, all kinds of patriotic education are being carried out in an all-round way, but there are no slogans and no more patriotic propaganda. Therefore, patriotic education in the United States and the West has been exposed to western culture.

In addition, the United States and the West have been controlling the world for hundreds of years. To some extent, ordinary people in western countries have a strong sense of pride. It is because of their strength that the people's pride is strong. Therefore, even if there is no need for extensive publicity, people in these western countries will independently safeguard the interests of their respective countries. In their view, western countries are lighthouses of freedom or representatives of advanced culture. It can be seen from a person's oath to the American flag when he becomes an American citizen that it is obviously a patriotic education to declare his loyalty to the United States in this oath process.

In addition, due to cultural differences, it is difficult for us to understand the forms of patriotic education in the United States or western countries. In the eyes of westerners, patriotism is not spoken, but done. Take the United States as an example Patriotism education in the United States is to make people identify with their own values. It will make people believe that America is equal to freedom, and loving the country is equal to loving freedom. It can be seen that this is the most successful point of patriotic education in western countries, because they never use patriotic slogans, but pay more attention to internal patriotic education to make people patriotic ideologically.

Generally speaking, western countries also attach great importance to patriotism education, but they use different methods. The simplest truth has been said before. Even those blockbusters produced by Hollywood in the United States are good patriotic education themes, and these American blockbusters all contain American or Western values. People have received patriotic education while watching these blockbusters. This is the form of patriotism education in western countries.
