I think you're confusing pride and gratitude. I can have gratitude to live somewhere without pride that I live there or in my countrymen. I can even say "I love the place I live but hate the people in charge".
Of course, which is why I think it's daft to be proud of something that has extremely traits. Unilaterally endorsing a country is absurd. The things I mentioned are all prevelant throughout Australian culture. Shocked you are actually doubting me. Have you ever visited Australia?

Unfortunate that's your takeaway. You are no longer having talking in good faith, so I'm going to disengage now.
