I debated many anarchists, left winger and right wingers too. They both hated patriotism.

That hated patriotism you speak of is actually blind worship of the criminally rich who Rob us and send us to die

Well, that's what they say, but they are wrong. Patriotism is about loving the country, the nation, the people, the land. Loving the government has nothing to do with it. Some definitions are pushing that, but that's wrong. The most patriotic people were the ones who fought against governments. Just think about George Washington, he was patriotic and he shot at the British. Or think about "localpatriots". Are they loving the town hall and the mayor? Or they just like their town, their people, their neighborhood?
Blindly loving the government is not patriotism, that's called statism (as far as I know). :)
