One could argue that most people in the world are driven to extremities, and so called crimes, in very large numbers, by want, poverty, toil, hunger, war, ill treatment, many things besides nationalism, many things besides genetic or culturally induced disorders then reducible to two, then reducible to one, nationalism.
It was never mainly the burden of freedom itself, of modern nationalism Whiggishly read back into Western history, in spite of The Grand Inquisitor's soliloquy I cite, that caused their mental distress, generally, at all.
I don't have special sympathy for them, but I can call a spade a spade.
Nonsense.
