I'm not saying you shouldn't care for others - I'm saying you shouldn't choose who you care for on the basis of nationality. The people I care about are my family and friends - I want them to live in a successful society so by extension I care about that too. I would like that society to operate on the basis of the progressive values I ascribe.
In my team I have six people, three of whom are Spanish, one of whom is French, one of whom is British and born in Nigeria, and one of whom is white British. They are all wonderful people. Why should I prefer others over them on a quirk of birth?

Where do you draw the line? Your neighbours in your street or town, your cousins, your siblings, your children, your wife? Who should you care for over and above you?
I'm not taking this your a racist bullshit for wanting the best for British people. There's nothing wrong with a healthy amount of nationalism.
