According to the evidence, yes.  
Can you describe your nationalism?
Now what?
I'll tell you when you get there.

American?
Would you support tariffs?
Stopping immigration?
Support keeping race percentage the same in the US?
Support your country even when they do bad? 

For those questions give me a real-life example as well.

Can you please define "support"?

I'm sensing that the alternative right left paradigm seems to be something akin to fascism vs socialism in this case.  Do you have any comment when it comes to the alt-left?

Advocate or vote for it.

I haven't heard of such a word but if it was then it would be like the left equivalent of Richard Spencer trying to re-brand far left ideas. That would be communism. Anarchism is not really a left or right thing since it can be on both sides.

I'll have the questions repeated here again:
Would you support tariffs?
Stopping immigration?
Support keeping race percentage the same in the US?
Support your country even when they do bad?

I would support my country even when my countrymen are doing things I think are bad, but don't see myself advocating for the other things.

Why?
So you won't do anything if the US are involved with a genocide?

I am pretty sure that not doing anything isn't support.  Generally speaking, I don't think the United States has ever been at a point where it wasn't worth salvaging.  If it did get to that point, I view reconstruction to be preferable to abandonment.

The United States is made up of people. Those people are still there therefore if the people will it they can have public healthcare. 
What are values that you think that the United States has that you would like to keep?

The nation is made up of people, but the United States could be said to be more of a shared idea between the people.  Some call it an experiment.  The means by which public healthcare is contingent upon the will of the people who can therefore have it, would be a voluntary business venture distinct from, but not necessarily unrelated to the United States.  I say this in the sense of what happens to be logically consistent with your choice of words.  I'll have to think about the values.

If this was true why don't people have healthcare?

So basically if the people will it then it becomes part of the United States?

Rather distinct from it, in this case.

If the majority of the United States wants public healthcare why isn't it happening. You did say the United States is made up of people but are there voices being heard?

What do you mean?

Since what is right doesn't come from governments constructed by men to serve their people, there may be issues utilizing your philosophy in general.

So basically many people want public healthcare because they like the idea but the Republican party don't want that to happen. 
Are there voices being heard and why isn't their public healthcare?

I am not going to allow you to shift the conversation in a different direction. Remember when it was about Ben Shapiro being part of the alt-right then you decide to make it about yourself then you decide to change that conversation to about how nationalism or socialism are not on the left and right spectrum. You really do like changing the argument when you know you can't defend the previous ones.

Why did you contest what I said?
Surely you wanted to stay with what the forum post initially said but you replied to my statements.
Why is that if you wanted to talk about what the forum was about?
Without you I wouldn't have said more about the topic.

If the conversation is going to continue shifting from nonsensical ideologies to theoretical reality, idolatry is going to prove detrimental

So you can't defend your burden on where this conversation went? Good to know.
Ben Shapiro represents ideas. Did I once mention him by his features or something? I strictly talked about his ideas and how much he is like an alt-right figure.

I'm grasping but can't seem to get a grip on the point of this.  I got a kick out of it anyway, since that's basically my first post in this thread after reading the OP

Guess I consider this a failure by you. Can't defend Ben Shapiro, can't defend being a nationalist and can't defend whatever the last part of the conversation was about.

Okay, I am sorry for the confusion.  I have just been talking really.  I think of forums as a place for a collection of thought, and that's my general mentality, that is contributing to the forum.  Its of no particular concern to me to be persuasive in this setting.  If you receive a reply in a forum it is probably an archival note, because I am interested in what you have to say for some reason, or because I allot limited time to entertain questions and general interest (something of that general nature).

Didn't expect that. Sorry for what I did as well. So I would like you to answer questions before we leave this.
Does Shapiro hold views that mostly resembles the far-right which makes him a far right?
Do you understand if you support nationalism you are a part of the far right?
Do you understand people have ideas so basically making a distinction like what you did had no bearing in the conversation?

I would have to establish a better understanding of a right - left paradigm.  I find Ben Shapiro doesn't cater my taste, though what I have watched from him did not seem to be extreme.  
Do you understand if you support nationalism you are a part of the far right?
My understanding in the context I have, is that I am far right on a spectrum of mysterious origin which differs from American norms.
Do you understand people have ideas so basically making a distinction like what you did had no bearing in the conversation? 
I don't know what distinction this is referring to.

Far left is communism.
Far right is facism.
By the statements made is Ben Shapiro a far right figure.

My understanding in the context I have, is that I am far right on a spectrum which differs from American norms.
I take that as a yes.
I don't know what distinction this is referring to.

Even though earlier you said this:
