I think it means what the Oxford dictionary defines it means. You?

You don't think uncritical and nationalistic dismissal of the "enemy's" achievements as they must be both strong and weak has a place under "aggressive or exaggerated patriotism?"

I guess that just makes them a racist then.

As far as I can tell by their comment history they are American, so I don't know how is trusting France to be "nationalistic". Or "patriotic". Or aggressive, for that matter. Not a hint of militarisitc feeling either.

I might be racist too, because I don't trust what comes out of China as much as what comes from France. Or Germany. Or Switzerland. Or Japan. Or south Korea. Or Australia. Or India. Or Kenya. Yes, it must be racism.
