no, those people are acting on their own version of patriotism.Groups of people, especially with conflicting interests clash and fight.
When nations do it, the motivation for some of the people is often "patriotism".
But, such violence is not limited to Patriots, and Patriots and Patriotism does manifest in other ways.
For Wilde to smear all Patriots by claiming that it is a "virtue of the vicious" is him being an asshole and a fool.
In today's world, plenty of people are being increasingly violent, and they are not Patriots.
Indeed, they are targeting Patriots.
You seem to have a blind spot an can only recognize your personal feelings as patriotic and regard those with different opinions as unpatriotic.
