That comparison can, should and must be expanded if extremist "patriots" do not even recognize their own constition they claim to defend.

Almost three years ago, on July 4, 2017, just in time for the national holiday on which America celebrates its independence, the NPR broadcaster decided to try something new. The declaration of independence had been read on the radio for decades on this day. Now it should be spread in 112 tweets via Twitter.
What followed was an uprising by Trump loyalists who hadn't recognized the quotes. NPR had a mission, called for revolution, spread fake news and propaganda, it was said indignantly, some speculated that NPR's Twitter account had been hacked.

I think for many of these self-proclaimed "patriots" their "patriotism" has not much to do with patriotism at all.
