Patriotism is only a dirty word to people who want to force a country to adapt to their ways and abandon it’s own values. If they don’t like the freedoms and protections provided in that country quite frankly they can bugger off and see whether the grass is really greener elsewhere. They probably need their country more than it needs them anyway.
