Why can't British children be patriotic like these Americans ?

the words are here so you can join in:

Cowardice (are you serious?)
Apologies for freedom (I can't handle this!)
When freedom rings (answer the call!)
On your feet (stand up tall!)
Freedom's on our shoulders (USA!)
Enemies of freedom
Face the music (come on boys, take 'em down!)
President Donald Trump knows how to make America great
Deal from strength or get crushed every time

[Chorus]
Over here (USA!)
Over there (USA!)
Freedom and liberty everywhere
Oh say can you see
It's not so easy
But we have to stand up tall and answer freedom's call

USA (USA!)
USA (USA)
We're the land of the free and the home of the brave, USA!
The stars and stripes are flying
Let's celebrate our freedom
Inspire proudly freedom to the world
A merit to (USA!)
American pride (USA!)
It's attitude, it's who we are, stand up tall
We're the red, white and blue
Fiercely free, that's who!
Our colours don't run, no sir-ee

If this is patriotism, I'd rather not be a patriot.
Looks like something out of North Korea

Like the British muslims who serve this country and English people and the economy and the ones that are and were in the army?

Because most Brits understand the corruption within the government and don't want to swear any bull**** loyalty. Obviously the average Donald trump supporter has an IQ of below 100 anyway so it doesn't matter to you 'muricans.

You'd definitely be a Trump supporter if you were American haha

Actually you might be regardless!
As an American who has lived half his adult life outside the US, I feel deeply embarrassed at such naked, ignorant jingoism. American children are brought up being told America is the best place to live and even that it has the best society that ever existed, that we are somehow unique like that "city on the hill" that one of our early Puritans proclaimed. It is ridiculous. In contrast, I think European children are more aware of their history and the limitations of their societies, all with a sense of what it means to endure and re-make oneself.
