"Blind patriotism" is a tautologous phrase. It's like saying there's a difference between racism and *blind* racism. Anyone who subscribes to the view that there is any significant commonality, good or bad, between the people of an arbitrary geographical region is an idiot; even more so if they hold strong feelings regarding their or anyone else's "nationality".

Not quite. There is a often a difference of ideology between peoples of different regions. While it is ridiculous to venerate a flag like an idol, you cannot overlook the fact that as people regroup by geographic locations, one people might cultivate a different set of beliefs than a people who lives on a different continent.
Yes, I know there's much more to that, but I'll keep it short for now.

Yes, you can generally very broadly and vaguely apply a set of trivial characteristics to the population of a general area, but that in itself isn't anything to value or celebrate. And there are far more valid ways to group and distinguish people that have nothing to do with the country in which they were born.
