As this year goes on, I don’t think either side is going to be too happy with losing the election. The Democrats have been signaling all year they are willing to do anything to steal this election.

His defeat? When and where have you seen action taken by the right.

The south has been and IS being stripped of its heritage without firing a shot.

Now it’s happening everywhere and besides a few scant counter protesters showing up here and there, I see no evidence that our side is fighting back.

Don’t confuse tough talk on chat boards for reality.

That too but it’s also what’s on the internet and the programs they watch.
Propaganda has real world consequences and parents ignoring it leaves their kids at the mercy of wolves.

If President Trump stood up and said AMERICA SUCKS you would see an outpouring of nationwide support for the flag and patriotism would be at an all time high. You would suddenly go to prison for not saluting the flag.

No it’s not.

Who would have thought higher education would be the death of the country?

Well I guess a lot of people since “intellectuals” have always hated republics and capitalism.

Why would young Americans be patriotic.....they've been educationally/Hollywood brainwashed into seeing themselves as ‘Citizens of the World”

Globalists are not by definition Nationalists and you have to be a Nationalist to be Patriot. They are synonyms of each other.

Alas, even on Free Republic we have a huge contingency of globalist GOP Free Traitors™.

At one time, I’d didn’t get too upset if a Democrat won the White House. Back in 1976 I voted for Gerald Ford. But Jimmy Carter won. No big deal. Carter was a bit weak. But he was also a Navy veteran, and a patriot.

Then something weird happened to the Democrat party. Now they field a collection of socialists, race panderers, and weirdos. As you noted, the days of reasonable, patriotic Democrats are gone. And they ain’t coming back.

I don’t think the young Americans know how to fight against the deludge of propaganda out there......esepcially as the lefts majority controls preventing that.

I for one don’t believe anything about this poll. You can only believe something you believe. I do believe that all this polling is meant to push a narrative over a period of time. It is meant to shape public opinion. Pure junk is what it is.

I just hope I’m gone when Sharia is the law of the land. Although, the homos will be forced back into the closet, if they don’t want to take dives off of high buildings.

Well, there was the Michigan Capitol house. The left knows for now not to attack such people directly, but one day one of them will make that mistake.

A civil war happening instead of having the rule of law restored without such a war is always more desirable. But Trump is not the spark and never has been, and such a war would still happen with Biden in power—how could it not?

Mommy and Daddy turned over the education of their kids to Uncle Sam decades ago.

Now Auntie Fa has come along and the two have spawned a legion of self-absorbed little demons that shriek and spin like Tasmanian Devils when they don't get their way.

Have a nice life, kids.

Right! And unfortunately we are losing the propaganda war.

Take Yahoo for example. Yahoo offers a decent and free email service. Lots of people use it. But when you sign up for that email, you also get Yahoo’s daily news briefings. And they are very, very clever propaganda pieces.

It’s not “Trump speaks about (whatever).”
It’s “Trump issues a divisive statement about (whatever)”.

Folks are getting brainwashed, and they don’t even know it.

That’s a very insightful observation.
Many of Bowie’s songs have excellent lyrics, some rather meaningful for anyone.

I have Yahoo email and no propaganda first page. I bookmarked the sign in page not the opening page. I tried to tell my republican women officemates that and found that they wanted the daily propaganda. A lot of people do.

Stoners and slackers increase at the same rate who knew.
Just more people for the plantation owners.
