Majority of liberal college students not proud to be American, favor socialism, NDSU survey finds
Campus Reform ^ | 21 June 2021 | Jackson Walker

Findings from a new North Dakota State University survey reveal that the majority of students identifying as liberal or liberal-leaning are not proud of America.

In response to the question “Are you proud to be American?” 57 percent of liberal identifying students answered ‘no’. This is in contrast to the 73 percent majority of conservatives who answered ‘yes’ to the same question.

This response was generated from a nationwide survey which asked over 400,000 students from more than 1,000 American college campuses questions about their feelings on a number of social and political issues. NDSU publicly announced the survey on Thursday.

Campus Reform reached out to NDSU professors John Bitzan and Clay Routledge, the survey designers, who explained their surprised reaction to the data.

“This is a surprising result. Previous work done by Clay Routledge shows that most Americans are proud to be American, regardless of political party, gender, race, religion, income, or employment status. We don’t know why college students answered in this way, but the differences between answers by college students and the general population on a very similar question seem to suggest something unique that is worth further exploration,” the professors jointly commented.

The political background behind the convoluted love story is my focus. :)

I recall reading an interview with John Wayne and he said that even he favoured liberalism and socialism when he was a young college student.

“””This response was generated from a nationwide survey which asked over 400,000 students from more than 1,000 American college campuses”””


The question I have is this: How many of the 400,000 students identified themselves as being liberal?

Did 90% identify as liberal or did 10% identify as liberal among the 400,000 surveyed?

There are plenty of socialist utopias to choose from, go live in one, and shorten your struggle.

Exactly!

Ask them to name a single such utopia - then ask them the name of the capital city of said utopia (hint: they know so little that they won't be able to even only name the capital).

Regards,

I’m grateful to be an American, but I’m not proud of the people who represent us at the Federal level.

Fun thing about being a clueless socialist wannabe in the sixties was it was just like about twelve people.

Amazing how the American Marxist revolutionaries of the 1960s were all pushing 30 (or older) and had trust funds/wealthy parents.

We don’t have free and fair elections.

So there’s that.

Put their azzes in two years of compulsary service and send their entitled, bratty butts to the ME, Africa or East Asia and then let them tell us what they think of America.

Maybe we can strap them to a chair and pin their eyes open like in “A Clockwork Orange” and make them listen to that Lee Greenwood song on repeat for 72 hours?

Send them to North Korea.

The fearless leader is getting ready to complete their first Soylent Green factory to solve the food shortage.

There is no question, groups like Sunrise, and others, are congressionally and IC connected, and part of a much larger hard left, multi-generational effort to take over the DoD and all agencies of government, and terminate and subjugate American society to global governance architecture.

It is likely hundreds of billions of dollars (at least), have been given over by Congress, to hard left groups and efforts globally, due to the internationally orchestrated CV-19 strategy.

Here is how it is done.

To control a people you must first control what they think about themselves and how they regard their history and culture. And when your conqueror makes you ashamed of your culture and your history, he needs no prison walls and no chains to hold you. John Henrik Clarke

Here is the result.

The philosophy of the schoolroom in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next generation. Abraham Lincoln
