Students from Georgetown and American Universities were asked if they felt proud to be American
Majority of students said they were not proud to be American with some adding they were 'embarrassed'

When asked if they could name a better country, none could

Destroying a nation from within is straightforward and an easy two-step process. They are interrelated.
1) Demoralize the People: Criticize everything. Keep criticizing until your opponent can no longer think clearly and defend or even define their beliefs.
2) Destroy Traditions: A nation is defined by their people, their history, and their traditions. Without traditions and standards everything is relative and interchangeable. The criminal is the victim and the victim the criminal. Marriage is a contract between two people, any two people. Identify is fluid. Commemorations of historic figures is a celebration of evil over good. The past itself is evil. Traditions are evil. Evil must be destroyed.
2nd and 3rd rate schools taking themselves into the ditch, not that some so-called first rate schools are not doing likewise.

What is amazing is that a tiny cadre of committed zealots can accomplish that. Think of the vast sweep of things needed for that to happen over many decades.
When I was an elementary school student in the 50s and early 60s, America was riding tall and everybody was proud of the country. We were flush with pride at having saved the world from tyranny. How did a handful of dedicated communist misfits gain sufficient traction to achieve what they did?
Actually, I’m having a little trouble being proud of America myself.
After letting the government fear-monger us into oblivion over a fake pandemic, and then letting the Democrats steal the election…
I’m not feeling very proud of my fellow Americans.
Just saying..
Leave. No one is stopping them. Certainly not me.
“When asked if they could name a better country, none could”
That makes them seem like imbeciles; doesn’t it? But they’re just saying what they think they’re supposed to say, which might be the prudent thing to do, under the circumstances. On the other hand, maybe it would have been smarter not to have become a Georgetown student in the first place.
so renounce us citizenship and move another country
And I’m embarrassed these ignorant students are Americans.
“When asked if they could name a better country, none could”
“Oh, is CHAZ not a country?”
And if you’re not proud to be an American, why attend American University??
As these twits this question: “If it’s so horrible here, why do we have hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants sneak into the US each year?”
I heard that AOC and Omar are burning US flags to celebrate today , why are they Congress Critters if the hate the US so much
Bogus article.
These kids go to Georgetown and American University-two of the most liberal colleges in the US.
Vast majority of young people love the US. I saw it at a 4th of July party yesterday with young people dressed in RW&B or waiving flags.
Yes there are young kids who hate the US but they are a samll minority.
Being Proud of your country doesn’t mean that you agree with everything that is going on in the country.
Has this been the down fall of all Republics? The young become convinced that everything that occurred before their generation was flawed and should be replaced with something better and they deserve to have everything they need for free and will just do whatever the government wants. (REF: Millennial generation).
If not for the Declaration of Independence we would still be subject to the King. How many of the practices listed in the Declaration of Independence should we submit ourselves to:
“He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public Good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing Importance, unless suspended in their Operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the Accommodation of large Districts of People, unless those People would relinquish the Right of Representation in the Legislature, a Right inestimable to them, and formidable to Tyrants only.
He has called together Legislative Bodies at Places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the Depository of their public Records, for the sole Purpose of fatiguing them into Compliance with his Measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly Firmness his Invasions on the Rights of the People.
He has refused for a long Time, after such Dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative Powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the Dangers of Invasion from without, and Convulsions within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the Population of these States; for that Purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their Migrations hither, and raising the Conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the Tenure of their Offices, and the Amount and Payment of their Salaries.
He has erected a Multitude of new Offices, and sent hither Swarms of Officers to harrass our People, and eat out their Substance.
He has kept among us, in Times of Peace, Standing Armies, without the consent of our Legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a Jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution, and unacknowledged by our Laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For quartering large Bodies of Armed Troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from Punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all Parts of the World:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us, in many Cases, of the Benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended Offences:
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an arbitrary Government, and enlarging its Boundaries, so as to render it at once an Example and fit Instrument for introducing the same absolute Rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with Power to legislate for us in all Cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our Seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our Towns, and destroyed the Lives of our People.
He is, at this Time, transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the Works of Death, Desolation, and Tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty and Perfidy, scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous Ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized Nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the Executioners of their Friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic Insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the Inhabitants of our Frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known Rule of Warfare, is an undistinguished Destruction, of all Ages, Sexes and Conditions.”
This is what happens when for 30+ yrs the communist professors were able to indoctrinate young folks to hate America..this is the consequence of that
Were they asked why America is the most popular country in the world for people of color to emigrate into?
