Main problem is, young people are not paying attention to real political news, and get only what they see on Facebook & Instagram...which is mostly anti-Trump.
But I see hope once they start families and reality sinks in. And I am with you on the money issue. I paid their college but now I am holding onto mine.
There has to become an alternative. I am not sure what, but most young adults vocabulary and reading consists of 120 characters and all empty.
Someday they will hunger for knowledge.
If we allow social media monopolies to de-platform us, we lose elections. We can’t allow this. So far, we are, and it will get worse.
A poll just came out about the attitudes of millennials:
Half of those surveyed believe the United States is sexist (50 percent) and racist (49 percent).
American exceptionalism is on the decline — 46 percent of younger Americans do not agree that “America is the greatest country in the world.”
38 percent of younger Americans do not agree that “America has a history that we should be proud of.”
One in eight (14 percent) of millennials agree that “America was never a great country and it never will be.”
46 percent of younger Americans agree that “America is more racist than other countries.”
84 percent of Americans do not know the specific rights enumerated in the First Amendment.
19 percent of millennials believe that the American flag is “a sign of intolerance and hatred.”
44 percent of younger Americans believe Obama had a “bigger impact” on America than Washington, the nation’s first president.
In one sense, I regret that I won’t live long enough to see these self-loathing morons persecuted as a minority in the very country that they helped to “transform” into a tribal hellhole.
On the other hand, I’ll be happy to be dead before that comes to pass.
