One-in-five U.S. Millennials see American flag as sign of ‘intolerance’ and ‘hatred
The National Sentinel ^ | December 4, 2018 | National Sentinel

(National Sentinel) Warning Sign: A new survey found that roughly 20 percent of American Millennials have been brainwashed into believing that the U.S. flag is a symbol of “intolerance and hatred.”

According to the “State of American Patriotism Report,” which was designed to assess the patriotism and historical knowledge of young Americans, also found that six in 10 Millennials (ages 22-37) actually believe the United States is racist and sexist.

As bad as these results are, it gets worse: The survey results indicate that love for country is declining among young Americans in general.

For instance, nearly half — 46 percent — of young Americans between the ages of 14 and 37 did not agree with the statement, “America is the greatest country in the world.” Also, more than half — 53 percent — say the U.S. is a sexist country, while 54 percent said our country is racist.

The survey was conducted by the public opinion firm YouGov for the Foundation for Liberty and American Greatness (FLAG), a non-profit organization that educates Americans “about the values and principles that make our nation exceptional,” CNSNews.com reported.

FLAG founder Nick Adams said he was “totally unprepared” to see the “epidemic of anti-Americanism” that was revealed in the survey.

It’s no wonder really. Everything is racist and sexist according to the left. Everything! They can’t escape the rhetoric. If I were inundated with all this falsehood, I might be thinking the same.

Ah, but the little sissies would never move anywhere else, what with foreign ATM fees on Daddy’s bank account and difficulty plugging in their iPhone chargers.

There are flights leaving every day. They should get going.

Might I suggest Venezuela? And they must not return from their Socialist paradise. I also hear Honduras is nice.

Hmmm, that perfectly aligns with the data that 1 in 5 Millennials need to be slapped around a little (figuratively and perhaps literally). Science, I haz it.

To receive taxpayers dollars schools must be required to teach American History at several levels using textbooks approved by the Veteran of Foreign Wars (VFW). Also require courses on American government (civics) and pass a test on the Constitution before receiving diploma.

If they refuse, don’t give them money. To be the recipient of taxpayers money can and should mean you jump some hoops.

They have never known suffering

Don't blame Millennials. Blame the generations who built the world they grew up in.

Every societal and fiscal disaster that America has gifted their offspring was put in place by politicians elected by Boomers and the laughably monikered "Greatest Generation" yet we blame Millennials for coping how they can under them.

Did Millennials vote for economic policies that closed down every factory and shipped every manufacturing job to China while importing millions of slave laborers to drive down wages for the few blue-collar jobs that remained? Did Millennials vote for policies that drove the cost of a college degree into the six figures, comparable to that of a starter home, while mandating that every job that paid over $10 an hour require one? Did Millennials create a health insurance program that bloated treatment costs so sky-high that a child breaking an arm could bankrupt a family?

Honestly, I'm surprised every Millennial isn't a blood-red communist considering the giant economic turd sandwich they've been given by their parents and grandparents to eat. Mercifully, Republicans still have the edge with the white Millennial vote so there's hope yet for a few of them.

Not just teach it. But students have to pass a test that they know it. Just like Math and English to graduate from HS.
