Young people don’t particularly care for the United States of America.

I wonder why?

Perhaps because America is racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, systemically blah blah blah blah BLAH.

American patriotism has faced a steep decline among young adults over the last decade, and now sits at a record low.

Why it matters: Pride in national identity is lowest among those 18-34, and illustrates the fracture between young Americans and older generations at a time of deep partisanship in the United States.

• In the most recent Gallup poll, Americans 55 and older were nearly 3 times more likely to be extremely prideful of their nationality than younger generations.

By the numbers: Overall, 39% of U.S. adults say they are “extremely proud” to be American in the most recent poll.

• Meanwhile, only 18% of those aged 18-34 said the same, compared to 40% of those aged 35-54 and 50% of those 55 and over.
• By comparison, in 2013, 85% of those aged 18-29 said they were “extremely” or “very” proud to be an American.

The big picture: The percentage of U.S. adults of all ages polled who say they are “extremely proud” to be American remains near a record low, per Gallup.

Look at those numbers. Almost a 60-point drop in the number of younger Americans who are extremely proud to be an American–all in 10 years.

Two factors seemed to determine your view of America, and you already know what they are: your political party and your age, which correlate fairly well.

Democrats are half as likely as Republicans to love America, and young people are even less likely than your average Democrat to care for our country.

We all know why the latter is the case, just as we have known that a large proportion of Democrats are in the “blame America first” crowd.

Public schools have been pushing anti-American propaganda for a while now, and that is the main force driving the young to disdain our country. The steady diet of anti-American propaganda–being pushed in government-run schools, no less–is having its intended effect.

Now think about who runs the public schools–it is that group of adults who tend to hate America more, Democrats.

This is a key part of the “long march through the institutions,” in which Leftists learned that their revolutionary aspirations would never be achieved on the streets, so they switched tactics and decided to take over the institutions that had been bulwarks of middle-class values.

The public schools, the government, academia, nonprofits, and even large corporations are all run by Leftists. They are bringing up the next generation on a steady diet of America-hating, and Gallup is showing that the strategy is working out pretty well for them.

Is it too late? Maybe, but the only way to find out is to fight back. If you don’t fight back, then it certainly IS too late.

That means abandoning the public schools and boycotting the worst of the corporations. Vote like your country depends upon it, and absolutely DEMAND that the government quit pouring money into the very nonprofits dedicated to destroying our country.
