SHOCK POLL: Half under 21 think Obama had ‘more impact on America’ than George Washington
November 28, 2018
By Victor Skinner
 

Nearly half of young Americans think the country is more “racist” than other nations, while one in five millennials view the U.S. flag as a “sign of intolerance and hatred.”

FLAG, a civics education nonprofit, highlighted the startling state of anti-Americanism in younger generations through a recent survey of 1,078 Americans in coordination with the polling firm YouGov. The “State of American Patriotism Report,” released Tuesday, “starkly reveals that younger Americans (under 38 – Gen Z and Millennials) are becoming unmoored from the institutions, knowledge, and spirit traditionally associated with American patriotism.”

Some would argue they’ve becoming unmoored from reality.

That's because they think George Washington invented the peanut.

He did.  He set it back 200 years with his social programs.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

90% under 21 couldn't tell you what the three branches of government are.

That's why I made sure my kids watched all of the "Schoolhouse Rock" videos.


Sorry...

This pretty much explains how poorly the schools are doing at educating the children.

Indoctrination is not education,it's brainwashing.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

From the article:
Nearly half of young Americans think the country is more “racist” than other nations, while one in five millennials view the U.S. flag as a “sign of intolerance and hatred.”

It's all "working according to the plan...."
