Students and other young people walking around the Georgetown area of Washington, D.C., struggled to say whether they were "proud" to be American ahead of 4th of July weekend.
Ophelie Jacobson, a reporter with Campus Reform — a conservative news site and higher-education watchdog — walked around Georgetown asking young people in the area whether they were proud to be American and whether the United States is the greatest country in the world.
"I feel sorry for those young students," Lily Tang Williams, an American citizen who immigrated from China, told "Fox & Friends" on Saturday in response to the video. "They remind me of my past, living in communist China."

Proud of a nation that embraces Marxism, whose government openly opposes the will of the people and works to destroy our national sovereignty, that rigs elections and forbids discussion of same, that teaches gay pride to preschool children, that promotes abortion as a health issue, that promotes hatred against WHITE people, that is dismantling its own history… I could go on; do you have all day? Meanwhile, the useful idiots repeat ideas put into their heads by our government-controlled "free" Marxist media and educational networks, whose propaganda aims to destroy the USA.

No surprise. Georgetown University is ultra-liberal. George Washington University is one step behind. American University is two steps behind.

All of these, when ask to offer alternatives, couldn't or waffled.
They're spouting classroom talking points.

Long past time to sign these liberals up for the Peace Corp and ship them to any third world hell hole for a year. Africa and Afghanistan come to mind. Let's see how they feel then!
Their parents must be so proud, especially the one from Georgia!

Maybe a good long stint in the US Armed Forces deployed to some third world excrement-hole country would let them see what much of the rest of the world is like and why so many people from other countries are trying to immigrate here. But, I doubt many these soft morons could hack boot camp.

I despise Biden's America.
That said, I am proud to stand in the one country in the world that has enshrined the potential for freedom - if we only reach out and grasp it. Our Constitution identifies things our government MAY NOT DO!!
Every other place on Earth, their Constitutions are filled with things their CITIZENS, may not do.
We just need to remind, forcibly, our government, that they are our servants, not the other way around.

I grew up in northern Virginia -BEFORE it got paved over!- and wound up studying in and graduating from the engineering program at George Washington U. Agree with the earlier L-Dotters..... Georgetown is Leftie-Elite land, and most of GW is one step behind. Could not stand most of the people in Dee Cee.
I'm happy to be about 1,000 miles FROM there, deep in Flyover Country, where people ARE Proud to be Americans!

FTA: ~~ "Some of the interviewees also said their college educations influenced how they view the United States.
"I'm from Georgia, and I never would have learned had I not taken those classes, just about the way the justice system works and zoning laws and I think college really opened my eyes to a lot of these things," one of the women in the video, who told Jacobson she went to American University in D.C., said."~~ .....Of course...'college educations influenced'.......How do we get out Country Back??....

Instead of educating these young people, colleges have indoctrinated and made them ignorant. Many people, though these numb skulls are an exception, realize that there has never been any country in the history of civilized man that has done so much for so many people. The United States is the greatest country on earth. It has enabled million of people to live in peace, have freedom and the opportunity to live their dreams. If you do not like the U.S. and can't feel patriotic, you can always move. The government will not incarcerate, murder you or hold you here, In other words, pick a better country and go.

#’s 5 and 6, no need to send them to some third world toilet. Just send them to Europe or the UK and let them depend on socialist medical care, undersized cars and household appliances, uncontrolled Muslim hordes and all the rest of Europe’s problems.

Decades of marxist professors outnumbering every other group by huge margins in college, same for marxit teachers in schools gave you this. A stupid lost careless generation of whiny losers.

Should have never ended the draft. Should have expanded it to include women. Society would be in much better shape today if they had.
