Axios: Poll - Democrats proud to be American falls 30% since 2005

[Big Blitz]

To an all time low of 29% today.  
 

And common sense moral values we almost all shared just 20 years ago - gone.  
 

 

Americans are down on morality, family and country
 

Why it matters: Less than 500 days out from an election likely to feature a 2020 rematch few Americans want, extreme national pride is near a historic low.

 

Zoom in: The greatest demographic differentiator for expressions of national pride is party identification, according to Gallup.

 

A majority (60%) of Republicans still claim extreme national pride, but the share has fallen from a near-universal 86% 20 years ago — when patriotism peaked in the wake of the 9/11 attacks.

 

The last time a majority of Democrats said they were extremely proud to be an American was in 2013, months into President Obama's second term.

 

Between the lines: American iconography has long been a staple of political campaigns on both sides of the aisle. But for many Democrats, former President Trump's "America First" nationalism gave divisive new meaning to the red, white and blue.

America First is not divisive.  Trump may be. 
 

But America First is not.  
 

Media - like Axios - want that to be the case.  

 

Congrats China!  
 

 

Bonus!

 

Over 25% of men over 40 - never been married.  Up from SIX PERCENT in 1980.  
 

Less kids.  More abortion.  More feminazis.  More emasculated males especially whites who are directly and indirectly told there is no place for them in society and deliberate sexual confusion and distortion of social norms (biology) especially to our youth - all adds up to a road to self destruction.  And a pathetic miserable country.   
 

 

Being proud of it is toxic after all.  It’s code for ULTRA MAGA!

Funny how ditz left this important part of the article out - and it was no accident:

 

Crisis of morality

 

A record high 50% of Americans view the state of morality in the U.S. as "poor" — with the share rising across both major political parties and independents, according to Gallup.

 

Why it matters: Culture war issues and the debate over abortion rights are at the forefront of everyday American politics and the 2024 presidential campaign.

 

New focus on systemic racism after the murder of George Floyd in 2020 — and the subsequent backlash from many Republicans — has helped drive a spike in concerns about racism and discrimination.

 

The so-called "war on woke" — led in large part by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and aggressively promoted by Republicans at the national, state and local levels — has spurred a record number of bills targeting LGBTQ rights in the last few years, according to the ACLU.

I see it all over my neighborhood.  Many neighbors I know are dems who used to fly the flag no longer do.

 

TDS + falling prey to marxist propaganda can do that to a person.

[Boatdrinks]

Open borders, liberal media, daft ,vapid Gen Zers , anti USA school system , Democrat Party for whom abortion and LGBTQ are a religion… is it any surprise that this is the result? It shouldn’t be , as it is the intended outcome. First step on the road to Marxism. 

[Over 29 years of fanhood]

Too many people buy into the false dichotomy…

 

differences of opinion aren’t considered healthy discourse but instead existential philosophy.

Lol low info Bill - the decline in morality (Americans that see it as a poor) driven by Republicans is almost exclusively due to Alphabet Extremist policies gone wild.  
 

Axios wants to frame bills passed in states by “anti woke” (anti communist) leaders as “anti” is of course, absurd.  Unless you support pornography in elementary schools disguised as trans story hour.  
 

I found this part of the story the least significant.  As important as it is.  
 

 

I’m not sure what how you’d like to analyze that part of the poll or why you’d suggest I’m “leaving it out.”  There are 8 other threads on the Flag mafia.  
 

 

Democrats are not proud of this country unless they’re in power - the exception under Biden is largely due to since 2020, they’ve been inundating the country, schools, and Hollywood with nothing but anti American communist Maoist garbage.

MAGA pride:

 

Hard to be proud of a country when the GQP prioritizes guns over people.

 

[BillStime]

Hard to be proud of a country where far right MAGA activist Supreme Court justices codify discrimination and hate into law.
 

Funny how these MAGA nutters can’t see how their policies and leaders are contributing the morale decline in this country.

 

These idiots want nothing but hate and division.

Hate is common everywhere.  Hate is easy.  

 

Which side is more likely to forgive or look past any prior meaningless perhaps texts or jokes from say 10 years ago?   
 

Libs are incapable.  They will eat their own if it means preserving their virtue signaling religion of wokeism.  And if possible they will erase or cancel you.  You have a moron right here in Bill that wants the Catholic Church to cease and desist.  
 

But sure post all your pics of 300 protesters that were escorted in to the Capital.    
 

No, conservatives boycotting Bud Light is not the same as creating a hostage situation by forcing one of your relief pitchers to apologize for re tweeting something about Target’s grooming section.  

 

 

Nationalism or populism is what these morons think is going to tear apart a country.  
 

In Europe they’ve been saying this since Brexit.  
 

Look at all those MAGA nutters burning France today …………….

👆🤡

 

Look at every group these freaks support.

 

You have @Big Blitzprotecting and sponsoring a global pedo network - aka - the Catholic Church and then Bonnie defending every racist and far right group from Moms of Hitler to Unite the Right.

 

MAGA isn’t meant to bring America together - it’s meant to unite white supremacists, bigots, homophobes and misogynists.

That’s your vision for Make America Great Again.

 

Just look at every thread started by Ditz and Karen Psyop.

 

These people hate themselves so much it oozes out of them every day here.

 

And they wonder why half the country can’t stand them and what they represent.

You’re an absolute buffoon.  
 

No political is void of any of those types of people.  NONE.  
 

And perfect unity is impossible - you can cite a problem with literally everyone and spin it as hate.  
 

And - show me the poll where over half the country wants the book “I’m Jack but maybe I’m Jane” in their kids 3rd grade classroom.  
 

 

Every Democrat policy is freaking grounded in ACTUAL DIVISION 

 

Affirmative action 

Open Borders for states that aren’t budgeted to handle the incompetence 

Identity politics 

Anti Religion - you know, this country was only founded on your freedom to freely worship it - you idiots will try to bring “no prayer” zones here to if you could.  Bake that cake!

I dunno, maybe its just me, but you don't exactly sound proud to be an American yourself ...

[The Frankish Reich]

Meanwhile ... I'm more on board with this optimistic, pro-America sentiment:

 

Every generation launches a new competitor to America and the people who don’t like capitalism and America’s individualist, free market economy trumpet that now the American way is being left in the dust. In the progressive era it was the Germans (how did that work out?), then it was the Russians (remember Sputnik?), then it was the Japanese (buying up Rockefeller center! the horror!), then it was the Chinese (look at those high speed rail lines!). My message to Americans is to double down on America. Double down on immigration, entrepreneurship, innovation, building for tomorrow, free markets, free speech and individualism and America will take all new competitors as it has taken all comers in the past. The world should be more like America not the other way around.

Implicit in Make America Great Again is exactly what Big Blitz said -- the idea that America today is horrible, sucks big time, has no future. I guess I disagree. We've got problems, but in many respects no other country can compete.

I don't understand why certain posters here think that a dozen or more states are run by commies, yet they think that the American flag, representing the unity of the 50 states, should be celebrated. Some of those posters probably favor reducing the number of stars on the flag to the 30 red states only.
