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.
18% is still too high. As Obama’s pastor said, God damn America! Americans have very little to be proud of at this point.
Sadly, the USA lost its former glory. Slowly it’s marching towards to the inevitable end.
Its glory was always manufactured. There was never a shining city on a hill because it started with slavery, it still has it for prisoners, and there’s still a lack of parity between white and non-white people. And then there’s all the people America has killed in all of its pointless wars. Maybe you could make a piss-poor argument that Americans could be proud of the Constitution as a revolutionary founding document, but that’s about it. Even there, black people are 3/5ths of a white person.
America has always been a sham.
EDIT: You people downvoting me know it too. You just won’t admit it to yourselves. That’s why you’re downvoting and not giving any counter-arguments about America’s greatness. Shameful.
Don’t forget the massive amount of genocide U.S.A. has committed. Both on our own soil, and while playing puppet master in other countries (for their natural resources, or to instill govt US can control).
I’m sorry. USA has never been great. Maybe if you’re white and rich it is, but at what cost.
I’m American and this is crazy true. A lot of America is just propped up scams to make it look like they contributed a lot themselves, but there’s always a different story behind it.

I’m ready for our A.I. overlords to just take control at this point
