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.
I stopped at a mall one day to kill an hour before my A+ certification test. I was asked to do a movie trailer survey, but since I was checked out thinking of the exam questions the surveyor pretty much answered the questions for me.
The only other time I answered my phone was as a teen for some gas price survey in the 90’s as I craved ANY human interaction
I have a Pixel phone. It will screen unknown numbers and ask them why they are calling, and then pass on their response to me (text and audio). A vast majority just hang up when they hear the automated message. The few that don’t often end up being a recording that wasn’t sophisticated enough to know that it was being played to essentially another recording.
Edit: and by “unknown number” I mean “not in my contacts list”.
