> Poll: Fewer Americans Say Democracy Central To U.S. Identity https://theonion.com/poll-fewer-americans-say-democracy-central-to-u-s-identity/
A recent poll found that only 66% of Americans claim that a democratically elected government is important to the United States’ national identity, with those aged 18-29 reporting the lowest belief in U.S. democracy’s centrality at only 51%. What do you think?

I want to see the browser histories of said Americans because I am willing to bet there is a lot of porn (and very niche porn) and an online gambling account or two.

https://www.npr.org/2026/06/09/nx-s1-5780010/iowa-cancer-survivor-depression-anxiety-guilt-undiagnosed-mental
Gee, it would not be medical bankruptcy, loss of life savings, properties, assets, vehicles, and/or a house to beat the cancer in this shithole country that would make a survivor depressed and anxious, would it?
Why I say, something happens to me, let me die with dignity in a ditch.

Example of how gringos say one thing but then do the exact opposite.

Food for thought.
> What is Wrong with the American Left: the Abandonment of Class https://www.counterpunch.org/2026/06/08/what-is-wrong-with-the-american-left-the-abandonment-of-class/
FTA: "It is easy to declare that class no longer organizes politics from the comfort of a tenured chair where one’s own economic security is assured and the daily reality of wage labor is something read about rather than lived."
#BadEconomy #class #work #labor #ThisIsAmerica #democracy #socialism
The founding insight of the socialist tradition was that the central conflict of modern society is a relation, not a sentiment, between those who own the means of production and those who own only their labor. That relation, and not any catalog of identities, was the ground on which the left proposed to build a majority and to extend democracy into the economy. This frame, which even the revisionists who broke with Marx on tactics kept intact, the new new left has largely walked away from, and it did so with intellectual help.
