41% of American's have not learned a new fact about Russia since 1989
The median voter in America is around 50-53 years old. To a lot of those people, 2004 might as well be last week. Part of the reason that we seem cursed to re-hash the same trite news stories while the planet cooks to death and all of our infrastructure collapses is because we're ruled by people who never left the 80s/90s
Americans be like "yeah socialism doesn't work, also what the fuck is socialism"
America won the cold war but don't remember it. Big dementia energy. This is why Biden will win
Were these the only countries on this poll, or do less than 26% of Americans think Cuba and Vietnam are "more socialist than capitalist"?
I strongly suspect it's more a case of less than 26% of Americans know anything at all about Cuba or Vietnam.
How is this possible with the Vietnam war, Castro hate and cold war incidents with Cuba? I've seen something like this before and don't understand how American minds come up with Russia and Venezuela and not Cuba and Vietnam
I guess i shouldn't be surprised if schools don't talk about how the us lost and especially not that the commies won
Lol yeah I guess, I know why americans overestimate the threat and socialism of Russia and Venezuela but I'm a bit surprised that they don't know more about the Vietnamese, Korean or Cold war
I'm not saying they haven't heard of them, but I suspect it's because they're not big basically, as well as being 'important' only in the past.
Alternate title: "statistical proof a strong plurality of Americans are stupid"
Wait until you see the graph of how many American believe in evolution.
