Lapham begins his book by recounting the history of American patriotism. He argues that the idea of patriotism has been corrupted over time, and that it is now used to justify all sorts of unpatriotic behavior. He points to the example of the Tea Party movement, which he says is more interested in promoting corporate interests than in protecting the country.

Lapham also takes aim at the left, which he says has become too focused on identity politics. He argues that the left has lost sight of its core values, and that it is now more interested in dividing people than in uniting them. He points to the example of the Black Lives Matter movement, which he says has been hijacked by a small group of radicals.

Lapham is particularly critical of the media, which he says has become a propaganda machine. He argues that the media is no longer interested in informing the public, but rather in promoting a particular agenda. He points to the example of Fox News, which he says is nothing more than a mouthpiece for the Republican Party.

Lapham concludes his book by calling for a new American revolution. He argues that the country needs to reject the false patriotism of the left and the right, and to embrace a new vision of patriotism that is based on truth, justice, and equality. He says that the future of American democracy depends on it.

Patriots Not Welcome is a must-read for anyone who is concerned about the future of American democracy. Lapham's insights are sharp and his analysis is incisive. He offers a sobering look at the state of American politics, but he also provides a glimmer of hope for the future.
