Actually, screw Thanksgiving.
So the whole family togetherness and eating good food thing is nice. But the idea behind the Holiday? Total bullshit. When did Pilgrims and Indians ever sit down together and share a Thanksgiving meal? The only thing the Pilgrims did for the Indians was sell them Alcohol, guns, and trade them blankets filled with small pocks. I don’t understand why America still pushes these fake stories. It’s one thing to want a day where we reflect on all the things we have to be thankful for. That’s what Thanksgiving should be represented as. Now some bullshit to throw a little sugar on top of a genocide of an entire race of people. Full native Americans make up less than ONE percent of the people in this world.
