Because I’m tired of seeing garbage opinions go unchallenged in echochambers.

And if you’re *already* retreating to “why do you even care” it’s clear you haven’t a coherent retort.

Anyway Happy Thanksgiving! I had a great time eating turkey with family 🥰

are you illiterate? I did not say holidays have no meaning.

I wrote that YOU specifically can’t define a holiday’s True Meaning for other people. A tedious (and shallowly researched) “well akshually” about the holidays origin does not in fact determine its present day moral correctness.

It takes true ignorance and breathtaking arrogance to prescriptively assign meaning to other people’s actions - as if you are the only arbiter of what Thanksgiving can ever mean to anyone.

So the goalposts have moved from being concerned about the origins of Thanksgiving to handwringing over later tacked-on associations with the pilgrims?

Why can’t we ever reclaim holidays? Is Sin suddenly a real thing that applies to ever changing cultural events?

Holiday origins are basically trivia, as unimportant as the etymology of words. We can enjoy Easter without worrying if the original pagans that celebrated fertility were morally compromised.

Find real things to care about.

There is nothing wrong with celebrating “general blessings” by participating in a yearly feast with your closest friends and family.

It’s fine. It’s actually beautiful.
