Leftists Push To Rename Thanksgiving “Truthsgiving”

Every Thanksgiving it’s something with these people. It hasn’t been as bad as usual, since the Credentialed Media has been focusing on the defending Hamas and smearing Jews and Israel, but, the stories are there

Liberal columnists call for Americans to ‘decolonize Thanksgiving,’ promote ‘Truthsgiving’

Several online publications and social media users are urging Americans to reconsider the Thanksgiving holiday while alleging the holiday is a symbol of “colonization” and “racism.”

“Let’s drop the lie of Thanksgiving and begin a Truthsgiving,” a social media post from The Nation read this week that linked to an article with the headline: “Should America Keep Celebrating Thanksgiving?”

In the article, author Sean Sherman, argues that Americans should “decolonize Thanksgiving.”

“For many Americans, the image of Thanksgiving is one of supposed unity: the gathering of ‘Pilgrims and Indians’ in a harmonious feast,” Sherman, a member of the Oglala Lakota Nation, explains. “But this version obscures the harsh truth, one steeped in colonialism, violence, and misrepresentation. By exploring the Indigenous perspective on Thanksgiving, we can not only discern some of the nuances of decolonization but gain a deeper understanding of American history.”

I wonder how many Modern Socialists read it and were like “yeah, you know, yeah, I’m down for that”? And then went to Thanksgiving dinner? Took that holiday pay day off? Remember, these are the same people who wined about a Native American on Land O Lakes butter and got her removed (and got Aunt Jemima removed from the syrup so hard they changed the name altogether). Perhaps they do not really like Indians, hence forcing the name change for the Redskins and Cleveland Indians, and going after the Braves, Chiefs, Seminoles, etc?

Sherman writes that Americans, in order to avoid the “tremendous distress to those of us who are still reeling from the trauma” of the Pilgrims landing in America, by promoting the “nutritional and culinary diversity” of Native American foods and “centering the Indigenous perspective and challenging the colonial narratives around the holiday.”

GTFO of here. Seriously? These people are wackadoodle enough to have trauma from something that happened in 1620?

“It’s starting to sound like ‘decolonization’ just means ruining any and every tradition and fun time, to be replaced by the narcissistic, jargon-filled rantings of 20-somethings whose infallible knowledge of the world is informed by TikTok,” writer and podcaster Meghan Murphy responded on X.

In fairness, there are lots of older moonbats who think the same way. But will still take part in Thanksgiving.

    Given that the driving motivation and the selling point itself behind leftism is envy, it’s no wonder these historically illiterate cretins seek to trash Thanksgiving year after year.

    A little gratitude in these morons would start to solve a lot of their problems, after which they might stop causing so many for the rest of us.

    So many on the left are just so miserable in their own lives that they feel it necessary to try to ruin things for other people.

    “Truthsgiving”? How about this truth: were it not for the conquest, dispossession, forced relocations, and extermination of the Indians, probably none of us here today would be alive.

    How about this one? I am alive today because 36,634 American soldiers gave their lives for me to be here.

    What’s that? If it was not for the Korean War, the chances that my mother and father would have met in Tokyo in 1951 would have been virtually zero. My father was with the Army Corps of Engineers and my mother was a WAC working in General of the Army Douglas MacArthur’s headquarters.

    Of course, there’s more. There were 407,316 American soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines who were killed in World War II, a war we entered only because Japan attacked us, and without our conquest of Japan, General MacArthur would not have had a headquarters in Tokyo at all.

      According to my Dad, he was on a troop ship headed for the ground invasion of Japan in WWII. Hiroshima and Nagasaki made that unnecessary, so he ended up in Korea working logistics.

      While we can appreciate the suffering of the Indians, it makes little sense to beat ones chest over events from centuries ago.

    “The white man presents an image of superiority even when he isn’t conscious of it. And, superiority excites envy.”

    the left, which has accomplished nothing during its brief history on the face of the earth other than worse and massive deaths and genocides lives and breathes envy. All one needs to do is look at the comments made here by H and Elwood and how they’re constantly comparing red states to blue States and white people to black people and different religions everything. The funny thing is they are the most immoral and amoral people that have ever lived in the history of mankind yet they think they’re so damned wonderful. If they weren’t so dangerous they’d make me laugh. The good news is we know exactly what they are.

    A good example would be Joe Scarborough yesterday on TV ranting and raving about how if trump is elected he’s gonna murder people and execute people and put people in prison and yet it seems the Democrats are the only ones who are trying to imprison their political enemies. Their ability to project their weaknesses and their fears on everybody else is amazing to watch. What’s even more amazing is they don’t even realize it.

      LGB quoted:

      “The white man presents an image of superiority even when he isn’t conscious of it. And, superiority excites envy.”

      If “The white man presents an image of superiority even when he isn’t conscious of it,” is that saying that non-white people perceive white men as superior?

      • L.G.Brandon!, L.G.Brandon! says:

        Obviously, or they wouldn’t be beating the doors down to every weight nation on the planet they get in. You don’t see lines of people trying to get into Peru or Bolivia do you? How about Angola Somalia?

        I want the nations conquered and settled by white people because that’s where the money is. Because that’s where the technology is. Because that’s where the culture and societal security is.

        That’s why white nations send all these multi colored nations money, doctors, healthcare, technology, food, water, and everything else they have worth having.

        Even in our own country do all the rich leftists wanna move into ghettos? Are there lines avoid people trying to move into the barrio areas of major cities? Do we have to write “white lives matter” on the streets of our cities to remind everybody that we exist? Are blacks and Browns Muslims and communists marching around trying to get the money off of blacks and Browns and communists and Muslims? Of course not. Those people are losers to begin with. And rather than do something about it and lift themselves up they run around protesting and bitching about whites.

        So although it’s not popular to say “that non-white people perceive white men as superior” they shout it from the rooftops by their actions, by their demands to be given extra benefits, special privileges, and now even reparations. Reparations for what? Losing the battle of civilization?

        Then you have your guilty white leftists that hate everything they are so much they wanna give everything we have away. Everything our ancestors and we fought for they wanna give away or turn into garbage.

        If you don’t protect what belongs to you sooner or later it belongs to someone else that includes everything you own that includes our country. You won’t protect our country you won’t protect our heritage you won’t protect our culture you won’t protect our race. You are worthless as a man, as a patriot as an American. You’d have been better off not even born. And so would we. Sounds like our left wing radical commenters here.

        You added nothing to this world by being born, you added nothing to our nation by being an American. When you die nothing will be diminished nothing will be lessened and no one will even care.

        Your entire life has been projected into walking away from God and your country and your race and hating everything that could have made a difference in your life. You’re a hollow man. You’re a man who thinks more of himself than anyone else thinks of you. And that makes you a loser.

        But it makes you a fantastic communist. A person always complaining about what someone else has but not willing to do the hard work to get it yourself you just wanna take it. You’re unwilling to fight the battles, to plow the fields, to build the skyscrapers, but you’re certainly willing to live in the freedom the battle secured, to eat the food from the fields that were plowed, and to live in the houses and the buildings that were built by other men.

        It’s impossible for white men to hide their privilege. What white men call their superiority is really the power of privilege. It wasn’t so many decades ago that white men could kill blacks with impunity.

        Multi-multi millionaire comedian Chris Rock:

        “Shit, there ain’t a white man in this room that would change places with me. None of you. None of you would change places with me, and I’m rich!! That’s how good it is to be white. There’s a white one-legged busboy in this room right now that won’t change places with my black ass. He’s going, “Nah man, I don’t wanna switch. I want to ride this white thing out.”

        We get it. Whites in America “feel” superior to non-whites. Your primary fear is that you’ll lose your superior station, your privilege. First hired, last fired! Welcomed in stores and neighborhoods! More wealth, more pay! All because you’re “superior”, LOL.

        Where blacks are allowed to compete equally, e.g., sports and entertainment, they win! For decades black men weren’t “smart enough” to be NFL quarterbacks, NBA point guards or PGA golfers, lol. Hitler constructed the 1936 Olympics in Berlin to demonstrate the superiority of white men! Ohio State U student Jesse Owens said, “Hey Adolf, hold my stein!”, LOL. In America, Owens couldn’t live on campus, couldn’t stay in hotels with or eat meals with his “superior” white teammates and couldn’t even get a scholarship. Besides school and training he worked to pay for college. And in Berlin he rubbed Hitler’s nose in the stench of white supremacy.

    Isn’t it interesting how those who deny anything such as “truth” always claim to have the truth?

  7. L.G.Brandon!, L.G.Brandon! says:

    Yep. And how those with the morality of a sewer rat think they are the most compassionate and open minded of all humanity. Meanwhile their compassion extends only to the things that they love and agree with. Kinda like their belief in free speech. You can have free speech as long as they agree with it. Or how justice is what they say it is. And they can’t tell the difference between a riot and an insurrection, nor an election and a coup. But it’s not a coup if they do it.

    I also find it interesting how they are involved in sexual immorality of all kinds be it homosexual, rape, grooming, human trafficking or whatever in far greater orders of magnitude than anyone else and yet they just don’t see it. By the way, where is Jeffrey Epstein’s client list? Exactly who is the left protecting?

    • Elwood P. Dowd says:

      What do you consider “sexual immorality”? Is sex outside of marriage “sexual immorality”?

      • James Lewis says:

        Chicken Litle:

        ” Is sex outside of marriage “sexual immorality”?

        Ever heard of the Ten Commandments?

        • Elwood P. Dowd says:

          Cap’n Shit for Brains,

          I was asking Mr LGB his opinion on “sexual immorality”.

          Do YOU believe sexual contact between two unmarried people is “sexual immorality”? Is masturbation “sexual immorality”?

          The 10 Commandments
          You shall have no other gods before Me.
          You shall not make idols.
          You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.
          Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
          Honor your father and your mother.
          You shall not murder.
          You shall not commit adultery.
          You shall not steal.
          You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
          You shall not covet.
