There
are I think two reasons for why leftists hate Thanksgiving. First and
foremost, there is the fundamental purpose of the holiday, the giving
of thanks to God,
"...for
his kind care and protection of the People of this Country... for the
civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed... in general
for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to
confer upon us." [George Washington 1789].
Such
an intrinsically Christian holiday is of course insufferable to the
viciously atheist left, and therefor cannot be tolerated.
Thus
we have the underlying core principle. There is another branch of
this tree of dissent that springs from the original, one perhaps more
obvious and commonly recognized: racism.
The
fact of the matter is leftists cannot abide Thanksgiving for the very
simple reason that it entails a historical account of white men and
red men, for a rarity, on peaceful and even generous terms of mutual
goodwill. Such a stark and jarring example of human decency is simply
unendurable to the left, flying in the face of their false, hate
mongering. and self-congratulatory ideology that insists white man's
history is one unbroken and unmitigated string of heinous atrocities.
Thus,
Thanksgiving Day and it's offensive example of Christian humility and
benevolence must therefor be abolished, because the image of white
Christians passing the turkey and bread while red men pass the
venison and corn, instead of blowing each other's brains out with
musket balls, defies the unholy tenets of fomented enmity, and if we
for even one day of the year set aside our carefully cultivated
divisions of racial hatred, that would be RACIST. ...or something,
something something.
So
thanks be to God, and make Christmas merry again.
