I’ll admit I spoiled one woman’s marijuana holiday yesterday. She was going to a bar and asked me, “Do you know what I’m celebrating?” Without hesitation I said, “Sure. Adolf Hitler’s birthday.” Which is true; Hitler was born on April 20, 1889.

Has anyone else on FR noticed that liberals tend to put their holidays on the birthdays of dictators? Earth Day (April 22) is also Lenin’s birthday, and the winter solstice (December 21) is Stalin’s birthday. I’m guessing that it won’t be long before Ho Chi Minh’s birthday (May 19) becomes a liberal holiday, too.

Earth Day (April 22) is also Lenin’s birthday

And the very first “Earth Day” was literally on the 100th anniversary of Lenin’s birth.

It was a Wednesday that year.

Intended primarily, I would imagine, to generate large crowds of smelly hippies for the TV cameras that the Soviets could represent as “The youth of the capitalist running dogs shaking-off their chains and celebrating the birth of Comrade Lenin”.
