The left’s objection to Thanksgiving and most other traditional cultural celebrations has nothing to do with the underlying historic basis of the events. Their philosophy demands that they must destroy all “old” cultural norms of the majority dominant culture and replace them with their own ideologigical pure practices in order to cement their power over people.

This was seen in the French Revolution, the Bolshevek Revolution, the Red Chinese revolution in 1949 and the subsequent Cultural Revolution in 1966 to wipe out people’s memory of the famine and death caused by Mao’s crackpot ideas. This revolution focussed on destroying the four “olds” old ideas, old customs, old habits and old culture.

You nailed it, Dave.

That’s why they tear down statues, destroy holidays, and rewrite textbooks among other things.

The cultural revolution in China was absolutely horrific.
