Juneteenth is a Marxist invention just like Kwanza. Marxism does not promote liberty and freedom.
Oh yes.
They called it Independence Day. Juneteenth was a jubilee.
These communists usurped it and twisted it.
They do not believe the US is a legitimate nation. They think it is 1619 country.
They stole the election. They put up their flag, rainbow flag everywhere they could.
It was a coup.
re: “The same narrative suggests that slaves in Galveston, Texas, were ignorant of their freedom until Union General Gordon Granger arrived and read General Order No. 3 from a balcony.”
TOO BAD we didn’t have something like the telegraph spanning the nation that this sort of news could ‘flash across’ ..
Oh - wait ...
Really interesting. Thanks for posting MC.
Black Fatigue. Growing more extreme every day. Why can’t they just be Americans?
i propose renaming july 4th to
No Kings Day.
;-)
The ideological aim of leftist causes is to weaken capitalist society to such an extent that it can be overthrown. LGBTQ policies destroy the foundation of society, the family, reducing the birth rate so that there are simply fewer people, and many of those people become psychotic and suicidal. “Net Zero” policies make energy unreliable and expensive, so that the standard of living declines as many cannot afford heat or transportation. DEI policies cause racial and gender groups to mistrust and hate each other, while promoting unqualified people to positions of tremendous power. Those people then flip planes upside down on runways and fly helicopters into passenger planes, and can’t build a durable road or building. By promoting the unqualified, DEI destroys the meritocracy which is the foundation of all modern societies. Once merit is abandoned, idiots will be running and ruining your life because you put them in that position. People will become angry and frustrated, and the left will blame the capitalists for the collapse the left has always wanted.

This is an excellent article that needs wide dissemination. Bookmark and tell your friends..
Too bad more of them did not share in that ending. They were two pawns, not the mastermind (Rudolph Abel maybe?). All lefties who thought the USSR was a better place or socialism was great.
Instead of Juneteenth we should celebrate the birth of Joe Macarthy who tried to alert the country of the spies in our political apparatus.
I have Zero issue celebrating the end of slavery in the US. However Juneteenth is the absolutely stupidest name ever.. Emancipation Day, Liberty Day, Freedom Day… any number of adequate names could have been used. Latching onto this stupid name and date was sadly just pandering and has created a division that was not needed .
For the umpteenth time, Juneteenth is not Julyteenth. Auto correct wants to acknowledge Juntheenth, but notes Julyteenth is not a word. My birthday is in Septemberteenth. Just before Hallowe’en in Octoberteenth. All teens matter.
“The Ideological Aim of Juneteenth was to Replace the Fourth of July“
I actually did hear brief fireworks nearby last night.
I was 😮 and 🙄 at the same time.
“ These communists usurped it and twisted it.”
Thats why I call it umpteenth.
Every pro-abortion statement of "It's not a baby, it's a clump of cells. Christians should quit forcing their religion on us." should be replied with the reminder that the pro-slavery crowd said, "It's not a person, it's just property. Christians should quit forcing their religion on us."
They Failed.
There are those who want to replace July 4th with Juneteenth. Ignore the plotters because we can, and should, celebrate both with good conscience. Freedom from the barbarism of slavery is certainly as worth celebrating— by both whites and blacks — as our freedom from the Brits.
Yeah, well, like most people, I’m tired of the perpetual parade of “celebrate, reward and applaud the ‘culture of blackness.’”
