... why the left really hates Thanksgiving.

Gads - Daniel Greenfield did it again... boiled disparate conflicting information down to one pure kernel of truth: "The left is a movement built on resentment. And resentment and gratitude are opposing emotions."

Scientific American is neither scientific nor American.

Glad to have helped!   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_American#Scientific_and_political_debate
 
 
 
Scientific American is part of Springer Nature, which owns or has commercial relations with thousands of scientific publications (many of them can be found at www.springernature.com/us).
