At a Randolph Board of Education meeting on Thursday, board members voted to remove all holiday names off of the school calendar The move came amidst backlash over changing Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples Day from the 100-plus people who attended the meeting Instead, all holidays will be designated as simply 'days off,' according to Fox5 NY The idea behind the holiday name change stems from an effort to avoid 'hurt feelings' over holidays that target specific people or groups 'What did you just do? What just happened?' one man exclaimed incredulously as the board made a unanimous vote

I like the Randolph area. I pulled this off Wikipedia. Randolph is deep Red. As I suspected, they are telling the Libs to stuff it. Love it.
As of 2020, members of the Randolph Township Council are Mayor Christine Carey (R, term on council and as mayor ends December 31, 2020), Deputy Mayor Joanne Veech (R, term on council and as deputy mayor ends 2020), Mark H. Forstenhausler (R, 2022), James B. Loveys (R, 2022), Lou Nisivoccia (R, 2022), Marie Potter (R, 2022) and Lance Tkacs (R, 2020).[4][57][58][59][60][61]

I look at it the other way around. Most Americans don’t have a clue about the historical significance of these observances, and the holidays have become little more than a day off for shopping and sales. So perhaps we should just eliminate the holidays, make government workers show up for work every day, and let people who find the days meaningful observe them.
Over the years I’ve found myself working more on civil holidays anyway — and taking the religious ones off.

Interesting point. Eliminate official Holidays. Let the people celebrate or not as they wish. If it meams that much then take your own time off from work. If people are bothering to work at all that is.

These demons will eventually cancel Veterans’ Day when there are no veterans left to be honored. Unless it has been canceled already in some districts. Sick culture.

who cares if someone’s feelings are hurt.
that is none of our business.
feelings are the responsibility of the person who is having them.
