RUSH: Liberals really don't like Thanksgiving for any number of reasons. You can find the truth in that statement in the multicultural educational curricula.
Liberals don't like Thanksgiving 'cause they think it's racist. They think Thanksgiving's all about white supremacy. Thanksgiving is the result of white Europeans coming to this country and kicking out the Indians, obliterating the Native Americans, taking their land, taking everything they had and settling the land for ourselves. That's inherently racist, and it was war like, and it was white supremacy, and they're made nervous by the holiday. They also think that Thanksgiving's sexist. You know why they think it's sexist? This kind of goes back, because traditionally Thanksgiving, it's the women in the kitchen and the men in front of the TV watching football. Thanksgiving was always a holiday featuring the subordination, subjugation of women into traditional patriarchal, domineering roles.
They also think Thanksgiving is killing the environment. They think Thanksgiving celebrates environmental destruction. Well, you have to get the food. You have to raise the turkeys, you have to feed the turkeys, you have to do all that, whatever furthers excess focus on food, too much food, too much environmental damage. And of course it's anti-animal rights, quite naturally. And last but not least -- don't doubt me on any of this. These are the kind of things, by the way, if I may be selfish for a moment, these are the kind of things and many other things like them why Kathryn and I are writing these children's books, the truth of American history, the truth of the American founding, because liberals really think that Thanksgiving is ultimately about celebrating genocide.
They think the entire aspect, the entire series of events that led to America being created by the discovery of white Europeans conquering this land, taking and stealing whatever we wanted. And we had to kill people en route, we had to kill people along the way, Thanksgiving is a standing symbol of white European genocide. Now, I can imagine some of you looking at the radio, "Come on, Rush, this is over the top." It is not. If you doubt me, Google any of this. You will find all kinds of documentation for it. You'll find opinion pieces, op-ed pieces, you'll find more than what I'm telling you here that liberals find wrong with Thanksgiving.
There is one significant change, however, this year, one significant change. The Huffing and Puffington Post normally every Thanksgiving making villains out of the Pilgrims. Most liberal publications, most leftists do. I mean, the Pilgrims were the original villains, white European villains. They were the original genocide practitioners. They came and killed and stole and conquered. They took everything. They were white Europeans, and religious freaks to boot. But this year the Huffing and Puffington Post says we need to think of the Pilgrims in the same way we're looking at Syrian refugees today. Yes indeed. The Huffing and Puffington Post wants us to remember that the Pilgrims were a persecuted minority fleeing religious persecution and violence, just like the Syrian refugees who are fleeing religious persecution and violence.
Whomever’s ox is gored, I guess (or should I say, turkey)
Whenever libs bring up what happened to the indians, I always tell them to demolish their house, find the ancestor of some indian, give him/her their land, and move back to Europe. They usually shut up after that.
It really shows that they are noting but idiots
Damn, you beat me! :)
Liberals hate Thanksgiving because they refuse to be thankful for ANYTHING.
Let alone to God.
