These people spit on July 4 but they demand that we worship Juneteenth.

Sitting here having coffee with my wife. She grew up in Colleyville, Texas between Dallas and Ft Worth. Her quote: “the entire time I lived in Texas 1973-1991, she never heard of Juneteenth.”

I work at a chemical refinery in Massachusetts and we have the day off. Go figure.

Pandering. Trump guilty of it too.

These people spit on July 4 but they demand that we worship Juneteenth.

At the nation’s founding, about 15-20% of the citizenry were Loyalists. The same percentage stands today as hate America losers. They are the progeny of the milquetoast British lovers. Indeed, the far left progressives are actually lily white. Nearly seven-in-ten Progressive Left (68%) are White adults, making this group less racially and ethnically diverse than the other Democratic-oriented groups.

Yet, these Dems hold not only extremist views on race… Yet, these Dems hold views more extreme racist views than those held by more racially-diverse Dem groups....

…but views more extreme than those held by more racially-diverse Dem groups.

They live in enclaves in cities, prefer going to museums over going to the range, and think religion is sophistry. Their policies and language all reek of a Superiority Complex.

They are like the popular kids in high school…they think they’re your Overlords, and that you envy them. In reality they don’t matter and the only power they have over you, is the extent to which you let them live rent-free in your mind.

And they usually get pantsed.

When they start in, remind them that Martin Luther King was a Republican and Juneteenth arose because a Republican freed the slaves. Close with “Obama never said a word about making Juneteenth a holiday. It took a man like Trump to make that happen, and in turn Trump will win the black vote in Michigan and elsewhere in 2024. You lose, again. Good day sir.” and walk away.

Topher, Juneteenth

[oldtech]

That’s just not right. July 4 has been Independence Day for as long as I I can remember, but this Juneteenth Day seems to be a bit restrictive. As was said, it is not a holiday for some. That doesn’t sound like much of a federal holiday to me. If I wasn’t retired, I’m pretty sure I’d still be working today; possibly for very little pay while my neighbor very possibly had a day off with full pay. Before they set up these holidays, they should at least make it equitable for working folk, not just SOME working folk.
