comparing thanksgiving to the holocaust is pretty asinine
Not really, I suppose twisting the history of a horrible event is a bit different than blatantly celebrating one. But they both stem from ignorance, so my point stands firm.
while i do understand some of where your coming from, the fact is it has become a day to celebrate what we are thankful for, like family and what not, taking things with a grain of salt is one thing, but if the celebration of those types of values seem like ignorance to you i would very much suggest reevaluating certain views, im sorry you have nothing to be thankful for.
When you really get down to it, society doesn't have a reason to be thankful. We're doing pretty horrible as a species. Even using your logic, you shouldn't need an invisible measurement of time to tell you to wish the ones around you well. That's just an asinine, selfish, and outdated ideology.
except the first thanksgiving wasnt total genocide, that stuff followed later
whereas thats all the holocaust was. so even comparing them is flawed
but then again, you just think youre trolling

Reflexes go away and be happy!
The actual event was a plot to gain their trust, so the day itself is sinister in its own respect. Twisting horrible events and blatantly celebrating one are a bit different, but not its not even a tiny stretch to compare them.

Edit:It's fine I guess. I don't judge anyone for celebrating the holiday, you're all entitled to your beliefs. Just don't be angry at the people who legitimately celebrate the holocaust next time you see it. Or else you're just silly ^.^
haha you talk like you were there. why does gaining trust have to be a ploy, perhaps they just wanted to be friendly. its not like the first wave of puritans were warmongers, they just wanted their own place to be strict religious bitches like calvin n geneva
it was other eus coming over looking for land and just general bloodthirst that caused the rest
so again, totally unlike the holocaust
but again, this is just your attempt to troll and you think youre winning something by having me post.....when in fact youre not. i know youre still butthurt about the other threads =]
