We know that the War On Christmas will be starting soon, but right now it's the War On Thanksgiving that's going on. We've been covering the War On Thanksgiving for years, one of my earliest articles here being Thanksgiving: The National Question Footnote, and this War got a little attention lately because Donald Trump mentioned it. [#WhatLiberalsCallThanksgiving Trends as Trump Roasted for Saying People Want to Change Name of Holiday, by Ewan Palmer, Newsweek, November 27, 2019]
Trump is, as in so many cases that the Left will call a lie, perfectly correct. Many Indians have wanted to change Thanksgiving to a National Day of Mourning, and that's been true since 1970.
But the best way to prove to someone unfamiliar with this particular Culture War that it exists: Show them that Salon has denied it.
Earlier today, I posted Amanda Marcotte Denies The War On Thanksgiving On SALON.com, Which Hates Thanksgiving Worse Than Christmas, in which I reported that Ms. Marcotte, a liberal feminist of the worst kind, had written:
Donald Trump's new lie is a real turkey: Now liberals are waging war on Thanksgiving!
Not content with the mythical "war on Christmas," Trump now claims that liberals want to cancel ThanksgivingNovember 27, 2019
Salon, which has denied the War On Christmas while waging it for the last fifteen years is also, as an organ of the Rabid Left, a great wager of the War On Thanksgiving, which is really just a subset of their War on White America, so if they're denying this, it must be true.
Amanda and the people at Salon hate America, and don't experience the emotion of gratitude, so no point wishing them a Happy Thanksgiving, but the rest of you, go ahead and enjoy yourselves.
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at VDARE.com!
