Your thoughts on Juneteenth?

I don't think I'm invited.

I went to the gym then spent the rest of the day at home. No chance of getting shot from celebrators shooting at each other that way.

Doesn’t bother me none but I don’t think banks and shit need to be closed because of it.

We should have been celebrating this day a long time ago. But Democraps who lost to the vote and the war to keep their slaves, have been sour over it for a long time, and ignored the date for over 150 years, not even mentioning it but in passing in public school social studies classes, if at all.

Then Biden uses it as a cheap way to get brownie points with black people and white liberals too stupid to read up on their history, after Saint George Floyd of the Fentanyl offs himself with a good dose of said drug. (The smarter parts of the black population know this is all bullshit and have called Biden and his cronies out on it).

You should hear all the myths the Democraps have been convincing themselves about this situation. They don't give Lincoln any credit for the Emancipation because he was the first Republican President in our history. They made up a stupid story about "conservative" Democraps in the southern states flipping their politics to join Republicans. They paint Republicans as the racist ones because we tell black people to get off their asses and work; instead of lying to their faces about how they're innocent in all the woes they bring on themselves, and give them free everything just because they're black.

Someone made a meme a while back, paraphrasing Jeff Foxworthy's "You've gotta be a redneck" jokes. It says "If you think the party that freed the slaves are the racist ones....you might be a liberal."

Another conversation that fits this made-up holiday very well too, is one from Futurama:

Fry: Lighten up Hermes, it's Labor Day.

Hermes: Labor Day! That phony baloney holiday made up by fatcat union gansters?!

Fry: Yup.

Hermes: Hot damn! A day off!

"Juneteenth" Sounds like something a five-year-old would have came up with. All it does is reinforce the stereotype that black people have terrible grammar..

Slavery ended in the South before the north. Virginia was welcomed back into the union AS as slave state.

So many inconvienet truths get ignored time and time again.

At the peak of slavery in 1860, only 1.8% of the entire US population actually owned a slave. And a significant portion of that 1.8%...were Black men.

We never talk about black on black slavery!

I had to revoke TV priviledges for my slaves. Can't let them learn slavery was abolished!

Banks closed and no mail delivered.

A holiday that nobody heard of except for a couple of towns in Texas that apparently celebrated it. I'm in a northern "free state". Trump had to cancel a rally or something somewhere because of sudden cry of Juneteenth and that's when it was brought to national attention.

I don't care for the name, sounds as bad as "woke".
