Thanksgiving is a discriminative and oppressive holiday

Kindergartners in Claremont, California have been told that they can't dress up as Indians to celebrate Thanksgiving.

Quote:

"I'm sure you can appreciate the inappropriateness of asking children to dress up like slaves and kind slave masters, or Jews and friendly Nazis, or members of any other racial minority group who has struggled in our nation's history."

What's more, the concept of Thanksgiving is absurd. There would have been no one to give thanks to since Obama was not yet president when the first one was held. Now comrade, pass the tofurkey.

Amen, Obama, Comrade Opiate of the People! Why, I just saw this progressive news segment here in Asia on the Compassionate Conspiratorial Network.

If we must continue with this offensive tradition, let me repeat what I have written elsewhere (for repetition is work, aids others' learning, and burnishes reputations (depending on content)). To wit, let us not eat turkeys but eat jive turkeys.

It is a modest proposal, comrades, but very progressive.
