Yeah, but doesn't Thanksgiving Day have something to do with attempted genocide or killing native amreicans or something? Not sure. I don't believe everything I see on tv.

Thankyou day is for to celebrate your friends and loved ones, but is for everyone, not just those in the US.

Thanks giving actually isnt how everyone thinks it is. Native Americans came to the pilgrims, and yes taught them how to farm, but they didnt bring turkey.


IT was a potluck, everyone had to bring something, its not like the pilgrims,. or the indians brought everything


And this event didnt just happen once a year, it happened often, but the brilliant Abe Lincoln made the holiday up during the civil war to unite the nation, that just shows the one of the "greatest" leaders in our history lied to get the states "united"

you cant really be down on Abe lincoln...he did so many great things. and i dont really believe he "lied" to the american people. it WAS a really good way to bring people together, and obviously he didnt lie because the actual history is still in history books today.

Who controls the past, now, controls the future. Who controls the present, now, controls the past...
I believe it was Rage Against The Machiene who said that.

Or then you could read Nineteen Eighty Four.
