[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s kind of nice because it’s a nothing holiday. Minimal decorations, no gifts and not as commercial as Christmas. It’s a bit of a sad holiday in that it’s about giving thanks to native people who went on to be slaughtered for their efforts. But that’s in the past. [/quote] We aren't giving thanks to native people. That is not the history of Thanksgiving. Some of you just make up stories in your head.[/quote] I thought it stemmed from the early settlers who were posh English people and too dumb to figure out how to live off the land. Then they started starving and dying, and the local indigenous people took pity on them. They brought them food and helped them survive. Then of course they were rewarded with death later. Is that not correct? [/quote]
