[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another attempt to ruin a holiday by shaming Americans.

Get your own holiday to cry over.[/quote]

America does have a dark past. We should reflect on the massive human cost of building this country.

The funny thing is that the most obnoxious commenters on this topic likely arrived more than one hundred years after your family. [/quote]

I arrived 44 years ago, almost to the day. What’s your point? I give two figs what some internet cosplay Mayflower descendant says? That entitles them to what, exactly, in terms of moral authority or understanding of the situation?

Best I can tell from your perspective an actual Mayflower descendant is up to their elbows in blood and owes all kinds of land and reparations. You should go over her house and take what you want from her garage. Leave me out of it. I’ll be sitting comfortably in my house with friends and family, drinking wine and watching football, thanking the good Lord I managed to navigate UMC American life without being indoctrinated to feel so much shame and joylessness about my country, culture, and self.

Enjoy your day of mourning. [/quote]
