This is not a real holiday for all Americans. I don't care about it, just as I don't care about the other stupid one, Kwaanza. Did I spell that right? I don't care.....
In fact, this day is the day on which I was married, so there's that. I don't celebrate that either, since it was not a good decision. So, today is just a regular day. Too much pandering for me. Yes, there was slavery and it was horrible. People descended from slaves are not slaves. They have had generations to shake off the touch of slavery. They are just like us. I don't think they need these celebrations to make them OK. Celebrate and leave the rest of us alone.
The Woke way that Juneteenth is typically framed and celebrated is off-putting because everything Woke is a twisted lie, BUT regardless of that element, celebrating the END OF SLAVERY in America is plenty worthwhile.
Slavery is pure evil. I'm glad it's gone (at least as a legal means of "owning" another human being; we all know that human trafficking still exists, but outside the law . . . Trump is working on that). YOU're glad its gone too, of course; who isn't?
When Woke is just a sour faded memory, the end of legal slavery in America will still be worth celebrating. Perhaps we'll give the holiday a new name.

I am black.
Even I know this is a bullshit Holiday. I wish Trump wouldn't support this none sense.
But he does.

Yeah it's just hard for me to trust these commies.
Good point. The Commies can NEVER be trusted because being a Commie means being opposed to freedom and being committed to destroying civil society.
