Juneteenth became a “holiday” as a DEI cramdown during Peak Woke. It was after the BLM/George Floyd riots, and before Musk bought Twitter, so the left controlled the government, the media, the narrative and the culture.
It was never unifying, widely accepted, or historically important, just Democrats imposing their will to capture cultural war gains and partisan political ground.
And pretty much only government employees and bankers get ANOTHER day off.
I don’t see how there can be any long term goodness with Juneteenth because we all know how it came to be a holiday: Fruit of the poisonous tree.
Wait, the guys who just wanted to play baseball without being forced to celebrate men marrying men, transing kids, men in women’s sports, and buying babies from their parents… are the hijackers?
If Trump had lost, America’s entire 250th 4th of July would be about gay pride, apologizing for a history we shouldn’t be apologizing for… and DEI nonsense.
