The Left wants to take your Thanksgiving away

[Votto]

The true story behind Thanksgiving is a bloody one, and some people say it's time to cancel the holiday

The real history of Thanksgiving is far darker than a celebratory feast between English Pilgrims and the local Native Americans who helped them.

And rename it "Takesgiving".

Besides, thanks to the Left you can't afford carbon producing turkeys anymore anyway.

And who needs to be thankful for anything? Everything you have you have a right to, in fact, it is not enough. The government owes you much more

So there is that.

Hard to argue.

These are miserable people, and they are free to be as miserable as they like on every day of the year. Today, we are going to have a lovely time

You got it all wrong

The Left wants you to eat bugs instead of turkey

Bugs Instead of Turkey? A Radical Thanksgiving Idea

Recipes included.

About 80 percent of the world already eats insects, which are a fantastic source of protein. As Americans prepare for this year's Thanksgiving meal, perhaps it's time to consider the many merits of a bugcentric holiday feast.

Insects are a food source in many places in the world for good reason. Fried grasshoppers, as The New Yorker has reported, are excellent sources of iron and zinc, and contain three times as much protein as an equivalent serving of beef. In West Africa, they're an invaluable staple for warding off a dangerous protein deficiency known as kwashiorkor. According to PBS, a single 6-ounce serving of crickets has less than half the saturated fat as the same amount of ground beef (plus twice the vitamin B12).

There are the holdouts who prefer honey-baked ham, but turkey is pretty unquestionably the reigning Thanksgiving centerpiece. Aside from the fact that people like the taste, turkey is a popular meat in the country because it seems both healthy and environmentally friendly. Those things are true, sure, but really only in the context of comparing turkey to beef. Cows use at least 11 times more water than turkey and nearly 30 times more land. Add in the sheer volume of methane gas produced by our country's cattle (grass-fed or not) and the fact that red meat is also very bad news for your heart and yes, turkey is a great choice.


But the benefits of turkey still don't stack up to the benefits of bugs. In future Thanksgivings, you might be persuaded to swap out turkey for crickets, which is also what you will be met with after suggesting this to your loved ones.

"I do realize that insects do have a bad rap," California Academy of Sciences entomologist Brian Fisher told PBS. "Most people see insects are pests or as dangerous. But it's just the opposite. Insects are less dangerous and less of a problem for humans in terms of disease."

Insects are also environmentally friendly, broadly accessible, and affordable. Cricket farming produces 100 times less greenhouse gas and requires 22,000 times less water than beef farming, and this is to yield an equal volume of product.

Insect protein also can be powdered, and no more resembles the original bug than a burger resembles a cow. According to one curious taster, most kinds have a mild, slightly earthy taste, sort of like nuts. To get you in the Thanksgiving spirit, here's a recipe for a bug-based main dish and another for a side. (If you're allergic to shellfish you might be allergic to some bug species, so consult your doctor first.)

Enjoy.

They have usurped Christmas even though there are people who are in the spirit before Thanksgiving. Christmas has always been religious and also had some crass with Santa. But what the Progs and the Corporate people have done with it as they are together in bed with this is a disgrace. These holidays needed to be reimagined by the globalists.

Christmas is a real trip when it comes to godless Leftists. Basically, they hate on Jesus and God all year long, then feel like the biggest hypocrites when they celebrate Christmas. But being miserable, they can't just leave that alone. They have to hound Christians, telling us over and over everything that is wrong about our holiday. Bonus points if they do it on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.

here's the thing: go ahead and celebrate it. I don't care. I'm not gatekeeping who celebrates. But it's just such bad manners, so absolutely RUDE, to tell people who celebrate the actual meaning of the holiday they're doing it wrong because you want to partake too.

These gutless folks would never do this to say, Ramadan. Or Diwali, or even Hanukkah.

It's no skin off my nose if we rid ourselves of all folklore concerning Native Americans. Honestly, I would prefer it. I was glad when the baseball team I've rooted for these past 60+ years moved on from it. And boy did those over-achieving "Guardiac Kids" give me a thrill this past season.

Christmas has little to do with being a Christian.

All well and fine with celebrating a meal with family but people should most certainly be taught the actual history of the county as opposed to the cleaned up version taught for so many years.

The right is taking Thanksgiving away by making it a partisan issue.

I have collected so many holidays from the right I don't know what to do with them all.
