Regarding Non-Holiday Holidays

This past Columbus Day is a reminder on how much the "woke" left hates America and Western Civilization. Needless to say, the hate campaign against Christopher Columbus goes back decades. During the Columbus quincentenary in 1992 the vilification was thick. Of course, academic filth were in the forefront of the hate mongers:

And we will argue in this essay that Colón was indeed a murderer, culpable for those crimes against humanity as the head of an authoritarian regime just as readily as Adolph Hitler is held accountable for the murder of some six million Romas (the so-called Gypsies), Jews, and gays in Nazi Germany. 

The left's rancor has only gotten worse and more demented in the last twenty year. 

Oddly enough, the US Mint issued a commemorative coin for the anniversary in 1992. 

Columbus Day is still one of ten federal National Holidays. It was established in 1937. According to the feds, "It is celebrated every second Monday of October...." Not quite (although, "woke" federal "workers" happily take a paid holiday to commemorate literal Hitler). In many jurisdictions, Columbus Day has been "fundamentally transformed" into Stone Age Savage Day ... oops ... indigenous peoples day. This movement is just a part of the cultural jihad determined to destroy America.

The same phenomenon occurs every year in Hawaii on Admission Day. State government "workers" get it off as a paid holiday. However, the Hawaiian victim lobby and other America haters have turned it into a "forgotten holiday."

Presidents' Day was created largely to denigrate the memory of two great Americans: George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. A commemorative Civil Rights Day could have been created for a month like June or August which don't have a fedgov holiday. Or, King Day in January could have been established without messing with Washington's and Lincoln's birthdays. Instead, it was decided to go with airbrushing away the vast part of American history that doesn't fit the leftist narrative. Acknowledging the man most instrumental in the nation's founding and the man who saved the Union by bringing forth a "new birth of freedom" just wouldn't do. 

The left's war on Christmas has been largely a failure, except with those mumbling "happy holidays" on December 25th. It's hard to say which holiday will be their next target. Perhaps Veterans or Memorial Day. They hate the military and the troops. Although, their campaign to turn the military into another Post Office type jobs program is moving right along. Or perhaps, Thanksgiving with its Christian and "imperialist" connotations will be next on the chopping block. Time will tell. But, rest assured that the left's campaign to deconstruct America will never end until stopped by patriots.
