An SJW Prog admits that Thanksgiving is her favorite holiday...she gets a chance to Snowflake-Splain to her entire family!
...Suddenly Cody pipes up and says that isn’t what Thanksgiving is about. ‘But Aunt Lauren, I thought Thanksgiving was about being grateful, like I am grateful for you!’
I’m literally shaking.
Is this 5-year-old mansplaining to me? I quickly make a mental note. This one is going in the podcast for sure.
After my family intervene to prevent Cody from further intimidating me, I reflect on his words. And if I’m being honest, Cody is right. Well, at least about me and other enlightened people.
For those of us who are more evolved, Thanksgiving isn’t about being thankful for whiteness and systemic privilege. It’s about celebrating the efforts of educated and cultured people to civilize barbaric savages over a table full of food.
In other words, it’s about my chance to let my Trump-supporting family know they’re destroying America because they’re afraid of brown people.
And despite the two dozen tweets I sent out talking about how much I hate Thanksgiving, I admit: it’s my favorite holiday.
