		<description><![CDATA[&quot;The United States celebrates a Thanksgiving Day holiday dominated not by atonement for that horrendous crime against humanity but by a falsified account of the “encounter” between Europeans and American Indians.&quot;

Mr. Jensen is right to expose the multiculturalist myth of Thanksgiving as a sham. It would be of great benefit to Americans if he would continue working to expose further the multiculturalist, egalitarian version of American history for the canard it is. Indeed, the first Thanksgivings were not celebrations of egalitarianism and feel-good one-world multiculturalism, they were celebrations by a particular people, of their particular triumphs in the New World over the environment and the foes they vanquished. Much as the Declaration of Independence, despite the rhetoric, was not truly a declaration of universal, abstract rights (and therefore not the founding document of a fictional propositional nation), but rather a political statement of separation of one particular people (Americans, i.e. the Anglo settlers and those who came after that fully assimilated into their culture) from another (the British). Americans (unhyphenated) are a particular ethnic group with collective interests and rights like any other, and that our history should be perverted by multicultists, jacobins and the like – for the express purpose of divorcing us from our history, ancestry and each other – is foul calumny.

I do hope he will do more work in this vein, and help us purge multiculturalist distortions from our history and society.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Even the philosopher F. Nietzsche said that life would be a terrible depressive mistake without art, fiction, religion and lies. The truth is that truth is too depressive, it even decreases energies and motivation.&quot;

you fail to grasp the content of your words. 

&quot;It is known by very few, for example, that the secret of Nietzsche&#039;s style in Thus Spake Zarathustra lies in the fact that he imbibed certain poisonous substances which brought into play within him a particular rhythm, which is the distinctive style of this work.&quot;

The Festivals and Their Meaning, II. Easter V, THE TEACHINGS OF THE RISEN CHRIST, Steiner...

Let me say this alone: politics leads only to destruction, until you realize the connection between what we call evolution and the plant world, you will have only grasped at plastic straws, devoid of any profound meaning.

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;I deplore holocausts. I won’t allow them in my lifetime. But I will joyfully celebrate.&quot;

You still DON&#039;T GET IT.  How did you arrive at this position that made you able to take over the land?  The reason is that you had the gun powder and they did not.  You were able to kill the indigenous population by violent act and take over their resources.   It is obvious that you have no sympathy for the victims because you do not understand the nature of the crime you your ancestors have committed, instead, you have internalized their lies against the indigenous population, and otherwise, you would have been more supportive of writer’s point of view.  
Now, you are doing the same thing today and supporting Zionist wars against innocent people by not protesting against the war and supporting it with your tax money because you have no sense of responsibility.  I am sure one day you would like to add a day of celebration for Iraq, Afghanistan or Palestine to your list.  We, however, do NOT ALLOW YOUR LIST To BE EXPANDED by killing and destruction of far away countries to bring you more time to do shopping at the Mall.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[HELLO ALL: i am realist, and i also love psychology and the emotions of people. I know that a lot of our holidays are a hoax and not real. However you guys gotta understand that life in the USA and in most countries is too boring, too stressful and devoid of parties, pleasures and happy emotions for most people.  I think that people should keep celebrating thanksgiving with their traditional turkeys, potatoe salads, pecan pie, and breads.  

Even the philosopher F. Nietzsche said that life would be a terrible depressive mistake without art, fiction, religion and lies.  The truth is that truth is too depressive, it even decreases energies and motivation.   And to tell an american family to stop celebrating Thanksgiving and Christmas would even stress out more than they are already stressed.

People can continue to celebrate christmas and thanksgiving, and at the same time vote for Socialist Parties in elections.  So i don&#039;t think that staying away from thanksgiving and christmas will overthrow this capitalist system.

The real solution for USA is not to quit eating, to quit drinking alcohol and to quit partying.

The real solution for America is really to vote for Socialist Workers Parties in elections and if there are no Socialist Candidates available at least to support a social-democrat like Nader or The Green Party.

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t know of any scholarship that posits that many Native-Americans (in the US) were actually Africans.  Certainly, there has been intermixing, especially back in the slave period when Africans escaped their plantations. And certainly some Native-Americans owned black slaves.  There are groups of Indians in the US today that have a fair amount of African ancestry. BUT, the vast majority of Native-Americans are either &#039;pure&#039; blood or mixed with European ancestry.

With regard to Thanksgiving - the few Indians I know treat Thanksgiving like whites do - a day off from work, sleep-in a bit, then cook and eat dinner with friends and family , booze a bit - and put the game on the tube.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[All you non-whites, take heart, the insane, capitalist, calculating, segment of the so-called white race known as the over-class has taken to raping its own handmaidens.

I personally hope they sober up from their wild horse ride but if not drowning in a creek will do.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[GET READY FOR THE 5 TO 10 EXTRA LBS. GAINED ON THE BINGE-EATING GLUTTONY AND GLORIFIED GREED OF THANKSGIVING DAY

MANY PEOPLE IN THE U.S.A. INGEST AS MUCH AS 10,000 CALORIES ON THAT, WHICH IS DETRIMENTAL TO THE HEALTH

Institutionalized Glorification of our Greed and Gluttony
Reflections of an Anti-Capitalist

Another propaganda-driven greed-fest has nearly passed in the land of the corporatized and the home of the subservient. Obedient little wage slaves and consumers that most of us are (to varying degrees of course), we have once again dutifully greased the wheels of the monstrous capitalist machine and made our proper sacrifices at the altar of Mammon. Between our voracious inhalation of all manner of edibles to our obscene spree of rapacious spending using money eagerly fronted by the usurious kings of finance capital, Thanksgiving and Black Friday are celebratory days indeed for the moneyed elite comprising the allegedly non-existent ruling class in our “egalitarian” and “democratic” nation.

I celebrated Thanksgiving. However, I wasn’t bowing my head and expressing gratitude to the Calvinist God in which I am “supposed to” believe for the things for which I “should” be grateful. There was an interesting duality to my day as I contemplated that for which I feel a deep ingratitude and celebrated that which sparks my feelings of sincere gratitude.

The components of my “Thanklessgiving” included:
1. The trillions of OUR tax dollars OUR government spends each year attempting to attain global hegemony through nearly ubiquitous military bases, a nuclear arsenal large enough to obliterate the universe, and numerous ecocidal, genocidal invasions of ridiculously weaker nations which, fortunately, usually give us a bit of what we deserve by sending us home limping.

2. The US American Gulag, a penal system populated by over two million human beings. The “land of the free” has the largest number of incarcerated people in the world, even surpassing China, the most populous and allegedly most repressive nation in the world. Criminalizing select forms of self-medicating (those that predominate in the urban core Bantustans to which we have relegated much of our black population) has proven to be an efficient means of “legally” repressing black males. Meanwhile, alcohol, a drug which severely impairs judgment, lowers inhibitions, causes the bloody demise of over 16,000 innocents on our highways each year, and tends to increase the belligerence factor exponentially, remains quite legal and practically flows from the spigots of our homes. And we’re imprisoning people for the possession of marijuana?

3. Factory farms and the fast food industry that necessitated their genesis. ...]]></description>
