Why is it called the "4th of July?" We dont call Christmas the "25th of December."
Its motherfucking Independence Day!
Now do you wonder why it's canceled?
Because as u/lemonjuice accurately pointed out, it's the standard operating procedure to destroy an enemy's culture. You do it inch by inch.
Independence Day -> "4th of July" -> some bullshit likes "Fireworks Day" -> then just "Tuesday"
I get it now:
Thanksgiving Day -> "Turkey Day" then -> "The Thursday before black Friday"
Merry Christmas--->Happy Holidays
Our culture and history are being erased at warp speed
