I don’t have much to say here, but when I hopped on Twitter earlier, I saw the “it’s lame to celebrate the 4th” left (and promptly shut it off!). I felt it would be nice to send out some kind words.
We are all fighting for something in our lives. We all care about someone, something, etc. We all have obstacles. There are reasons change is scary.
The Founding Fathers weren’t all wonderful people; many did things we consider barbaric today. But the American Revolution was a class struggle, historical progress, and good.
Imagine how hard it must have been saying, “Actually, yeah, let’s get into a fight with the world’s foremost power.” Our troops were outnumbered four to one a lot of the time! And they still sent the Britbongers high-tailing!
Happy 4th! Especially to everyone I can not say it directly to! 😁
Happy 4th!
The left forgets the material conditions of the times. I have. I sit here at my mom's house seeing an excuse for family to get together for forgetful nostalgia of suburban life.
Fireworks celebration should begin Juneteenth and end the 4th. Capitalist should find that agreeable 😂.
