Mainstreaming Juneteenth is kind of a perfect example of everything the woke do in their culture war, because it simultaneously (1) is the kind of thing they can make others feel like they have to participate in (and wokies can scream at them if they don’t) while also (2) being very fraught with the likelihood that the non-wokies will “do it wrong” or “get it wrong,” (and in that case wokies can scream at them for THAT). I don’t have a single problem with the holiday, groups can decide what’s important to them and when/how to celebrate, but I think what I just described is an obvious phenomenon that pervades every last bit of wokeness and the ways by which they seek to make cultural gains.
Add to it, what does this dopey-ass writer expect? His movement constantly demands that other people and organizations “see” them, celebrate them, just stfu and include them. Making the holiday mainstream is the kind of thing they wanted. Now they got it and they don’t want it anymore? I don’t really believe that (I think the dopey-ass writer is just executing the second technique I mentioned above) but if they don’t like, what happens if it gets taken away again? I bet then this dopey-ass writer would put out an article saying how awesome Juneteenth was when it was just him and the fam, that it became lame when they desegregated it, but that now giving it back to just the fam is like totally the worst thing ever. Can’t win with these cocksuckers, so people should just stop playing.
