Why are black people so happy federal workers get another holiday?

[Anonymous]

This June teen Stuff gives nothing at all to most people. Yet you have a lot of people acting like this is a world changing event not just another federal holiday for government workers if you're not a government worker why are you celebrating your life did not change at all if your government worker you got another day off work paid.

[Ez-Bri-Z]

Do you literally think it is just because of a day off and not because of what it actually stands for? Its representation, the same way we have July 4th, veterans and memorial day, etc.

I'm sure you can love without the dmv for a day to recognize what this day actually meant to so many.

[Ez-Bri-Z]

It does absolutely nothing you get nothing. It's like an elementary school teacher putting a sticker on your paper when you do good it does nothing just makes you feel good

[Ez-Bri-Z]

Does nothing. Makes you feel good.

Which is it?

[Asker]

Just making you feel good does nothing do you not understand that. It's a pointless maneuver that just helps give government workers more time off and ignorant people like you cheer it on thinking they're getting something

[Ez-Bri-Z]

Cool. So you ready to give up all the other federal holidays so you can visit the dmv on Christmas day?

How about the 4th of July?

I couldn't care less about getting another day off. This is about what the holiday itself is about. I'll give up Columbus day if you just want to keep the number of days off the same.

[Asker]

Yep end all federal holidays they're all very stupid. You're missing the point unless your government worker you don't get A-day off you go to work. This is just a give away to government workers. Who are already very highly paid and very highly privileged they get a total like 6 weeks paid off a year.

[Ez-Bri-Z]

I mean, I get it off too and im not a federal worker *shrug*

[Asker]

So you work for the government somewhere but because you don't directly work for the government but for someone who probably gets a government contract and has to follow all the government laws to qualify the put a contract you think you don't work for the government when you do.

Sounds like this is the real reason why you're defending this you just want A-day off

[Ez-Bri-Z]

Nope I dont work for the government in any capacity whatsoever. I work in a tech field actually for a very large non government business.

I just told you I don't care about the day off. Before they cut back on ot and holiday pay with the pandemic I would work the holidays anyway. Easy money at double time and a half.

[Asker]

So get rid of all federal holidays then why are you so defending this it's obvious you just want A-day off and you're using this is an excuse you're a lazy entitled little bitch

[Ez-Bri-Z]

I question your reading comprehension at this point.

This could be a great opportunity though. You could use the day off to maybe take some online remedial English courses. You could use it to work on your own personal hygiene. When you are done with that you can work on sexual satisfaction because you can simply just go f*ck yourself.

Any one of those options will work well for you and I strongly recommend you take this time that was afforded to you by those who sacrificed their lives in the effort to end slavery in this country, to better yourself.

If not, just reread my last option for you and just keep rinsing and repeating it.

[Asker]

Yup now you're upset that I figured you out you're just a lazy entitled little bitch Wanting pay days off work that's all you cared about.

[Ez-Bri-Z]

Upset? Only that the education system failed you.

[Asker]

You're the one who only cares about getting days off you know that's all you care about. This is just a big scam so government employees and people tied to the government like yourself can get more time off because they're lazy

[Ez-Bri-Z]

🤭

This isn't even a real debate anymore. Why are you making this boring for me? I thought you might actually prove to be fun to play with. Disappointing.

[Asker]

You're not debating you're just crying that you deserve freetime off and be paid for it. This holiday means nothing you just are a lazy entitled little bitch who want time off

[Miristheiss]

I have known about the Emancipation Proclamatiom my entire life.
158 years ago.
It is on a calendar now. Ok.
Social justice sheep are never satisfied.

[QuietRunner]

I will take the time to reflect on how General Grant, General Sherman, General Sheridan, and the 2,128,948 Union soldiers fought so hard to free the 3.9 million humans in bondage from the rebels in the 11 States that seceded from the United States of American.

I'm happy that Federalism was restored and the 11 traitorous States were beaten into submission for trying to break away. Victory to President Lincoln! Victory to General Grant! Long live the Republic!!

[Asker]

Too bad get to work the government workers who don't care about you get the day off they'll be laughing as you serve them

[jshm2]

You must be a new kind of stupid.

The point is the American government recognising it as a day of importance. What comes of it matters little at this point.

No doubt in a few years it will get as big as Thanksgiving. But until then, its a day on the calendar, that American history was changed.

[Asker]

Your whole logic is basically like an elementary school teacher putting a sticker on your paper because you did good and you think you're getting some recognition when you're just getting a cheap little sticker that means nothing. American history was not changed all that changed is government workers get A-day off.

[Anonymous]

That ding dong said that Juneteenth represents something like the 4th of July. LOL

No one gives a shit what the 4th of July represents. It represents hamburgers and beer. That's it. And if the 4th falls on a Saturday, then the government workers will demand Thursday and Friday off. Why? What does July 2nd and July 3rd represent? Nothing.

[Asker]

It represents nothing other than A-day off for lazy entitled workers who already get tons of days off already.

[Curmudgeon]

Unlike the utterly bogus Kwanzaa, it is based upon REAL historical events (the last of the slaves freed and Reconstruction fully implemented, June 19, 1865). I actually like it.

[Asker]

Did you even read the question if you do not respond properly I removing all your further posts because now you're just spamming

[Curmudgeon]

If experience is anything to go by, they will take away a holiday elsewhere (examples, Columbus Day - way to snub those Italian Americans, or consolidating Washington's and Lincoln's Birthdays).

[Asker]

They didn't remove the holidays they just renamed them on the state level on the federal level there named the same for the most part. Like I said this does absolutely nothing this is all just benefiting federal workers and other government workers when they state catch up getting A-day off black people absolutely get nothing from this yet their celebrating. From how their celebrating you would think the government said all black people get this day off.

[Curmudgeon]

people distracted by baubles and trinkets, yes, it is sad.

[Anonymous]

I've never understood why "public servants" are treated much better than the public they serve. Fuck them and all of their paid holidays.
I wish Christmas was still called Christmas, because then congress would have to work through it, instead of calling it some bullshit winter break.

[Asker]

Because they control the government and their very corrupt so they get into government just to pay themselves very highly and do very little work. It's a reason it's next to impossible to get a government job unless there's a family member who has that government job to give you a recommendation

[Opinion Owner]

Very true. I've been trying to get a government job and it's next to impossible.

[TheorionMage]

For the SAME reason the majority of the populace of Washington DC
is colloquially nicknamed 'Chocolate City' especial N. E. DC.

PONDER that... ;)

[JesseJayNeak]

The government doesn't care as long as they can capture gullible minds

[Agape93]

Why are you bitching about a holiday?

[Asker]

All it does for my life is make it so the banks are closed and every government office is closed less time to go to the envy now it actually makes your life worse unless you're a government worker

[BIG-BLACK-Robinson]

Black Independence Day

[Asker]

Yet they get nothing for it unless they work for the government and everyone working for the government gets this day off it actually makes the average person's life harder need to go to the DMV too bad it's another day close need to do anything government related too bad their clothes because they get another day off. You literally get no benefit from this only government workers do

[NightHawk99]

Because we get another holiday too.
