Ah ok, so it's not like a specific anniversary of an event? Just a general thing that it has been decided happens at that time
So it’s technically meant to commemorate when the Pilgrims and the Native Americans had (effectively) a three day ceasefire and a three day harvest festival and all ate together. I’m pretty sure this actually happened but then when that ended it was a racist bloodbath

But what it’s meant to be is a day where you focus on “what you’re thankful for” - and it’s not (in the grand scheme of things) materialistic and a three day break from work where you eat with your friends and fam

This is legit interesting. I once tried to ask on Reddit but a load of teenage boys made fun of me. (we, the British, have had more than our fair share of racist bloodbaths so it would be most unfair of me to criticise)
