I'm sure a few shitters will wait until tomorrow to give their shit takes on Twitter about the holiday, but I did have one customer complain about how we're basically giving Black Lives Matter a holiday now.

And another one was pissed off because "we're just making up words now and calling it a holiday". I guess he doesn't realize that literally every holiday is just a made up word or series of words but im not gonna waste my breath explaining that.

No, nothing yet. We had a Fathers Day thing today, and I doubt anyone involved knows what Juneteenth is.

this is a valid complaint. BLM wants equality and all they got was a holiday

I've heard some garbage takes last year from some people saying Juneteenth should replace July 4th as our Independence Day.

I mean we weren't truly an independent nation until Juneteenth anyway, if you consider that the basis of all of us having freedom and soverignty.

Idk if this will get labeled as a garbage take...it is kinda more of a question than a take though.

But I think Juneteenth is an odd name. I understand that it comes from the day that the union army arrived in Texas to announce the emancipation proclamation.

Why make the holiday June 19th around that one specific announcement, and not the day the emancipation proclamation was signed? I can see why they wouldn't want to double up with New Years Day, but why not the day it was announced in another state, why Texas?

I'm sure my mom will say "Juneteenth" in a really mocking tone if it somehow gets brought up. Because I'm sure the radio station she listens to has told her that BLM Antifa bullied far-left Joe Biden into giving in to their ridiculous demands. "If they think they're still slaves, then maybe they should move somewhere else."

Not being American the only one Ive seen is that we should also make Juneteenth a holiday. No. Why should we celebrate an American emancipation date when we can celebrate the date we did it decades earlier?

Texas was the last stop for the Union Army to tell the Confederates the Emancipation Proclamation made their slaves free.

Check the Facebook pages of your local news outlets, more specifically the comments section for any story about Juneteenth. Chances are you'll see some foul shit

Guy 1: "You're in here early."
Guy 2: "I had today off."
Guy 1: confused "For...Father's Day?"
Guy 2: "Juneteenth."
Guy 1: "Pfft, well, that's ONE good thing about Juneteenth I guess..."
