Yep, culturally juneteenth may not be super relevant to me. I still support it and don’t dislike it. Disliking it just seems weird. What’s to dislike? Right? Likewise MLK.
Columbus though all my fellow first nations say fuck Columbus. And support everyone else in saying it.
The results of the survey are sad but I must say the phrasing is weird. “Least-favorite” doesn’t necessarily mean “dislike”. I’d have probably said “Columbus Day” or “MLK” is my least favorite since I don’t get the day off and it’s not something I personally celebrate. I do not however dislike MLK day… I’ve always been surprised and a bit saddened that it wasn’t a holiday at my company. It seemed disrespectful to someone and something worthy of a holiday. They did get a little better and make Juneteenth a holiday at least, which surprised me.
Not sure how the survey was done so don’t know if participants were forced to rank them all from most to least favorite or not. If so being least favorite doesn’t mean dislike or necessarily have a negative connotation. However if the survey actually used the term “dislike” I wouldn’t necessarily be surprised by the same results, sadly.
Yeah that and the MLK day were very telling.
