My crazy coworker is back at it.


We had a heated conversation this morning. She said that anyone who celebrates Thanksgiving and Black Friday is only perpetuating white supremacy and a system of racial white Herrenvolk, in which white people reign supreme over Native American and black bodies.


She said that Black Friday is a racist holiday, because foolish black people buy things from evil white people who are just in corporations to exterminate and brutalize Black youth.


Is she right? Are Thanksgiving and Black Friday just holidays that exploit black and Indian people?

I love Black Friday! I love watching the videos of idiots trampling each other trying to be first to piles of Chinese made junk they likely don't need just because they can buy it cheap.

She has some screws loose due to her own conservative/factionist nature (and probably in great help from factionist religions). She only disagrees with things when she sees historically indoctrinated boogeymen (her "enemies") involved. As soon as Republicans find wiggle room to distance themselves strongly from white-supremacists, she will easily convert. Thanksgiving and Black Friday exploit anyone willing to be exploited.

Black Friday being after ThanksGiving is such an ironic joke in itself

I think your coworker has been smoking too much peyote. Tell her to have a turkey leg and chill.

That's really not as common anymore. More shopping on black friday is done online now. Those videos you see are not the norm.

I love to irritate people like this even more.

Go buy a big Thanksgiving cornucopia display and put it prominently on your desk where everyone can see it. Go shopping on Black Friday and then come to work and talk about all the great deals you got, and how much money you saved.

You seriously asking is she right?
Your co worker has a screw loose and a chip on her shoulder.

It sounds like your coworker needs to be institutionalized. She needs help. Something that Trump has not done yet that really needs to be done is bringing back the mental institutions (insane asylums). With all this PC neurosis and TDS going around, these folks really need some help. I'd even be willing to support tax dollars going to this humanitarian cause.
