People like yourself require it for validation. I certainly wouldn't take that from you.
Imagine being so mad at something so frivolous.

How do I melt about this without making it obvious I'm melting?
It's ok if you think cultural observations are melting
They're not, but I'm ok with you pretending otherwise because parsing through actual dialogue is a challenge

Would you like to feel more special by recognizing your autism?

This is true. And Friendsgiving will probably contribute to that in some small and largely isolated ways, although not the original purpose of the idea.

Straight white republican male. Can confirm we used to do this in college the Wednesday before Thanksgiving with our friends and fraternity people.

Completely straight or mostly straight?

Yeah, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. I may personally think calling it "Friendsgiving" is kind of dumb, but it doesn't have to be some Rousseauian plot to subvert the American holiday tradition. That being said, now that I know that it makes Roger run outside and yell at clouds, I'm all for using it as much as possible.

We didn’t call it anything but the night before or night of thanksgiving was when we all went out to party because people were back in town. As we all got married and had kids, it slowly ended.

don’t think it’s meant to be political, I think it’s just something people started doing to celebrate with friends they actually like before doing Thanksgiving with their families

I'm sure we're just scratching the surface of things that fall into the categories of 1) real and 2) things you cannot fathom

It comes from people getting together with friends rather than going home with family.
I don't see why that would necessitate a name change. It wasn't Familysgiving before.

Something basic white women made up as an excuse to get together with their girlfriends and drink wine while the husbands and kids sit around pretending to like each other.
Can confirm, married to a woman who had a "Live, Love, Laugh" sign in our house until it got "broken" in a move. We already have two Friendsgivings planned

t's for friends getting together for Thanksgiving when they can't be with family
So why do they have to call it something else? This has gone on for years before now, and it was still called thanksgiving— for food and those very friends they were with. It’s still Thanksgiving, whether you are thankful for family, friends, enemies, etc. No need to be cute with it.
