Harper's Bazaar Writer: Become Annoyingly Political at Thanksgiving Dinner
Newsbusters ^ | November 22, 2018 | P.J. Gladnick

Posted on 11/22/2018 6:16:11 AM PST by PJ-Comix

There are many things to be thankful for this Thanksgiving and among them is the thought that chip-on-her-shoulder Harper's Bazaar writer Rachel Elizabeth Cargle will not be sitting at your Thanksgiving table (unless you are at that one very unfortunate table where she will be sitting).

Why? Because Cargle has come up with a bunch of ways to destroy the Thanksgiving mood by going annoyingly political as you can read in her November 19 article, "How to Talk to Your Family About Racism on Thanksgiving."

Cargle kicks things off by dispensing advice from a famous American Communist:

The part about the Moscato was no joke. I stocked up on it and damn the carbs for Thanksgiving! I still have a whole month after it to try to reach my goal by the December weigh-in.

p.s. Except for the stuffing. I think I have a No Carb alternative for that.

Funny how the conservative-minded folks don’t usually write articles on how to trash and embarrass the left-minded in your family on the holiday get togethers.

Wow....I read her article.

Stupid, moronic, idiot is the only way to describe her lying rant...

At my table she would last two minutes before I tossed her ass out the door.

You pull that crap at my table and you will find yourself eating outside with the local wildlife. Maybe one of the bears will have you for Thanksgiving.

The hubris of journalistas who think we need their advice and instruction on how to celebrate a holiday they don’t even believe in.

What is it with liberals and Thanksgiving - it seems to make them crazier than usual:

It’s been nearly ten years since my nephew tried to pull this stunt at the gathered family Thanksgiving dinner. His fatal error might have been that he chose his grandmother as his object lesson. One can be contentious, or even disagreeable - but heaven help the poor schmuck who insults grandma!

His uncles (this one included) mocked and teased him mercilessly and drove him from the gathering, inviting him to return any time he was feeling frosty enough.

I don’t doubt that there are plenty of these lefty loons foolish enough to attempt this, but I doubt that very few achieve what they feeeeeeeeel they want to achieve.

Well, I’m thankful that all people at our Thanksgiving table are of one mind. That includes my niece’s black husband who had been Dem for his whole life, but has converted due to the gun issue; he loves his guns. (Now the jobs issue has reinforced his conversion.) And that also includes my nephew and his wife who, 10 years ago, said they didn’t see what was wrong with socialism. Everyone grew up, started good careers, and had families.

Oh look! What a surprise it’s another whining minority who is full of hate and jealousy.

There is a use for those big turkey thigh bones (after the meat is gone, of course).

I have used one on a fellow guest at a rather raucous Thanksgiving in my college days. Not, for political tomfoolery, though I suspect it would work just fine for that, too.

Thanks God we didn’t invite her or any of her commie friends. After all, Communism has worked out SO well around the world. Perhaps I should reconsider....?

So my question as always is if someone is a true liberal, what are they doing at any event related to Thanksgiving?

One would think that after the last few decades of leftists recommending being complete Clymers at Thanksgiving dinner, few would ever be invited again.

IMHO! I intend to respond to criticism with: “I served my country; I’m entitled to my beliefs”. If that fails, a well-placed plate to the puss will do.

Become annoyingly — LIBERALLY — political and you can get your meal at the local homeless shelter for all I care. You don’t have the right to come to my home and start judging my political beliefs or imposing yours on my guests.

Alas...... my sister in law will not be here for Thanksgiving.

She made some strident Obama loving observation last year and was to my susprise instantly and stongly countered by my son.

She is sulking, narrowmindedly sulking.

If anyone tries to start that shit, then they have to leave. We’ll fix them a plate to go. They can wait outside for it.
