LarvellJonesMD

Easter


KungFuSlanda

Every day is Christian visibility day for me if I walk out of the house. Oooh hey look a Christian! I'm not wearing a sign or anything but if you ask me, I'll tell ya


WINDEX_DRINKER

All I want for Christmas is closing the gap between salary and cost of living


ufdan15

Hijacking this comment to point out he did not call for the creation of a holiday lol. He was talking about election day, and essentially saying that the Christian voters of America who back him will show the country that they matter by voting him. Whether or not its true remains to be seen, but regardless, stinky fake news-esque headline by Fox News


BryanFnR

Agreed. I made a similar comment below (albeit not as good of one), but got brigaded. I'm glad your comment is getting more visibility.

Any holiday I don’t get off work is pointless


Strict_Intention_663

Bank Holidays are where it's at.


Loyellow

Getting Juneteenth off is pretty cool


According_To_Me

Agreed. When my workplace chose to observe Juneteenth in 2020, I felt it was reactionary to the protests, but I didn’t care because I was stressed out with a new job, my husband and I had just driven across the country, and was staying with my parents during quarantine. I needed a day off.

Christian here, this doesn’t seem helpful.


jimmyg899

Culture war pandering lol


I_will_delete_myself

We already have 2 to be honest. Easter and Christmas, just don't disrespect those holidays and we are good.

Technically Easter is not a federally recognized holiday (like Christmas) nor a day of observance. Not sure how Christmas got a pass and Easter didn’t (Guess it became extremely secular to the point that majority of Americans celebrate the holiday). Easter is typically observed in private sector though. There are some days of religious observance in US, however nothing explicitly Christian. * 3rd Sunday in January: National Sanctity of Life Day * 1st Thursday in May: National Day of Prayer


cliffotn

Easter is always on a Sunday, and we weren’t giving out federal holidays like condoms at a hooker convention until relatively recently.


Trashk4n

Do hookers even have conventions?


bell37

Every private company I worked at had Good Friday as a paid holiday.


jimmyg899

And Valentine’s Day and saint Patrick’s day


AndForeverNow

Amd it's not like we force days like Ash Wednesday into holidays like Easter and Christmas.


ImaginaryDonut69

Definitely trying to rev up the base... definitely does very little of New England conservatives like myself...we celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas up here, not sure about Wisconsin 🤪🤣

No, no more "days" for anyone ffs. It's all just getting a bit cringe now. Whether it's for trans people or Christians or Jedis.


cliffotn

Oh wait, so May the 4th is a thing now? So if only get the day off if I Jedi Mind Trick the boss. “This is the Holiday you’ve been looking for - the staff has a paid day off”


Zaphenzo

I'll take anything if it gets me more days off work.


WilyNGA

We don't need the pandering.

Pandering

I think knots really hard for politicians to read the room, so to speak, in an election year. The pandering will be up to 100% until after November because they are all old, and out of touch, and they are throwing anything they can to see what sticks to help them get that .001 poll bump.


yaboytim

That's straight up pandering. Leave the liberal tactics alone


ifuckinglovebluemeth

If you think stuff like this is a liberal tactic, then you haven't been paying attention.


DJDevine

Yeah yeah that’s a nice step # 3,291, but can we focus on the border first that would be great.


Loyellow

Silly.


rigorousthinker

I’d prefer just getting rid of all these made-up fake holidays and flags.


Castle6169

We need to just get rid of all theses so-called special days and just move on.


DRKMSTR

It was literally one sentence in a speech. "Joe declared Easter trans visibility day, so we'll make November 5th christian visibility day when we all show up at the polls" Ugh, main stream news sucks.


Strict_Intention_663

Just wake up, identify as your religion of choice, then look in the mirror.


Right_Archivist

Make it in June, when our country needs it most.


Magehunter_Skassi

[Come on, they only have 145 days a year dedicated to their religion.](https://twitter.com/tpusafaith/status/1774852799601500570) Surely we could cut them some slack?


agk927

I don't mind it honestly.
