First Week of The Triggering Season

A couple blogposts back, I mentioned "The Triggering Season."  It's the time of year between Columbus Day and Christmas that causes weapons-grade triggering among snowflakes, woketards and self-loathing leftists.

Here in WA State, Columbus Day is unusual for a couple reasons.

First, it's a Federal Holiday, it's not a State Holiday.

Then there's Indigenous Peoples Day, which which was adopted by South Dakota in 1989 and has spread to various cities, counties and entire states.  WA State hasn't fully adopted it, but the major cities of Seattle (2014), Olympia (2015), Spokane and Yakima (2016), along with Tacoma (2018) have done so.

I happened to be off-duty and noticed it was unusually quiet in my neighborhood, despite the nice weather:  No company/utility vehicles driving around, no kids outside playing.  (I'm assuming school was in session).

I was too busy doing yard work and housework to get myself entangled in any Columbus Day protests, or hear any first-hand outrage over the day.

But apparently, Our Drunk Dialer-in-Chief managed to trigger leftists, this time by merely tweeting: Happy Columbus Day!

Leftists believe wholeheartedly in the idea of the Noble Savage.  Salty Cracker's video touched on a few examples that deconstruct this myth.

Liz Wheeler's guest also set the record straight about Columbus, the Spanish and Native Americans.

Native Americans did not act nobly 100% of the time, nor did European explorers or settlers act with completely evil intent.

In a normal world, I don't mind events or celebrations revolving around our Native Americans.

However, we live in Clown World.

A world where leftists are Hell-bent on deconstructing America, our nation's history--warts and all--along with our culture and traditions, exemplified by the vandalization of statues.

So I end up ignoring both aspects of the holiday.

As Our Grand Nagus would tweet:  Sad.

And just before ending this post, I found out that yesterday was Pronoun Day.

Welcome to Triggering Season 2019.
