This year especially, and for good reason, you saw a fair share of scold posts insisting that the 4th of July is an expression of evil and that you need to have a very bad time during it or else you’re a bad person. Presumably these posts were directed to a theoretical person who A) knows all about America’s infinitely deep history of cruelty, exploitation, and inhumanity but also B) is unaware that the 4th of July is intended as a celebration of America. “I never thought of that!” This presumably real person says, reading your extremely insightful Instagram post about how America is bad, actually. “Thanks!”
