Fuck the pilgrims. The Quakers were the actual progressive Christians who came to Colonial America to avoid religious persecution. They also literally preached the acceptance of all to recreate the Garden of Eden. If any Christian groups should be celebrated on Thanksgiving it should be the Quakers, not the persecution-crazy witch-hunting demons.
