How come we were supposed to say happy hearts day? WTF is so wrong with Happy Valentines day?

The goal for twi is for them to OWN you. To do that, they have to be the dominant force in

your life. To do THAT, they can't let you have any freedom- freedom to think, freedom to

live where you want, freedom to choose, freedom to do your own thing.

When it comes to any holiday, people have expectations to DO things. twi can either

short-circuit the holiday (schedule an event so you can't have Thanksgiving, which

happened several years with an Advanced Class Special), or take over the holiday.

In taking over the holiday, they leave what you wanted to do (at least in part), but

RENAME it so they own it and your language isolates you from people outside twi,

and they make small changes or additions here and there so eventually the holiday isn't

quite the same one as the rest of the US experiences. That's why they renamed a few

holidays.

It's about CONTROL.
