It’s kind of weird being a non-American on the internet. I remember that US Thanksgiving was something I had no idea about before the internet, and when I did learn about it I also learnt about it as a day that signified genocide. And then I found out about “Black Friday”… I thought it was a day for remembering the genocide but when I discovered it was a day for sales I was kind of agog. Here in Australia we use the phrase “Black Friday” for when really bad bushfires occur on Fridays.
