Each year I writeabout Black Friday, that fabricated holiday that corporate and capitalist
leaders came up with to promote an orgy of gift selling and buying. I’ve never
really liked this holiday, especially since I am a socialist and this phenomenon
is the antithesis of my beliefs, but I have to admit that it is almost amusing,
the sheer silliness of it. Most people who take part in this orgy of consumerism
wait until the day after Thanksgiving and they get up at ridiculously early
hours to buy things no one really needs really cheap at the stores who promote
this holiday.
This is a prelude to the Christmas season, two months, or more, of
shopping for gifts for family members and friends. People spend a ridiculous amount
of money on people who will probably never appreciate all the money, time and
effort it took to buy all these gifts for this gift-giving season, based on a
holiday about a poor god-man who was supposedly born on this day to promote a
religion that seems to have little to do with the actual Christmas holiday.
It almost seems that venders can hardly wait for the Christmas season
to begin. Christmas decorations go up in the stores the day after Halloween.
Corporations can hardly wait to begin hawking their wares. This year many
stores couldn’t wait for the traditional Black Friday sail to begin, so they
have started early.[1]
Many Black Friday sales have started already.
Every year I make fun of Black Friday and post satirical songs and
pictures. This year I’m starting Early to keep up with the stores. I will have
another posting for the actual real day of Black Friday, which should be
November 23.
