Notice how the sjw's kept quiet about that little event over the last few days that leads to the inhuman slaughter of millions of innocent animals?

Same with Easter, Christmas, Australia Day, Boxing Day, Anzac Day, Remembrance Day, New Years. Let's just get rid of them all why we are at it, we musn't offend a sole

Father's day should be kept as a day to pay reverence to fathers worldwide. Just because you don't have a father or a father worth respecting does not mean we should do away with a day dedicated to all the good fathers out there.

Better believe there's outrage.

This non-existent war on fathers day is nice warm up for the non-existent war on christmas. A couple more years and some these mainstream media tabloid boobs will start churning out books about which these lemmings will lap up.
It'll never happen. The Red Pill is doing the rounds, top seller in fact. Dr Red Ruby Scarlet lives in an echo chamber, the peanut, and Clementine Ford is having a number done on her atm and she had a baby boy rofl. Great time to be a femtard.
Lol, you don't get to take the moral high ground on Eid unless you're a vegan yourself.
Furthermore, I don't like to come the defence of Islam ever, but this Eid is a time of giving. From what I understand, Muslims give much of the meat they procure to the less fortunate.

Never heard of Eid before, but just had a quick read about it. Seems they eat/give to others to eat all the meat anyway - is that right?
If they just slaughtered them and left the carcasses I could see an issue with it, but if they're eating the meat then I can't see the problem (from the perspective of an avid carnivore that is - I can obviously see how vegans etc would take issue).
Yet none of this type of issue arose around Mother's Day. Must be patriarchy and all that.

What if the mother has transitioned into a male?

Fathers' Day - a rare opportunity to get s**t-faced in front of the kids.

Don't confuse him.
Don't children with gay parents have 2 mothers or 2 fathers? Why cant they also celebrate both mothers and fathers day?
I would be happy to do away with the commercialism surrounding Fathers Day and the like. Celebrating fathers, or father figures, and their role in society is a valuable and worthwhile sentiment. I don't think it needs to be expressed through buying power tools or Lynx deoderant gift sets though.
More to the point of the thread, it did always make me uncomfortable come Mothers or Fathers Day as I had close friends growing up who had lost one or both of their parents and I couldn't imagine how heartbreaking the day would be for them. So all bullshit advertising and over the top social media tributes, I would be happy to get rid of. But the core idea of the day I think needs to remain.

Should we do away with birthdays? Losing a family member/friend is hard especially when they are not around on their birthdate
Not sure how that would work nor why you quoted me to suggest that, I didn't say Fathers Day needs to go.
