Thanksgiving feast being a coming together & celebration of mutual aid
between the Pequot Nation’s peoples & the Pilgrims (many of whose leaders
were military veterans of Europe’s 30 yrs wars, & other adventures), the
first Thanksgiving feast in 1637 was hosted by Governor Winthrop of
Massachusetts to honor a militia who had just slaughtered approximately 700
Pequot Nation’s men, women & children. (Others were enslaved, some taken to
Europe for the entertainment fo various royal courts.) We have been unable to
find any terms of endearment for these genocidal motherless fucks, these
“Puritans”—& welcome any lexicographic or linguistic references.
