And May Day in U.S. was supplanted by Law Day ("to celebrate the rule of law") but it didn't take off because it wasn't a public holiday.
Ya can't make this up any better.
As a US-ian I can tell you this propaganda works. I grew up not knowing shit about May Day (that's like flowers in a basket, right?) or Labor Day and I routinely confused Labor Day and Veterans Day. This coming from a solidly LIB-slash-Non-Political household of teacher parents.
wait, i can't actually believe this. May 1 was specifically adopted for the Haymarket affair? and every country except the US has it as labor day? the USSR commemorated yankee labor martyrs more than the yankees
And the US straight-up replaced it with Bootlicker Day, and it's not even a national holiday. This country is so cool
