		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;Do you have any response to the standing point that Governor Brown “assigned to every family a parcel of land, according to the proportion of their number”?&lt;/blockquote&gt;
What exactly is the point here? That 100% collective farm nonsense did not appear out of clear sky like dew and did not evaporate in a hour or two likewise? Well, duh. So? 

Still, they tried the stupid thing, then abandoned it after complete failure.

That at some points they tried and subsequently abandoned somewhat less stupid things… contradict this exactly how?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[T. Beholder:

&lt;blockquote&gt;
You seem to be arguing with your imagination. Did you win?

Do you endorse my policy proposal to redistribute wealth and opportunity from banking corporations to sensitive young men rather than the other way around?

&lt;blockquote&gt;
The point stands that according to the witnesses, Thanksgiving celebrated the great relief caused by end of a collectivist utopia...
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Do you have any response to the standing point that Thanksgiving began in Protestant England and became ethnocultural and mythic in America, the Land of the Anglo Protestants? Do you have any response to the standing point that Governor Brown &quot;assigned to every family a parcel of land, according to the proportion of their number&quot;? Do you have any response to the standing point that your belief system implicitly results in historically unprecedented concentration of the means of production at the expense of everyone except faraway rentier shareholders?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jim says: &lt;blockquote&gt;If every family were assigned a parcel of land today you would cry SOCIALISM or COMMUNISM or some other such nonsense because embedded deep and immutable in your ideological construct&lt;/blockquote&gt; You seem to be arguing with your imagination. Did you win?
&lt;blockquote&gt;But if you want to get really particular about it, you could say that Thanksgiving began with the English Reformation and grew into the holiday I described in North America, an ethnocultural implicit celebration by the American Anglo Protestant for the bounty he found and took in North America.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Why would I say that?

The point stands that according to the witnesses, Thanksgiving celebrated the great relief caused by end of a collectivist utopia, which per testimonies had problems now known as very characteristic to its kind.

At some point the whole story obviously wound up distorted in a peculiar way: to bleach this part out, brush those failures off as something that “just happened”, and skip over to the last part (where teh Injuns got involved).

Obviously, if the goal was to focus on teh Injuns as such, whether they saved the silly settlers specifically from the results of naive communism, agricultural ignorance or bad luck would be unimportant, and need no changes beyond slight trimming. Thus it seems this was the entire point, making those efforts a part of good old «Nevar Been Tried» campaign. Which is obviously not a short-term fad, and the subject is within its area of interest.]]></description>
