Yes, it is a deliberate attempt to dismantle and untie labor rights celebrations from their Communist origins.
I didn't even learn about the Haymarket bombing until I was thirty. It's like Armistice day became memorial day and no one is ever told that it was originally a day to reflect on the horrors of war and now it's all just olive drab hero worship. We are intentionally under educated in the US
