We crammed it into the calendar immediately before Thanksgiving, where we celebrate what we did to the natives.

Be sure to also avoid any Oktoberfest celebrations this month! After all it lead to the murder of 12 million people!
Or is it possible to celebrate German culture without constantly bringing up horrible things Germans have done in history? Maybe it's possible that it wasn't beer and lederhosen that lead to genocide?
Could it also be that eating a turkey dinner with your family also doesn't lead to genocide?
