"As an outside to the US I've always found it odd that they have a holiday for being thankful yet seem to be so incredibly ungrateful and resentful. I've noticed a lot of this messaging of "cursing" the fact that you have to spend time with family members over the years and it's just a shame that people are incentivised to cut their own family off for the sake of governmental power who can totally be trusted to redistribute wealthy equally"
Millions of households approach Thanksgiving with different serving styles, including family-style platters and buffet lines. Plates frequently feature turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and assorted potatoes, with some people preferring minimal vegetables.

Smaller gatherings may serve alternative mains like roast duck or pork tenderloins. Strong preferences and humor appear alongside sharper critiques about gratitude, family dynamics, and consumerism.
