With another July 4 under our belts, the media has chosen to take a look at those who no longer celebrate.

In fact, in a recent article, the far-left NY Times wrote a sympathetic portrait of those who used to love Independence Day and now find it a big hassle.

Here’s why some people are no longer breaking out the fireworks for ID…

The NYT profiled various people who no longer celebrated ID4, including Malaya Tapp of Arkansas. Tapp grew up being very excited about July 4, but that began to wane as she got older.

Now, by 18, she’s done with celebrating because of “Black Lives Matter” and how it made her lose many of her “patriotic” feelings.

She also said she finds the fireworks scary because they sound like gunshots and it makes her worry there’s a shooting somewhere. Plus, Tapp says, the chemicals from the fireworks have lots of “toxic chemicals” and aren’t good for air quality.

One young lady who’s got brain rot from leftism, you may say, so what? Well, the trouble is that Tapp is far from alone…

A recent YouGov Poll discovered that 44% of Americans didn’t celebrate July 4 in 2023. That’s a lot of people who didn’t plan to go to any festivities or fireworks.

It’s not a good look for such a great country. The NYT takes a look at another non-partaker, a tech executive in her late 20s named Marissa Vivori.

Vivori last celebrated a few years ago and stopped because she feels sad for dogs and animals who get scared by fireworks.

Vivori also said that Roe versus Wade being struck down by the Supreme Court made her no longer want to “celebrate.”

So this year she’s going to England, instead. Just a suggestion, but how about she stays there?
