Happy Thanksgiving!
Hey Counterwavers!
We’re making sure your Turkey Day isn’t just about the tryptophan coma.
This Thanksgiving, before you dive headfirst into the mashed potatoes (and maybe a heated chat with Uncle Jerry about the media), take a second.
This holiday is, at its heart, about gratitude and community. And for us, that means being grateful for the folks who challenge us, the facts that anchor us, and the freedom to think for ourselves—even when it's uncomfortable.
Think of it as a Counterwave episode in real life:
Be a Critical Consumer: Just like you fact-check the news, maybe fact-check that family legend you hear every year.
Encourage Debate (Respectfully!): Use that dinner table energy to listen. A free America means hearing people out, even if you’re certain their gravy recipe is all wrong.
Focus on the Foundation: Be thankful for the shared promise of a freer, more just society we’re all working toward. That's the real feast.
From Neils, BobbySox, Bill, and the entire production team: We are genuinely thankful for you, our sharp, critical-thinking audience. You’re what keeps the Counterwave rolling.
Wishing you a day filled with good food, great company, and the spirit of radical togetherness.
Happy Thanksgiving! Now, go earn that nap.
