    I hope it covers the name cause it’s a pretty dumb sounding name like if I had to guess everything would be focused on the 16th since june is the sixth month

      It’s literally just a portmanteau of June Nineteenth.

      Portmanteaus are super common and lots of fun. I have no idea why you’d take issue with this particular one.

        Portmanteau is a fun word as well!

        Using the 16th would also be a portmanteau but the nineteenth is almost rhyming which might be some other special thing

      A Lemmy classic. Commenting on the content without having looked at the content.

        I was just saying I hope it’s something covered since I couldn’t watch it at the time, honestly I’ve only started hearing about juneteenth in the last couple years

      He does! It’s not a number that black people made up.
