Calendar used to capitulate to fascism

Google has removed Black History Month, Pride Month, Indigenous Peoples Day, Native American History Month, and Hispanic Heritage Month from populating on calendars on Android phones. This is shameful. Reinstate these calendar dates!!!

To suggest new features and give feedback directly to the calendar team, you can use the "feedback" option directly on the calendar website. It can be found in the "Settings" menu in the top right corner of the screen (the cogwheel icon)

These bootlickers have immediately shown us who they are. I thought I was the only one who noticed! Let's spread the word! Google are Nazi sympathizers. Submitting "Feedback" to the ether will accomplish nothing. Shout it out loud!

All comments sent using "Send Feedback" is read and catalogued, so it's really one of the best ways to get the attention of the calendar team, in addition to Tenley's recommendation to post on social media.

Grow a pair google. The "great" orange leader doesn't get to own facts or history.

I understand your frustration. Here is the information we have been given by Google.

Holidays shown in Google Calendar are public holidays and national observances as classified by timeanddate.com.
These public holidays and national observances were standardized in 2024 to provide people with a consistent experience across the globe.
If you wish to include additional holidays or observances, you can subscribe to a third-party calendar, import a calendar event, or create a recurring event. Visit the Google Calendar Help Center for more details on how to subscribe to calendars or import events.
To view a country’s holidays and national observances, visit the Time and Date website. To share feedback with Time and Date, please visit their site here.

And please do send feedback to Google directly through the Calendar as well, while it may seem like this goes nowhere, it is all read and popular requests are taken into consideration.

These are lies by Google in order to please the American dictator.

Furthermore, it is absolutely offensive that they are suggesting we all get to choose our own reality by choosing to include or exclude observances that absolutely do exist in order to not offend Fascist white Christian Nationalist sensibilities.

BOYCOTT.
