Dutchie here. Apart from the purely religious (easer, whitsuntide, etc) and commercial ones (e.g. Valentine’s day), I really loathe King’s Day. It is the day that our propogandists expect us to ‘celebrate’ our monarchy. They ‘mingle’ among the people (that is, they are paraded around waving at dumb fucks in orange clothes) and ‘spontenously’ join in old-timey games with said dumb fucks. It’s a celebration of nationalism and nostalgia -in-an-icky-way.
Another one is Liberation Day. I am anti-fascist and my grandparents witnessed the horrors of WW2 first hand, so I appreaciate the idea of it. However, it is not an official bank holiday as the employers’ lobby decided it was not and with a former ultra right gorvernment, it has lost all meaning to me.
