WaPo Weighs in on Genocide and a Brutal Massacre in the Violent History of Pumpkin Spice

Wow, this is really bad. X is overflowing with tweets (or xeets) about the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel last weekend, in which more than 1,200 Israelis were massacred. Speaking of violent massacres, have you heard about the violent history of … pumpkin spice?

OK, this tweet is from October 8, the day after the Hamas sneak attack. The timing is still amazingly tacky and as a bonus, who cares? White women. White women care about their pumpkin spice.

Get this correction:

Correction: A previous version of this article incorrectly reported that sales of pumpkin spice products (not including those at restaurants and coffee shops) totaled more than $802 billion in the year ending July 2023. It was $802 million, according to NielsenIQ. This article has been corrected.

Missed it by that much.

Maham Javaid reports:

After a swift Bandanese surrender, the victors rounded up local leaders. They signed treaties that turned the Bandanese into Dutch subjects, then tortured them for confessions revealing alleged plots to attack the Dutch.

Thousands were killed, others enslaved, and many who fled to the mountains were starved out.

“The population of around 15,000 Bandanese was decimated to just a few hundred in a few months,” said Adam Clulow, a historian and professor at the University of Texas at Austin. “The Dutch company was later accused of carrying out what some describe as the first instance of corporate genocide.”

“And it was all for nutmeg,” he said.

I'll remember this on Thanksgiving Day, or whatever they call it now when I have pumpkin pie.

The Washington Post is really on the pumpkin spice beat:

The Washington Post just killed 240 jobs, but the clowns who write these are still working?
