It's the communist Christmas y'all. I am looking forward to a day of unity, marches, and workers getting together.
For most of the world it seems to be a day off (not looking at you, The Netherlands).
Enjoy!

Happy labor day comrades. Apart from Holland (cringe) where else in the world is it NOT considered a day off?
This weirdly says that Belgium has it on a different day which is not true
Yeah
Sweden definitely celebrates it as labor day, lots of marches and stuff
True, but officially?
I couldnt find it referenced as anything but labor day anywhere, but who knows I suppose!
Labor Memorial Day, I think.
There's May Day and then there's Labor Day sometime in the second half of the year.
Why is India and Sri Lanka not red? We do celebrate? It's an actual holiday?
I think only informally.
It is formal though. The state recognizes it as a holiday.
tru
It's an official holiday in Denmark, so this map isn't correct
Yeah, we celebrate May Day in America only informally.
In Canada, we get the day off, but not until September.
Another Canadian oof.
The US
Yeah, only informally at best.
Australia, for starters... which makes sense.
