this holiday is to shut the workers up for the other 364 days
On may day all over the world workers go on parade and yell about workers rights. They are given this day so they can remember the people who actually did something. but this day is like giving a baby a lollipop so they can make them behave. While all the working class are yelling and protesting, the fat cats just deal with it for one day then send them all back to work. By giving them this one day the workers feel like they have used their power when really they are just screaming to deaf ears. This day isnt meaningful because while it does remember the people who were killed, nothing gets done and nothing is acomplished.

I think you make a good point that nothing is accomplished and it is just one day. Also I like your metaphors "screaming to death ears". But I guess it satisfies the workers somehow although it seems like they got diluted to the fact that they are powerless.
