Well, they would have probably felt good about it because they invented it .
Whomever wrote the above answer is sorely mistaken and not surprisingly, misinformed.
While there are many different nations with people who have different beliefs and attitudes, the subject of Thanksgiving is not a happy one for most American Indians, as you might guess. Most people I know have adapted the patriotic songs and stories of "Americans", such as "Land of the Pilgrim's pride" , to include indians.
Quite frankly, the stories told in elementary school history and social studies are not true. The first Americans are not happy that more than 60 million of their ancestors were wiped out. The Jewish Holocaust (=bad Nazi, in public opinion) was nearly 6 million. The American holocaust (=good American) was over 60 million.
For my family, Thanksgiving was a time when everyone had time off of work/school, so we'd get together as a family, but we also remembered our ancestors who died in the name of the European God. Thanksgiving, for us, is a way of life, every day. It is not just one day where we feast. Columbus Day, as you might imagine, is not celebrated, either.

Who celebrates Thanksgiving now?
1) People outside the US don't celebrate Thanksgiving, at least not on the fourth Thursday in November. Some countries have their own special days for giving thanks, but the November one is a US holiday. Likewise, people who immigrated to the US recently might not be aware of it and not celebrate it for that reason. 2) Jehovah's Witnesses, for a variety of reasons, don't celebrate Thanksgiving. 3) Some Native Americans don't. It is a holiday that celebrates the Pilgrims surviving their first year in the Americas, and it basically all went downhill for Native Americans from there. Plus the Thanksgiving story that is told in schools is not very accurate. Many Native Americans have a Day of Mourning on Thanksgiving, or celebrate just family and togetherness. 4) A lot of people just don't like the fuss. They are not interested in the historical or religious roots of the holiday, don't watch football, and don't like cooking an unnecessarily fancy meal.
