Because it was the Last Thursday BCE.

Fun fact: it’s actually called “Maundy Thursday.” No, I don’t know what that means without looking it up.
Why not because it was supposed to be Jesus’s last Thursday?
A misconception that seems to be surprisingly common.
BCE refers to before the guy’s supposed birth. Easter is about his death, in around 33 CE, and has nothing to do with how we count years.
It’s all made up anyway so I’m gonna make it from his death and party like it’s 1993
You do you, just don’t come complaining to me when your bank account suffers the y2k bug.

Nope. Still doesn’t make sense.
I’m just calling easter Dawn of the Dead. Since Jesus was zombified or whatever
This makes zero sense.
Jesus is estimated to have been born between 6 BCE to 4 BCE and estimated to have died in either 30 CE or 33 CE.
So the first Good Friday would have been in 30 CE or 33 CE.
The last Holy Thursday BCE technically doesn’t exist because it wouldn’t be a thing until at least 30 years later.
Moreover, the last Thursday BCE would be in December of 1 BCE when Jesus was a child because the switch from BCE to CE happened when the year switched.
Spending way too much energy breaking down the timeline of Harry Potter’s life and death tbh.
Might confuse the Last Thursdayists
I’m the only Last Thursdayist I know an it makes sense to me.
Except for one week a year where the two religions can live in harmony.
