War on this, war on that, okay, bro. How about you go to war on your inability to speak to people you’re attracted to?

There are two holidays; Christmas and New Years, and often you won't see someone for a span of time that encompasses both of them, so wishing happy holidays, happy new year, and merry Christmas all carry identical sentiment.

What is this argument even about? Hanukkah? A minor holiday that even Jews don't care all that much about? Kwanzaa? A holiday no one celebrates anymore?

I don't get it.

I think Kwanzaa was a holiday invented by californian activists and spearheaded by a domestic abuser.

The entire thing just seems like American activists were searching for some connection to Africa while the Africans were just celebrating christmas instead, or whatever hyper specific holiday a local tribe had.

I'm not at all convinced that the "various tribes of Africa" would be all to enthused to celebrate a shared holiday not based on Islam or Christianity.

Dude just took some harvest celebrations and added a San Francisco spin to it, then later assaulted some Women.

It's not much different then European folks not really celebrating Thanksgiving and having their own local customs.

Right wing media manufactured a "war on christmas" story. Nobody actually cares if you say merry christmas or happy holidays

It’s so manufactured one of googles most popular questions when you search about ‘saying merry Christmas’ is ‘is it inappropriate to say merry Christmas?’ So clearly something has influenced quite a lot of people

I live in a pretty liberal area and I've met way more people triggered over "Happy Holidays than "Merry Christmas"

My guess is what influenced many people is the right wing droning on about a war on Christmas.

Liberals when told “Merry Christmas”: Merry Christmas to you too

(Some) Conservatives when told “Happy Holidays”: 🤬😤

My favorite is the post in the 4th picture, about americans and our "reading education". So many grammer errors in that post.
