I legitimately talked to someone the other day who went on a mini rant about this. His gotcha point was basically well I guess since Veterans Day is also a holiday we shouldnt say happy veterans day to our vets then? Just say happy holidays right?..

All I could do was smile and nod.

The thing is,

it's not like liberal are forcing anyone to say happy holidays.

Saying happy holidays is just something that's pushed by businesses on their employees because they assume muslims will be offended and stop giving them their business

That's all it is - a business decision that is made by assuming muslims are ultra sensitive

I thought republicans were all for business decisions

Republicans aren't all for anything. They're only for things that suit them, like giving massive tax cuts to their donors.

It's not a business decision. It's white liberals saying we need to be "inclusive" to all types of people and therefore can't actually celebrate anything.

Old Navy made fun of it with their Chrismahannakwanzika commercials back in the day and then after that it just became generic holiday this, holiday that.

No, it's a business decision.

My friend works in a grocery and she said that the manager told everyone to make sure they never say "merry christmas" because it might offend customers.

It's 100% a business decision.

Businesses are so afraid of scaring away potential customers that they do stupid things like this.

No liberals actually think that. You can't believe everything Fox News tells you.

Me neither. Not once in my entire life.

I also havent seen anybody ask me if I just assumed their gender, or accuse me of racism by uttering the word black.

Turns out Republicans love making up boogeymen and yelling at them.

Stores having a preference for how their employees greet customers has zero impact on what individuals choose to celebrate

How else can I know theres an epidemic of something if the extent of my experience with it is others complaining about it with zero citations?

I would think that since other religions celebrate holidays during late November to early January, they would say happy holidays to cover them all.

CNN actively makes up and alters footage to push their agenda. Fox is biased but does not do anything like this.

It's classic whataboutism. They can't defend how garbage Fox news is so they attack another network even though no one else mentioned CNN at all.

The best part is most liberals on this site don't really like CNN themselves. Hence why so many give alternative sources too when they put CNN down.

The right is squarely up Fox's ass though. They swallow every word without even thinking about checking for a source. You can tell, because @r4X0r just called Fox News themselves a source and did so unironically.

Pretty laughable stuff here.

Also lol at anyone delusional enough to think this is anything but a business decision.

I don't know. I've been slightly offended on a few occasions, like when I'm trying to exit Walmart and they post some old troll at the entrance to check everybody's receipts when they're trying to leave the store. They always make it a point to politicize the holidays as thoroughly as possible. "Merry Christmas and God bless you. Jesus is lord!"

Right. I needed to hear that while walking out with a box of condoms, which I'm sure she was generally aware of since she checked my receipt.

It probably has more to do with Christmas not being the only holiday celebrated at the time and advertisers trying to be more inclusive and not alienate a potential market segment. Seeing as how Christmas is way more commercial than it is religious, the opinions of marketing execs carries more weight than anyone else.

How big is the market for Hanukkah and Kwanzaa anyway? You're not making a very compelling argument.
