I've never heard a single person complain about this or anything like this. The only time I've ever heard of it being "a thing" is when I used to watch the news. Once I stopped, I never heard it and realized that literally nobody irl complains about this kind of stuff.

It doesnt though. It literally shows liberals are offended enough by merry christmas that they will fire someone for it. But lets not pretend that this topic isnt just anything but a complaining about a small subset of wack jobs that argue about this on both sides every year

This.

It's more useless political correctness. Everyone knows it's Christmas. Even non religious people celebrate Christmas. That's the time of year it is.

It's silly for our society to walk around saying "have a good holiday" when everyone knows you mean Christmas.

Well, for starters, the company denies this is what even happened.

Secondly, even if her account WAS accurate, she was fired for refusing to say Happy Holidays, which was corporate policy, not because she said Merry Christmas, which, even if its petty, is insubordination.

So...

I hear you. But me, personally, I know a LOT of conservatives (more than liberals, actually) and MOST of them get their nuts twisted when they hear "Happy Holidays." It's so fucking silly, but they can't help themselves. They go on tangents about political correctness and everything. I just don't get it.

And if a company asked me to say happy holidays, I'd shrug and say happy holidays. Because it literally is not a big deal.

In America most atheists still celebrate Christmas, yes, but Jewish people, Muslims, and every other religion does not.


Less than 5% of the U.S. population make up both of those groups combined.

It's a bit ridiculous to have the whole country going around saying "have a good holiday" for less than 5% or less of the population, particularly in parts of the country where those two groups are less prevalent.

It would be acceptable to say an inclusive phrase if you knew they didn't celebrate Christmas. No need to tell people Merry Christmas you know don't celebrate it.

I don't know why people are pretending like the scenario in the OP doesn't happen. If you've ever worked retail during the holidays and were forced to say "Happy Holidays", you probably had dozens of people aggressively reply "Merry Xmas" back at you as if you said something disrespectful about their mother. I've even had people try to debate me about it before.
