It's not bullshit. It's what everyone started doing, and a lot still do but as I said, I'm seeing a big swing towards Christmas.
Just out of curiosity, I did a quick amazon search for "holiday tree."

Most of the listings say "Christmas tree", most of the rest just say "tree", and one or two say "Christmas holiday tree" which kinda cracks me up lol.

its 100% truth. no one cares when you say Merry Christmas. The only people making this a thing are the ones who cry when someone says "Happy Holidays".
The only people making this a thing with either Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays are the ones who cry when someone says the one they don't prefer.

Holiday Tree is a real thing, I've heard it before and found this

https://www.ocregister.com/2019/12/12/santa-lights-la-palmas-annual-holiday-tree/

That is not being sensitive to anyone besides maybe pagans who still celebrate Saturnalia.

You clearly care that people are saying Happy Holidays if you are complaining that there's some movement to replacement christmas with holiday.

This.

You can imply that you are celebrating Christmas and nobody really give a damn if you mean it within the umbrella of holidays or not


It's not wrong of people to get annoyed by the euphemism. There obviously isn't a War on Christmas, but there are euphemisms. And euphemisms are dishonest. TBH say Merry Christmas if you are talking to people who celebrate Christmas, Happy Hanukkah if you are talking to people who celebrate Hanukkah, etc. IMO there is nothing wrong with Happy Holidays on its own because it's a catch-all and it makes sense to say that in a speech or advertisement that speaks to a large group of people. But something like Holiday Tree is a joke.

I was the one who made the thread about how trump's tweet when that witness was on the stand was intimidating the witness and could lead to an article of impeachment on its own. You didnt mind me back then.

There are still a few generic "holiday" holdouts, but it seems to be that Christmas is back to being the majority of what I'm hearing now. Feels good, man.

Agreed

Guys, the "Happy Holiday" song came out in 1942. 1942! It literally says "Happy Holidays To You" during it.

Celebrating a president's achievements is not "sucking him off." I'm sorry I don't live in a brainwashed world where I have to act like every move he makes is the end of society. We don't need to exist at two polar opposites. I tend to sit in the middle and think for myself like a decent person.

Merry Christmas is easier to say besides it's a capitalist holiday in 2019 not so much religious anymore. Merry Christmas is an essential greeting in the language of business.

The only time it bugs me is when places have Santa Claus saying Happy Holidays.

Like, he's literally Father Christmas lol.

Otherwise, I don't have a problem with people wishing one another happy holidays.
