I used to think the war on Christmas was just a stupid thing conservatives babble about to fearmonger but nah my lil brother is dead about that life

me and him and my dad were going to this winter festival downtown. we find parking and start walking to it.

my dad is a very social guy thats always saying have a nice day and stuff to random people. we see 2 ladies standing by their car watching some mechanic fix their car or something. My dad says merry Christmas and they say merry Christmas back.

Then my brother literally says to my dad youre not supposed to say merry Christmas because its not inclusive to other religions. You have to say happy holidays. Or what if someone had something traumatic happen to them on Christmas so they dont celebrate? or some shit

then my dads like on Diwali I say happy Diwali and stuff, even though I dont celebrate it.

and I chimed in that hannakuh ended 11 days ago, eid is in June this year or some shit etc

you probably should avoid using it in a professional setting, but if you say "Merry Christmas!" to someone in public it's probably not a big deal

I personally say, "holiday," but I also describe people that I don't know as "them" instead of a gender. Like, "I just got my ass beat by an awesome Street Fighter player online. They were awesome." It's not a statement or anything, I've done it for 30 years. I never got the reasoning why people assumed genders of people they can't see.

But with that said, I think it's fucking idiotic to get mad or offended if they say Merry Christmas, like, it's just a friendly thing to say. But I also think it's idiotic to get mad when someone doesn't say Merry Christmas back and says, "happy holidays" or something like that because it's just as fucking friendly.

It's not just Christmas, is all sorts of things

I work at a public school, and we wouldn't put up Halloween decorations because they could offend someone. We couldn't put up stalkings for us workers to put small things in because it might offend someone.

What happened to turn him into such a killjoy? I hope there wasn't something bad that happened to him.
