No. Those who get crazy about it are the real crazies. People should be free to say what they want.

Yes. I hate the holidays and want everyone to feel miserable. That is why I'm stealing Christmas TC. I have informed CE of my plans. The giant anti air deer tower has been constructed. Those reindeer lasers are no match for science.

Couldn't imagine caring less if someone says happy holiday or Christmas.

Not offended by it, but I cringe any time a lefty says it when it's obvious they should've said Merry Christmas.
Interestingly, I cringe when people respond to Happy Holidays with Merry Christmas.

No. I started saying it 35 years ago because my best friends were Hindu and Jewish.

No.

Have people on the right always been offended by it? I feel like it just started in the last 5-10 years. But I hear that old Christmas song "Happy Holidays" all the damn time and no one seemed to bitch about it for the many decades it's been around.

The phrase has clearly been around for a long time, it only became a problem as the Right wing slipped into crazed hyperbolic identity politics. It's a product if Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh type culture warriors.

I don't care. I think you should just say whatever you celebrate.
Say merry Christmas. Say happy Hanukkah. Say happy Kwanzaa. Or if saying happy holidays makes you more comfortable, then say that.
I'm not gonna get offended cuz you celebrate something different than me or if you don't celebrate at all. It's all good to me

I can say Merry Christmas and you can say Happy Holidays or whatever you want.

It's fine.

No it's a very generic phrase that can apply to everyone said by people who don't care enough about you to try and figure out which winter holiday you celebrate. Really don't get why right-wingers are so triggered by it.

Because they're self-centered, don't know what sonder is, and think they're the protagonists of the universe, so this part of your post

people who don't care enough about you

Is the root of their problem with it.

Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, etc. I couldn't care less what you use, and there's so many holidays around this season happy holidays is just easier if you don't know who you're speaking to real well.
