Yeah, it's really terrifying that the left has been trying to get rid of "Merry Christmas" for years now. I'm a Jew, and I love saying & receiving "Merry Christmas". Dennis Prager even discusses it here — the concept of people being "offended" by "Merry Christmas", and what's really behind it:

The training on saying “happy holidays” began, to my recollection, around 20 years ago. At least among “progressive” employers. Orwell would have opposed all that the new left is trying to do, but they have taken their cue from 1984 in terms of the use of language to shape thought.
I love how “global warming” morphed into “climate change” when the warming didn’t occur.
I am old enough to remember when the left supported and celebrated Stalin and Mao.

I always say Merry Christmas. If someone thinks that’s white supremacy culture at work that’s their problem.
It’s a holiday of family, love, peace and giving....if you don’t like it, put it on ignore, and go on with your adopted North American life, as you have every right to do, ....which is why you ,and your family have moved here in the first place, unless your First Nations.
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
I don't even know where to start or how to comment or react to that sceenshot telling us that saying Merry Christmas is White Supremacy at work?
People like her are so sad and lost, it's pityful.
Next time one of my Black or Asian friends wish me merry Christamas I am going to tell them they can check their "White Privelege" at the door.

God forbid we try to be nice to people, and include people who aren't Christian. *shrug* it costs $0 to say Happy Holidays. I'm an atheist and I think saying "Christmas" is pretty stupid.
And when she is greeted by an unsuspecting pensioner who wishes her "Happy Easter" the shit will really hit the fan!!
you have to say HOPPY easter. if you're going to do it, do it right
I've been sober 2.5 years but I do enjoy the IPA from Partake brewing which is a craft NA beer with a high IBU. And who DOESN'T love bunnies?
I’m not white and not Christian, and I say Merry Christmas by default. Christmas has been widely commercialized all over the world. Many people just treat it as a holiday which friends and families get together. I have no problem saying Merry Christmas to people unless I know the person does not celebrate Christmas or the person greets me with Happy Holidays first.
Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays — whatever works for you.

All this politically correct shit.... I try my best, but sometimes some folks can be really difficult about a slip of the tongue, a laps in mem... Late 80s one day at work I got in the middle of a barrage of phone calls... I called up Vicky for help... "Vicky can you please come help me man the phones down here in the control room?" Silence for a moment.... " Only when you ask with a non sexist attitude.... " OK please come down and help ...person .... the phones..."
I love the irony of this post. Complaining about a what a christian holiday is called on an escort review board. That’s some goddamn funny stuff.
I’m like Melania in a way, who gives a fuck about xmas. I say happy holidays, it’s fun to fuck with the numbnuts’ when they reply back correcting me about it being merry xmas. We live in an inclusive society that asks we consider others and their celebrations.
I ask them how many times they go worship baby jebus in church per year, usually the answer is “well, I don’t go to church but...”
Or, “well, I don’t really practice christianity but it’s important to me to say merry xmas.” So I ask them why it’s so important if they don’t go to church or practice the faith?
HAPPY HOLIDAYS, what does your christ think about you seeing escorts?
Choke on your hypocrisy and self righteousness.

Visit any almost Asian country in December and see how much they have adopted Christmas.
It might not cost anything to say Happy Hplidays, but it also doesn't cost anything to gracefully accept Merry Christmas as an extension of well wishes, not a reason to get offended, or invent "white supremacy" as its dfining characteristic.
And why is it usually the "Woke" white people who always seem to be the ones offended on behalf of people who don't seem to really be offended?
I have non-white friends from China, Cambodia, Uganda and India who all regularly say, "Merry Christmas."
And why do you assume anyone is offended by wishing them Merry Cristmas?
I don't get offended if someone wishes me a Happy Diwali, a Happy Channukah or Merry Kwanza.

PS - one of the main tenets of Christianity is forgiveness, so I doubt Jesus very much cares if men see escorts, as long as they treat them with care and respect they deserve.
If you're so choked by men seeing escorts, why are you a member on this board, or are you one of those self-righteous hypocrites?
I'm an atheist and I say Merry Christmas to everyone. It's what the day is called*.
*At least since Christians co-opted the solstice festival from everyone else.
I don’t assume anything, if you read my post, I ask people why they get their panties in a bunch as a matter of conversation when it comes up, friends, family, perfect strangers etc. So there is no assumption anywhere. They get their back up, I reply.
Again the hypocrisy of christianity rears it’s ugly head, preaching about forgiveness and speaking about what some guy who may or may not have existed 2000 years ago would think. You a church going guy throppled? What’s your congregation and priest think about your hobby?
