By the way, if you go back 40 or 50 years, you find Christmas was mostly celebrated on Christmas day, and perhaps Christmas eve. Even then, cards often said happy holidays becasue of New Years and Hanukkah, and becasue the extended version was "the holidays." People would put up decorations in advance of Christmas, for parties and gatherings. But it's not like it was Christmas on Dec 20th.

Seems like nowadays Christmas starts about November 1st, at least that's what most businesses would lead me to believe- immediately after they tear down their Halloween decorations.
Christmas is such an overcooked, materialistic holiday, so much more than the 30+ years ago when I was a kid, it's just kind of a nauseatingly vile holiday now. It grosses me out. Sad!

I agree with it, but then it is even more idiotic and assholish to demand a non-Chrisitan Christmas and make things worse for everybody. Let people celebrate however the fuck they want, but the leftoids have long abandoned live and let live and become more than annoying to the regular people.

This is nonsensical (and dishonest) propaganda in my view. Can you give meaningful examples ?
"oh well, there was that one time, when that one guy argued against saying Merry Christmas."
BFD.

Seems to me that's what you are doing, to people that would prefer to keep religion out of it (not me by the way - I'm neutral on this - but I can see who the assholes are) . Who is the one that's not practicing live and let live ???
Actually you aren't even denying live and let live. You're just peddling anti-left propaganda.

Trump doesn't celebrate Kwanzaa. It's an American thing haters wont understand.
We need not kiss Liberal's ass over Christmas ever again.

If you want to make the Democratic Party great again, a good start would be to consider that most people like Christmas very much, and don't like being jumped on for expressing good wishes. Why let Trump take all the credit for being on the side of ordinary people? Start saying Merry Christmas, and if someone doesn't like it, wish them happiness anyways, because they are the one being unreasonably dour and judgmental, and could use a little cheering up.
