A reactionary, capitalist, consumerist nightmare of a holiday for treat chasing kkkrackkers!
Under Communism we will re-edit “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” to end with the Grinch shoving that sled over the cliff before a crowd of crying Whos, and the Grinch will be declared a Hero of the People’s Republic!
We will replace Christmas with Halloween 2, the superior proletariat Holiday to the decadent bourgeois Christmas!
…sorry I work retail and this week has been utter hell. Fuck Christmas!
No.
We must Retvrn to Tradition. We do not erase Christmas, we make it the “excuse to break into rich people’s houses, fuck the place up, to get irresponsibility drunk on Eggnog, sing annoying songs, and dress like an ass for the last two weeks of December” Kind of holiday That pissed off the Puritans. We gotta get WEIRD with it.
Alternative proposal: you cannot buy your Christmas gifts. Everything must be hand made. The state gives everyone a day off and organises craft events.
Seriously tho. Retail fucking sucks. You must HATE the treat brained.
I already do this. Everyone in my family gets the same thing. Some years it sucks but I don’t care. Everyone I give presents to are adults. I don’t want more shit in my house, just make me something cool or that I can eat.
I already do this
Pretty rad, honestly
Once that happens, yeah fuck it, down with mandatory cheerfulness and timed generosity. Ive been trying to get people to stop give me gifts since i was like 13, I wish you could opt out of this shit. Anything I need or want is either too expensive or not the kind of thing you can ask for as a gift, and anything I end up getting is shit I dont need or want. I try to only get people books or tickets to something these days. Nothing physical or materialistic unless i think it will genuinely improve their life in some way.
Under communism there will be many more new occasions to celebrate and we will distribute them more evenly around the year too.
You will be required to go to eat a succulent Chinese meal at a lunch buffet and then go watch a movie. Carryout/Delivery & a movie at home is also acceptable
Can we add in some multi-day holidays/festivals? I feel like we’re missing the spirit of true bacchanalia by needing to be back to work the next day. Our ancestors would want us to have tomorrow off too
This is the answer.
We need more holidays. If Feudal serfs could get wasted for 3 days at the Feast of Saint Somethingorother, every few weeks, then I deserve to daydrink every now and then.
We don’t need to abolish Christmas, we need to retvrn to Christmas tradition by taking the last two weeks of December to drink and harass rich people.
I genuinely enjoy the atmosphere and all the cultural lore surrounding Christmas, the music, the terminology, the decorations, the snow, the cold, the gatherings, the feasting, the mythology.
I could do away with the worthless consumerist gift giving, but can we keep all the other stuff pretty please?
“Add BigLenin to the Naughty List”
This is the ultimate sign that China is revisionist
I’m doing my part
Anti treat action
How about we just ban black friday and create a better non racist replacement for thanksgiving with better food to act as a barricade between Christmas and Halloween?
In fact this new holiday could even be about the conflict between Halloween and Christmas and the dark time of capitalism when black friday ruined the whole holiday season
could also just have 2 harvest festivals and wokemas
Critical support to comrade Oliver Cromwell for banning Christmas and the monarchy
(I cringed even ironically typing this)
We will replace Christmas with Halloween 2
Nordic model is so back
