Annual War on Christmas Begins
It’s past Halloween; time for the progressive War on Christmas to resume. Ever-P.C. Starbucks starts us off with this:
Most years, Starbucks unveils their festive Christmas-themed cups during the holiday season. This year, however, the chain is refusing to use any cups with any reference to Christmas.
Instead of using festive cups, they will use plain red cups with no reference to the holiday whatsoever.
Starbucks said in a statement, “Starbucks has become a place of sanctuary during the holidays. We’re embracing the simplicity and the quietness of it. It’s [a] more open way to usher in the holiday.”
A place of sanctuary. From the Christofascist oppression of Christmas.
It isn’t just Starbucks:
A Long Island mall swapped Santa’s sleigh for something resembling a spaceship and nixed the Christmas tree because it didn’t want to “offend” anyone, irate shoppers told The Post.
The Roosevelt Field Mall ditched its traditional holiday village and put Ol’ Saint Nick inside a winter-themed “glacier” instead.
Obviously normal people who are offended by the anti-Christmas ratchet tightening each year don’t count. In a country run by cultural Marxists, normal people never count.
That they have been systematically eradicating Christmas tells you all you need to know about progressives.
Something is conspicuously missing.
