The idea of twinkling, colorful lights are a reminder of divisions that continue to run through our society, a reminder of systemic biases against our neighbors who don't celebrate Christmas or who can't afford to put up lights of their own.'

What a hypocrite that is probably blind to their hypocrisy.

This person speaks of divisions in society while fanning the flames of those divisions.

This person wishes to force conformity on all people while defending diversity.

Why should it bother anyone which holidays another chooses to celebrate?

If one person decides to celebrate Chanukah while I celebrate Christmas, I don’t bemoan their celebration because it has no effect on my celebration.

Unless he is having a extremely loud rager I will be fine. If he does make a nuisance of himself, I will politely ask him to tone it down. If that doesn’t work, then I get the authorities involved.

But that is not an effect caused by the holiday that is a personal issue.
