I absolutely agree with you in principle. BUT, it is the left that has politicized absolutely EVERYTHING in life. There isn't a corner anywhere in the USA where you can retreat to and not be cudgelled with mean, ugly politics. It is one of the saddest states of affairs in civic life these past two decades. The extreme left did this and it shouldn't surprise us that the right has taken up the same methods after a long delay to respond.
Just turning Alinsky tactics back on them and they can’t handle it
Which means it works
You’re right. That’s why it’s up to us (imho), for 24 hours, to exercise self control and remember what this season is about and try to make it a wonderful experience for the kids in spite of vileness of the left. After Christmas, all bets are off.
