I had to take the bait when I saw the text-link in the article above...

Using Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays is no longer about putting a stranger at ease
The primary function of both greetings now is to characterize the speaker, serving as a badge of group identification.

If you aren't going to say Merry Christmas or Happy Hanukkah then just say “Good day!”.

Telling me “holiday” without saying WHAT holiday is just rude. Your delivery is artificial, not genuine.

To: a fool in paradise

I’m going with “when they wish you Merry Christmas” it’s codespeak for “FU!”. In that spirit I wish every libtard a Very Sincere Merry Christmas.
