[What if scenario] What if all commercial institutions suddenly decided they no longer intend to acknowledge religious events such as Christmas? - eviltoast

This means no sales, no themed merchandise, no decorations. December 25 and most other day are treated just like any other day for all stores malls, restaurants, ect.

You’d still get non religious holiday events like mothers days, or independence days.

What whould change?

    Thanksgiving is about the only holiday I give a rats ass about. Ignore the fucked up history, ignore the bullshit stories about the Pilgrims.

    I do two things on Thanksgiving. Find simple things to be thankful for in my life, and eat good food.

      Yeah, just ignore and forget the genocide that happened for you to ‘celebrate’ by indulging.

      Nothing more American than that.

        You’re right; we must spend all hours of all days contemplating historical injustice. No happiness allowed!
