This usually gets downvoted but I love it when people remind Christians that all of their holidays are bastardized versions of other cultures holidays.
Yule, Ostara (easter), Samhain (All Hallow’s Eve / Halloween)… It was the forced removal and conversion of entire cultures and ethnic lifestyles, often with the threat of death for those who don’t re-identify themselves. If only there was a word for the killing of entire ethnocultural groups…
Which is why I wish them a Merry Yule and the All Father’s blessing, and watch them act like they’re gonna die of contact with an unclean heathen…
