Wolfie RankinEvery year people get their knickers in a twist over whether we call this time of year Christmas, Xmas or just plain holidays.
Then rant about how it's a Christian country (It's not, check the last Census) and how there's a war on Christmas.
And it's often stirred up by tabloid news who like to frighten people about superficial nonsense such as whether the fish they sell these days is real or not, if foreigners are taking our jobs, if people who are down and out are getting too much welfare, or even wring their hands over whether people should have human rights, or not (often not).
We have real problems: War, Famine, Diseases, Climate Change (Which you'll note that these soft headed current affairs shows never touch).
No let's serve soft minded cretins what they can digest, a little slice of pointless fearmongering.
Christmas?
Who honestly gives a rat's anus what it's called.
Enjoy the time with family and friends if you're fortunate to have good ones.
And FFS watch and read something better.
