Some of you, yes.

I know valuing tradition is a very important part of being a conservative but so is valuing personal freedom, correct?

Its a fooking Christmas tree!  Thats it.  End of story.  A damn tree decorated to celebrate Christmas is a Christmas tree. If it was simply an evergreen tree, as you call it, Id call it an evergreen. But its not.  Its specifically been decorated to celebrate Christmas. Why the fook must we call things that theyre not to pacify people?  Case in point...chicks with dicks are fuking men.  JFC whats wrong with people?

I do. For the same reasons I care that all the different pronouns are pushed on us.

Maybe because the main reason people left England to settle in this country was to get away from a Govt/King that was also the head of the  church...seemed pretty important to the Founding Fathers too since it's a part of the First Amendment to the Constitution

That's a load of crap.  The founders were religious.  The whole separation of church and state thing isn't intended to EXCLUDE any particular religion, just to ensure that all religions are allowed and respected in this country.  The state has a had an official Christmas tree for a long time.  It's a Christmas tree.  If they want to have a Hanukah Menora as well I'm fine with that but the established tradition is to have a Christmas tree.  If we're going to have it, call it what it is.

We’re free to call a tree whatever the fock we want to call it as well.  I call it a Christmas tree and if anyone else wants to call it something different then go right ahead.

We all know that they'll win.  In time if it hasn't started already Menards and Home Depot etc will be advertising sales on their pre-lit holiday trees.

The government should call it what the people want them to.  I don't care what the governor calls his tree at home.  I do care, although not that much, what he calls his constituent's tree.  Do you not see the difference?  You can't be this dense.

This reminds me of how blacks take offense when non black ethnicities are called “people of color” like they are the only ones who should be called PoC. Asians and Indians surely take offense to their taking offense.

Yet we can't call them colored people.  WTF?  Make up your mind.

Liberals want to weaponize christmas and use it in their arsenal to make people feel guilty because inclusion and diversity.  if every republican accepted the new term of holiday tree, then liberals would just say holiday tree isnt inclusive enough and use a new term because its about making republicans feel guilty to win elections, not because they want positive change.

I don't think Honcho knows what "snowflake" actually means.  The "snowflakes" are the ones that want to change it in the first place.  :doh:

is it @Mookz that gets excited about a neatly trimmed chanukah bush?

I think we all do, but heck yeah.  :banana:
In fact, my cute supervisor is of hebreic ancestries, and apparently I knew it before she did.  She found out from 23andMe.  When she told the story, I was like "A-HA!!" (to myself).  Unfortunately I don't think I'll be trimming her Hanukkah Bush anytime soon.  :(

It's always been a Christmas tree. Who's looking to change it ? Seems they are the snowflakes.  

From a logical perspective anyways.

We should probably take the tree's feelings into consideration. What if it doesn't identify as a holiday tree?

What if it "feels" like it is actually a broadleaf tree, and by forcing it into a trope traditionally filled by needle trees we are irreparably harming it? :huh:

While we're at it, what should we refer to female genital mutilation as now? That description sounds very harsh and is disrespectful.

It's not hurting me any. I will continue to call a Christmas tree a Christmas tree just as I will continue to call a spade a spade.

And I don't think any mooslim would object to me calling a burka a public executioner's costume. "Oh that's a scary outfit little girl, but today's not Halloween (aka scary festival day). But here's an old jolly rancher anyway. Next year maybe go with the sexy ktty outfit. On second thought, don't."
