Religion doesn’t count. We’re on Lemmy, so neither does communism.

I love Christmas time and Christmas movies. I'm an atheist, but since we don't celebrate saturnalia this is the closest I'll ever get. I like giving people gifts and when someone gets me something thoughtful it makes me feel special.

Also, I enjoy that the ostensibly religious holiday has been eaten by capitalism. Because when someone complains you can just go "tsk, yeah, capitalism man." And even the hardcore hogs are forced to agree.

Christmas is winning the War on Christmas, but at what cost?!
