Re: A merry Christmas, from ESOCommunity!
This Holiday is a menace to society. This Holiday is about exploiting people to BUY BUY BUY and to empower the corporations that always bring out the worst in people. This is a very depressing time of year where people die because of this holiday in the madness of the greediness. The Netherlands also has a racist tradition which I will not say what but it is very sad they still carry of that tradition.

Re: A merry Christmas, from ESOCommunity!
i am sorry you feel that way about Christmas, I can see your point about consumerism but not everyone feels that way. and saying people should not be wishing people a merry Christmas is trying to prevent people from freely expressing their religion which in America where I am from is a big deal. To a random person I would say Happy Holidays, but not in a post to someone wishing me a MerryChristmas, your prejudice is misguided in this case.
Enjoy the season!

I just feel that Christmas is a marketing tool that we've been bought into.

not much in this world hasn't escaped a way to be monetized and exploited by corporations. Just don't let that be your focus and you can make it whatever you want it to be.

Well, unless you're a Christian, Christmas isn't that significant. You can just stay out of it altogether if you aren't and if you are then center it on the birthday boy

Well I grew up as a Christian and I guess I still identity as one but damn do they piss me off. Christians really just preach and say whatever will get them to have money donated to them and exploit people for personal gain rather than do or say what Jesus said. Mainstream Christianity are a bunch of sexist bigots nowadays.

Christians don't whinge on forums tho. This isn't a debate thread.

Did you just stereotype and generalize billions of people. I'm pretty sure only a very small percentage of Christians actually act that way (and I think it's safe to say those people are only Christian in word, but not in action).
Anyways, I would like to wish a merry Christmas or happy holidays to all of ESOC (whichever, you prefer, because honestly they aren't worth fighting over). It's been a great year for the community and I can't wait to see what next year has in store!

Re: A merry Christmas, from ESOCommunity!
How the fuck saying Merry Christmas is ofencive for some people? I think you people concern too much with words. "Oh god, he said the f word, what a sin"
Have a nice end of a year in the gregorian calendar you all.

I was simply pointing out where christians struggle at and where they can improve. Christians don't even tolerate other people for crying out loud and that's how Trump got elected.

so what did we learn from this? interjection is the father of wicked, bram is een vuile hond and that japan is the best civ because they don't need to scavenge the wilds for food (or in the case you're playing a pleb euro civ, mills OP)
