Reply to comment by Bascna in Happy Holidays r/Space by rtphokie

ive honestly been unable to tell if the people who think there is a war on christmas are ironic, happy holidays is an incredibly old saying from around the 1900’s

Some people clearly know it's ridiculous, but push it for political and financial purposes. Most of the rest seem to really believe it.

Before I added the emoji, I think I was getting downvoted because people thought I was seriously complaining about the 'war on Christmas.' It's really sad that we've gotten to the point that we can't assume such statements are sarcastic.
