The Rules
Posts must be:

- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

You missed Hamas
As did Isreal!
(edit)
Jokes aside, it also took me forever, and I went through the exact same list of who might be offended. Who reads "Ham-mas" on a christmas bag and even when saying it out loud associates it with Hamas? I mean it's not like anybody still associates Christmas with Christ, so who cares what the first part is. Give me Crisp-mas with lots of crackers!
It's actually the Jews who asked to pull it out because it sounds like Hamas
They call Hamas “Ham” to save time.
And because they all secretly love pork even though it's haram.
I mean who doesn't like pork? If I had to pick one type of meat and that's all I'm allowed to eat for the rest of my life I'd choose pork
Unpopular opinion: Pork over beef. Anyday.
