The article they share in the issue to explain why Christmas is so offensive is absolutely wild. To quote:

Imagine that between 1933-45, the Nazi regime celebrated Adolf Hitler’s birthday – April 20 – as a holiday. Imagine that they named the day, “Hitlerday,” and observed the day with feasting, drunkenness, gift-giving, and various pagan practices.

Meanwhile my bosses are all Jewish and the paid Jewish holidays are nice but nobody who goes to a church on Sundays can get overtime because that's on Sunday instead of Saturday. Pushing religion? That shit only matters if you're specifically one religion who doesn't like the other. For me who doesn't give half a shit, it's just a nice spread out holiday schedule!

Fortunately I work first shift which is kind of at an advantage this way.

From my perspective, Wicca is the best of the crazy people because their holidays are much more consistently placed!
