Hey DU! We need to start planning the 🎄 War on Christmas 🎄

[underpants]

I know, last year we were all taking a breather after the election but damn it we need to get going on this. It was either Sun Tzu or Patton who said, “Those who fail to prepare before Walgreens gets their Christmas stuff up is preparing for failure”.

Okay so much of their troops have been redirected to fighting Critical Race Theory dissertations in elementary schools which is either some brilliant work by G2 on our part or just dumb luck. This may help isolate them if we have effective single envelope maneuver.

Now this whole Just In Time inventory collapse is like a weather anomaly but we’ll take. Boy gotta love that capitalism devouring its own commercialization of a holiday. Thank you God!

Anyway, I do think we need to get going on this.

[Shell_Seas]

1. Start? We've never stopped.

[underpants]

74. That's the spirit

I really need to start going to meetings again.

[lagomorph777]

2. Way ahead of you. I've already jammed up all the major ports.

Also, I've taken out half of the department-store Santas by gathering them for a big COVID event in Sturgis.

[FSogol]

4. DUzy!

[underpants]

8. 😆😆😆

[demmiblue]

17. !

[mountain grammy]

18. hahaha

[Rhiannon12866]

23. They're ready and waiting!

[niyad]

3. I agree, although, in some cases we may already be too late. Dollar Tree has had

christmas merchandise for a month now. Both it and safeway have started their toy drives, which is a sad commentary on how bad things are.

But, ready whenever the orders come down.

I forgot to mention, I'll be using my usual "season's greetings", "happy holidays", etc. Really passes them off.

[Captain Stern]

5. Damn...seems to me like the War On Christmas starts earlier every year.

Would it be too much to ask to do the Wars on Halloween and Thanksgiving first?

[PatSeg]

15. I know, it is so frustrating!

Every damn year!!! Sometimes it feels like we just ended last year's war on Christmas and then it is time to do it again!!!

[Captain Stern]

48. Exactly. It just kind of ruins the whole War.

The War on Christmas used to be really fun, but now it's just far too commercialized.

Takes the fun right out of it for me.

[PatSeg]

60. I'm thinking that we should just

have the war every other year. It would give us more time to prepare and it would be far more satisfying. Maybe we could have a war on Christmas one year and then a war on Easter the next. It sure feels like I just packed all my war stuff away and now it is time to take it out again!

Sadly, it just isn't as special as it used to be.

[Ilsa]

36. Halloween is the Devil's holiday! It's Harvest-Fest now! nt

[DemocraticPatriot]

80. There is no war on Halloween amongst us devil worshippers.

It's more like our birthday party!

[mahatmakanejeeves]

6. It's already under way. Jolliness is no laughing matter.

This Grinch can move right along, the Boebert household is celebrating Christmas no matter what he says.

And someone should let him know that tyrants only get coal in their stocking.

12. Once more unto the breech Dr. Fauci!!!

Take no prisoners! ⚔️

[underpants]

62. Wow she's a rebel huh?

[Scrivener7]

7. I'm printing up my "Keep Yule in Yuletide" bumper stickers right now!

[Hekate]

66. Axial Tilt is the Reason for the Season!

[Scrivener7]

70. LOL! That might be better!

[SCantiGOP]

67. Keep the X in Xmas

might get you run off the road even quicker

[Chipper Chat]

9. And if Biden bans Chtistmas presents

I'm still going to give each of my Young Republican kids new Cadillacs.

[DFW]

10. I like the old sixties slogan

"What if they had a war and nobody came?"

Republicans have been showing up every fall, armed to the teeth, looking to fight a war that never existed, was never fought, and was only declared in their imaginations.

And still they show up, thinking that THIS year, they'll see Godot.

[Moostache]

46. Reminded me instantly of one of my all-time favorite songs...

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us, only sky

Imagine all the people
Livin' for today
Ah

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too

Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace

You
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

[Jerry2144]

11. Sun Tzu said that?

I thought it was my Shih Tzu who said that

[Laurelin]

13. I'm in!

I hereby vow that I will NOT say Merry Christmas to ANY of my Jewish or Wiccan friends. Is it still ok to give them chocolate letters for Sinterklaas, though?

[underpants]

73. Yes I think it's okay

[hibbing]

14. Well, President Biden has already outlawed candy canes n/t

[Hotler]

16. Lowes has their Christmas shit upo already. I might as well put out my

Season's Greetings yard sign early also.

[lambchopp59]

19. RWNJ's used to correct us saying "Happy Holidays""

Until one of the prominent preeeeechers pointed out to them it means "Happy Holy Days". Wasn't so sacrilegious after all.

[SergeStorms]

43. Love that pic!

With the FSM prominently displayed, but shouldn't he be portrayed in a colander instead of a manger?

The Pirates ☠ of the Caribbean are a nice touch as well. Perhaps a GI Joe with the Kung-fu grip in addition?

All in all, a smashing crèche display, but may I suggest Kangaroos, Komodo Dragons and perhaps a Tyrannosaurus Rex instead of the usual sheep, rams and donkeys? They were all on the Ark too, don't forget.

[Pinback]

53. And the traditional gold, frankincense, myrrh, and bay leaves. (nt)

[Farmer-Rick]

20. You mean the war on X-mas

First shot fired.

[SergeStorms]

44. Kill shot.

Nice opening shot.

[sarge43]

21. As we may be wearing masks into December,

how about masks with "Happy" pagan December holidays messages

Saturnalia
Heliogenna (the Greek Titan Helios)
Winter Solstice Yule
Hogmanay ancient Scottish New Year celebration

[marble falls]

24. Io Saturnalia, ciudadano Romano!! ...

Semper ubi sub ubi!

[sarge43]

26. Is that Latin for "party hardy, player"? n/t

[marble falls]

28. Close enough! (nothing naughty or insulting was used in that post!) Just some "lazy" Latin.

[marble falls]

22. Make it Oct 2, then we'll have an extra year to overspend!!

[rickford66]

25. Happy Holidays

[SidDithers]

27. I've got my recruiting posters ready...

Sid

[marble falls]

29. Nice illustrations, Sid! I'd frame them and hang them in the room my in-laws use when they visit.

[SidDithers]

30. I did these in 2009 to post on DU...

Man, time flies

Sid

[marble falls]

32. So it does. It doesn't bother me because there is no doubt: my mind has flown off with the times! ..

I'm not even aware of what I am not aware of, if you can get my drift.

[Ilsa]

38. Well, we had that heathen muslim in the WH then,

with his wife who dared to select beautiful decorations. Somebody had to protest!

[IronLionZion]

31. Starbucks has slit the throats of these polar bears

It's a bloody message warning us all that liberals don't want unvaccinated patriots to enjoy Christmas

[Ilsa]

40. OMG!!! Report them to the World Wildlife Federation!

That is bloody hysterical!

[Irish_Dem]

76. That's brutal.

They even look dead.

[IronLionZion]

78. The war on Christmas has many casualties

[Irish_Dem]

81. Yep. Even the Christmas bears have to go.

[Duncanpup]

33. We're with you

I just saw your post I posted something similar at 9:16 I deleted it not knowing you put up something earlier, Yet I’m ready for the war on Christmas under pants let’s ride.

[swimboy]

34. How did I know this was you?

[Wicked Blue]

35. Preparing the cannons to fire containers of Happy Holidays masks

at crowds of anti-vaxxers.

[SCantiGOP]

37. First, we need the War on Columbus Day

The patriots who insist on celebrating this day like to get lost on the way to the grocery store to buy spices, and then infect the staff at the wrong store where they end up.

[Ilsa]

41. And don't forget the war on Veterans Day. nt

[jmowreader]

42. Veterans know all about war. It doesn't bother us.

[underpants]

63. Oh we won that one.

[Midnight Writer]

39. I'm gonna use the same technique we used on the vaccinations.

I'm going to encourage folks to say Merry Christmas. I'm going to put lights up around my house, I'll get a Christmas tree, I'll play Christmas music, I'll buy gaily wrapped gifts.

When they see I encourage Christmas, they'll react the same way they did when I encouraged vaccines.

They will refuse to participate because nobody tells them what to do, and they will want to own the lib.

Christmas is doomed!

[yonder]

52. Nice PsyOps you got there.

I say we make you the head brother/sister-whats-in-charge of it.

[Midnight Writer]

55. I'd be happy to serve. And you can be my chief fundraiser! (I prefer untraceable cash)

[SCantiGOP]

61. Don't forget to tell them

That George Soros and the Chinese Communist Party has ordered you to vote straight Republican next year.

[Initech]

45. Happy holidays!

[bluewater]

54. OMG you just went Nuclear!

[Initech]

57. It's funny how they call us "triggered snowflakes"...

Yet they go absolutely insane when they walk into Wal-Mart or Bed Bath & Beyond and they don't greet you with "Merry Christmas'. Like really who gives a fuck?

[bluewater]

58. +1000

[Sneederbunk]

47. More tanks and heavy artillery.

[jmowreader]

51. Heavy artillery plays a central role in my famous Christmas poem...

“Why the Grinch Stole Christmas.” In it, the Grinch was so pissed off by the Karenness of the Whos that he broke into their houses, stole their stuff and had his Russian cousin blow it up with his 2S5 152mm self-propelled gun. Unfortunately it didn’t work because the Whos just bought new stuff.

[jmowreader]

49. I'm planning my War on Christmas decorations now

For some reason they don’t sell inflatable Elmer Fudd figurines. What I shall do is buy an inflatable Santa and reindeer set, put the sleigh in my shrubs nose-first, and throw the reindeer all over the yard in a random fashion - the Fudd statue would, of course, imply he shot Santa down. I’d really like to have a door wreath that says Bah Humbug on it, but I fear I’m going to have to make it. I should also get a couple pieces of scrap coroplast at work, print “Why the Grinch Stole Christmas” on them (hint: he was working retail) and put them up for all to read. After all, it’s not Christmas without reading the stirring lines “They pulled the Grinch out of his nice Whoville store / and sent him to one in Ulan-Baator.”

[Hotler]

79. Campaign signs are going up for city council elections, I'm putting up

Season Greetings.

[AZLD4Candidate]

50. I was born Jewish. I guess that makes me a general in the War on Christmas.

[Bettie]

56. I gotta admit

I've been phoning it in for the last few years, so I'm ready for tips to do better this year!

[lindysalsagal]

59. D'ya think my neighborhood association will go for this?

?resize=1200%2C675

[underpants]

65. Hahaha

[Champp]

64. We Champps are going to keep our pumpkins going from now to New Years

That'll make people think.

[ThoughtCriminal]

68. Agent De Joy is doing his part!

At the USPS. What about you!?

[Mr.Bill]

69. Well, we have seen to it

that all Christmas gifts that come from China are held up on container ships offshore of our ports.

[Brother Mythos]

71. My Antifa cell has been on it since the day after last Christmas.

[underpants]

72. Yes!

[Irish_Dem]

77. I can go knock over a Christmas elf in the Kroger's holiday aisle.

[underpants]

83. Please please no destruction

as long as no one sees you.

[Irish_Dem]

84. I'll try to contain myself.

[nolabear]

82. Can I have the Black/Latinx Santa section?

My grandsons are biracial, one with a Mexican birth mother and one with an Afro-Cuban birth father. We’re stocking up on Santas and angels and elves and other Christmas characters of all ethnicities.
