All this bullshit about political correctness at Christmas
time. It’s Christmas, for God’s sake,
not fucking ‘holidays’.
This country is based on Christianity (whether you follow
it or not), and the majority should not be made to cater to the extreme
minority that do not celebrate this religious event.
I banged on in a previous blog about the behaviour of the
minority punishing the majority, and this is another perfect example.
We are also not AMERICA
Our children are raised to believe in Santa Clause, sing
Christmas carols, give Christmas presents and cards, go to Christmas dinner and
attend Christmas mass (if that rocks your boat).
It is not swept under the rug like a dirty secret that
we’re ashamed of. It should not be
modified to cater to the inconsiderate feelings of a few.
Even the most scroogy people out there, that really hate
Christmas and the bastardising commercialism of it, would agree that it shouldn’t
be ‘edited’ in the name of political and religious correctness.
If you don’t like Christmas, if you don’t believe it in,
then too bad! We celebrate Christmas in
this country! It’s a part of who we are!
Getting up at the crack of dawn to open presents; sharing
ham, turkey and all the trimmings at lunch time; devouring plum pudding and
custard; playing back yard cricket; having a bbq at the beach; sharing the odd
frothy, and watching the Chanel 9 Carols by Candlelight on Christmas Eve, then
again whilst we’re having lunch on Christmas Day; it’s a part of Australian
life, and shouldn’t be changed.
Going to the kids end of year Christmas concert, and
watching them make an absolutely monstrous hash of traditional carols, is the
best part of the festive season. Not this
modified, muted politically correct, non-offensive crap that they’re made do in
some schools today.
I WANT TO HEAR CHILDREN SINGING ‘WE WISH YOU A MERRY
CHRISTMAS!’ NOT ‘WE WISH YOU HAPPY FUCKEN HOLIDAYS!’ What the hell is that? That’s not Christmas: that’s insane!
It’s wrong!
You see, there are two issues at play here. The first one, are the ‘well intended’. The ones that decide, without complain or
instigation from anyone other than themselves, to change things to accommodate
everyone. ‘We must try to please
everybody.’
For example, the Montessori school that decided not to
celebrate Christmas, for fear of offending the wide diversion of religious
faiths they had attending the school.
Here’s a news flash for you: if people are considering
your school as a place to send their children, and your Christmas celebrations
are of concern to them, they have a choice.
They don’t have to send their children to your school. If they do, then they endure the Christmas
shebang without complaint.
Don’t make assumptions and changes on what you fear,
because yet again, the majority of innocent people suffer because of it. It’s not fair to make the kidlets miss out on
Christmas at school because of something that they simply don’t understand.
The second one, is the cultural minorities that come to
this country, settle into our communities, and decide that they’re not happy
with the way life rolls over here. They
don’t like Christmas, because it clashes with their own beliefs, so they
complain to whoever will listen about it.
As such, we have people stumbling around trying to accommodate them,
instead of saying ‘have a mug of concrete, and deal with it.’
I’m over this political correctness bullshit! Leave Christmas alone, I say to you! Stop making the kids miss out because of
things you fear! Stop making everyone else miss out!
Good times with your family and friends.
If you don’t like it; deal. It’s part of who we Aussies are, and we’re
not going to change it.
That is all.
Peace out.
