It’s Japan’s war on christmas
Never change, Japan.
I believe US doesn’t understand christmas, what’s with the bastardized SAiNT(a) niCoLAUS, dressed in Coca Cola costume, instead of the baby jesus celebration. Eh, anyway, as a frugal agnostic, I don’t care either way.
I mean, it’s all based on he said she said nonsense the further back you dig anyways. The only difference today is that corporations hijacked the public consciousness to perpetuate consumerism, instead of it being cave dwelling Jews or delusional Roman oracles with an affinity for pharmacological ‘substances’.
Jesus wasn’t even born in December lol. Early Christians stole the winter solstice festivities from Pagans, because that’s how cults work - they leach off of other cultures, then either twist or outright re-write those traditions, allegorical stories, and legends to benefit their narratives.
meh. Christianity hijacked Pagan Winter Solstice traditions and some historians even think Jesus was actually born around September. The bible flat out forbids Christmas trees(Jeremiah 10:1-4).
No. They understand it just fine. Better than western Christians at least.
Kurisumasu = buy shit. And eat KFC. Okay, that second part is solely their own.
meh, close enough.
They absolutely do not. The only reason it’s celebrated over there is because “It’s an American thing, don’t you wanna do the trendy American thing?”
No joke, they eat KFC for Christmas because KFC was doing poorly in Japan, but they realized it was considered “trendy” and “cool” to do “The American Thing”, so they just gaslight everyone into thinking KFC is a Christmas Tradition in America, and somehow they still believe that.
Yeah. It should really be monopoly man ass raping saint Nicholas in a red and white gimp suit.
The story behind the image is actually quite funny:
