Are Some people seriously against a Christmas Festival because it would "Offend some people?"

I'm all for a Christmas festival!

16646

I would prefer we had none (because I'd be offended)

347

I'd prefer we had none (because I think I'm standing up for would-be offended people)

516

[u][b]EDIT[/b]: Third option is "I'm against it because I think I'm defending would-be offended people"[/u] [b]EDIT2[/b]: 58 people are "offended" by it.[b] EDIT3[/b]: 125 now (67 person increase) 3538 people are for it. [b]EDIT3[/b]: 7098 now (3,560 person increase) [b]One thing we can all agree on is we need: THE TRI-ANNUAL DIABEETUS FESTIVAL WITH WILFORD BRIMLEY AS BEETUS CLAUS.[/b] Are Some people seriously against a Christmas Festival because it would "Offend some people?" I see some people arguing against a Christmas festival because it's "offensive" to some. Seriously? Have we gotten so sensitive that nobody is allowed to have any fun or do their own thing anymore without crying "but it offends [i]me[/i]" This mindset is toxic. You aren't allowed to do anything you like anymore without some random kid saying "You can't do that because I don't like it too." If [i]the whole world[/i] doesn't agree with you, we just can't do it. Forget that the [i]majority[/i] celebrates the holiday in some way.

    I think death cults are a load of horse shit and anyone in them is insane but I'd love a holiday little event thing near the end of the year. BRING OUT THE EGGNOG HELMET AND THE SANTA CLAUSE MASK!

    • If there's a Christmas type event then there should be a Hanukkah/Eid type event too. And that's just those three religions, theres many others too and I know it sucks, but it's unfair

    • If we can't get a Christmas Festival, hopefully we'll get a Holiday Festival instead. We can have things that represent Christmas, Kwanzaa, etc. just like this years Halloween Festival. I think that would be pretty cool.

    • Lot of people saying American company so do what we want. Personally I think it is more let the owners of the company or the employees do what they want. If they were all Jewish and wanted to make it Hanukkah instead of Christmas it really is no skin off my teeth. Christmas makes me a lot happier personally due to memories of good times but let people celebrate and propagate what they believe in without people getting mad about it.

      • Lots of different people play Destiny. I like the idea of a generic event, like what's going on at the moment.

      • It's because Christmas has religious aspects or something like that.

          You know how religious folk are. Although I'm not sure many people actually link religion and Christmas together. Well in my experience at least.

              Why not have different places in the Tower celebrate different holidays? Hangar and bar area get Kwanza, Hall of Guardians and where Shaxx is get Christmas, and East gets Hanukkah.

              • I'm all for it all! But especially the ones that "offend" people. (It's in quotes on purpose) offended people are like the whiny babies who get on these forums and complain about needing nerfs

                  • My thing is they've done winter holiday stuff for mmo's as long as I can remember; why is this any different? Throw up some pine trees, sprinkle some snow, and give everybody some stuff. That's not difficult at all; however, it's people's incessant need to be "correct" that causes an issue. Winter holiday encompasses all of them, but because we threw one too many candy canes on something someone's going to get their knickers in a twist. Can't we just have some fun and enjoy it all together, I mean, isn't that the point anyway?
