    Mom: I’m sorry kids but amerikkka didn’t extract enough imperial super profits from the global south this year. There will be no Christmas.

    Claighton (age 12): Fuck the global south.

    OTOH, this holiday is increasingly becoming one of the only times all of my family can get together. My family is aging out, and again, this is really the only time I can see my loved o ea. This holiday is also one of the only sanctioned holiday days off work I get during a year and is the ONLY day I am guaranteed not to get called in for emergency stuff. I put in thirteen hours Thanksgiving this year.

    So, celebrate it. Or fucking don’t. But telling others how they should spend their holidays is trashy no matter what your politics are.
