The festive season and poverty

in #christmas7 years ago

The festive season is upon us people and with that in mind I'd like to remind you that there are parents who dread the coming of december.
There are parents who are just making ends meet and with the pressure of this "glorious" holiday we call christmas they feel the need to buy their kids things that they cant afford or need just so their kids dont feel "left out" and these things dont come cheap, fking game consoles, apple products, expensive toys or whatever.....
Now that poor parent who doesnt know where the next 5 quid is coming from has to stress months in advance just because its christmas and money has to be spent.....why? I ask...."beause you know, its christmas"....yep thats the answer you get if you talk to people about christmas....fking mind numbingly stupid.

First of all 99% of people have no idea what theyre celebrating christmas for...have absolutely no clue...
Lets forget the fact that it has nothing to do with jesus fkin christ.
But now we have this system (holiday) that has turned commercial just to get people to buy stuff, and thats how they get in debt and if you want to control someone you get them in debt....even more pressure if you have kids cause you know, you dont want your kids to be left out....left out of what exactly?

Last year in uk alone £77.5 billion was spent on christmas which I'm pretty sure is enough to feed the entire planet a few times over. And probably all or most of that money was spent on things people dont NEED at all.
You have to remember the pressure comes from the society...the same society that just follow each other down the cliff to their own death.

So instead of spending crap on christmas for things you dont need why dont you spend it to help homeless people, there is so many of them in the city....and believe me the money you spend on one dispensable gift on christmas is enough to feed a few people.
And if you have kids then educate them about christmas rather than blindly do the same your parents did for you.

Aaaaand also christmas is the worship of satan. So you know when you leave cookies for "santa" you're actually doing it for satan (I dont wanna go in details)...I bet they dont teach you that in school do they? so yeah way to go you satan worshipping bastards.
O and also there was no jesus. Thank you.
