    Christmas is canceled in Bethlehem because of the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

    Y’know, for the sake of comparison.

      Look, I’m personally pro-Palestine but don’t you think this is a bit much, dropping into a completely off topic conversation to bring it up?

        Whatever. The phrase “Christmas is cancelled” forced me to remember the fact that Christmas is literally cancelled in Bethlehem, with the articles about it often directly saying the phrase “Christmas is cancelled”

        I was struck by how petty and small this whiney video is when compared to places where Christmas is literally cancelled.
