The inherent fucking racism/xenophobia in the āSave Christmasā rhetoric????? They imposed lockdowns twice right before Eid, countless Hindu, Jewish, Buddhist and more holidays went by in lockdown and now that its Christmas itās somehow more important? People out there telling all of us that our holidays and religions donāt matter and we have to step up for society (which we did btw) are now going āoh no not Christmas whatever will we do??ā Now that itās YOUR holiday you finally pay attention? Fuck off. We could have been careful and ended this months ago but yāall decided to play around until it came to Christmas. The government deciding to not give a shit about Eid but decide to āprotect Christmasā tells you everything you need to know.
On Rosh Hashannah it is an OBLIGATION, not a tradition, but an OBLIGATION to pray in groups of ten or more. Any other year, we must pray in person because the use of electricity is not permitted on our holy days.
I had my Rosh Hashannah alone, in my basement, through streaming. It was the first and only time my cat has gone to synagogue with me.
Christians can fucking deal like everybody else
My rabbi's dog barked through Yom Kippur services because she saw a mailman.
We all gave up having a solemn holiday praying for our souls to stay separated and not kill someone.
Suck it up, for once in your lives!
Non-Christian people have trouble even getting the time off from work or school to observe their most holy holidays, but yāall are mad that your kids canāt cough on a mall Santa during the height of a pandemic.Ā
