While going to international cartoon sites this week, about 25% of what I found, were depictions of covid ruining Christmas. Dismal images meant to... amuse? The central theme being alienation and disease if one dares celebrate... Did I post any? No. We do not need more ugly visuals regarding the season.
A few years ago, in their annual Christmas speeches to the public, both the Queen and the Pope mentioned no Christmas coming next winter. Now here we are about 4 yrs later and ... ain't foreshadowing great, boys and girls? The long dark winter they are currently promising?
My rebellion is to try to celebrate what is still good ... and not give in to their despairing message. But they have been trying to kill Christmas for decades and... again, here we are.
