    I had no idea that Christmas was this precarious. But when Jill Biden released a video of tap dancers doing their version of The Nutcracker ... then the entire holiday season and, to some degree, Christianity itself was destroyed.
    Thanks, Jill!

    The video is dumb.

    The faux outrage to the video is dumb.

    The faux outrage to the faux outrage is dumb.

    All of this is imminently ignorable.

    There appear to be a couple of flaws in the photograph. Do you have a copy without the black stripes so that I can more efficiently make up my mind as to how appropriate the display is?

    Jill's Hunger Games video from a marxist dancing group was ill-advised.

    The organization pushes website users toward the organization Critical Resistance, which "seeks to build an international movement to end the prison industrial complex (PIC) by challenging the belief that caging and controlling people makes us safe," as well as INCITE! – a "network of radical feminists of color organizing to end state violence and violence in our homes and communities."

    INCITE! also pushes allegations of "genocide" against the Israeli government on their homepage, which reads "free Palestine" at the top and pushes a digital poster for download reading, "feminists of color rise up free Palestine."

    Additionally, Dorrance Dance's "educate yourself" page provides resources for "those who are investigating or have questions about white privilege, systemic racism, white fragility, and anti-racism for the very first time."

    Well I tried watching their Christmas tree lighting ceremony and switched the channel after a few. Crisis averted and the holiday was saved!

    So, beyond watching the dance video ... if you go to the group's website, click through the various tabs, you'll see links that take to something that you disagree with?
    No offense, but it sounds like Christmas is still safe, right?

    Dude you just don’t get it. Do I have to spell it out for you? There’s a reason it’s called a “white Christmas”.

    I suspect the White House got the reaction they were hoping for. The features being critiqued here were not incidental. The effeminately dressed men, the masculinely dressed women….all of it is intentional. The same kind of people who want to slip an LGBTQ character into a Disney movie are the ones who are behind this. This is about the cultural reproduction of a morally nihilistic values system. They are playing the long game here and gradually slipping these things in where they can get away with it.

    Yawn. This might mean some if the people who speak the loudest about morals actually exhibited some of their own.

    It’s not my thing for a Christmas theme - but whatever. However it’s fascinating watching Fox & maga respond to it. With Melanie’s crazy decorations, people just made jokes comparing it to the Shining, etc. but we all felt like we could still celebrate Christmas. for this White House theme maga is losing their minds. wailing that “they are ruining Christmas”.
    Btw, maga no longer has the high road / party of family values after they set their moral compass to Trump.
