I think a part of that may also be that T emboldened people. It shouldn't take 'courage' to wish someone a Merry Christmas, but some people, even conservatives, become hyper aware and hyper sensitive to offending someone. Watching Trump offend everyone under the sun (lol) over a 4 year period was amusing and enlightening and I hope, I think, maybe made people realize that offending someone over something that wasn't intended to offend and actually wasn't even offensive (objectively speaking) is more the other person's problem than the one wishing Merry Christmas. So wish away. And anyway, thanks for posting that bit of encouraging news and may you make a speedy transition to a place of a ruddier hue.

Just like saying “ bless you” when someone sneezes.
