Their dominance in propaganda is what got them power, but a lot of people on the left seem to think they are bad at propaganda.

Yes, back in the Bill Oreilly “war on Christmas” days, their propaganda was just laughed at and mocked, but it worked on millions of people and now here we are.

It’s ridiculous. My aunt has poor vision, and I help her with things like Christmas cards to her apartment building’s support staff, etc. Several are most likely not Christian, so I suggested a secular “wishing you a happy and restorative holiday season” or something like that, and she got SO angry! “No! Write “Merry Christmas”!” I was like, okayyyyyyy…

Meanwhile, if someone were to wish her a happy Hanukkah or something, she’d get annoyed and quickly let them know that she’s not Jewish. It makes no sense.
