[What if scenario] What if all commercial institutions suddenly decided they no longer intend to acknowledge religious events such as Christmas?

This means no sales, no themed merchandise, no decorations. December 25 and most other day are treated just like any other day for all stores malls, restaurants, ect.

You'd still get non religious holiday events like mothers days, or independence days.

What whould change?

  • I think the beauty of this line of social media is that it is so anonymous in the sense that it doesn't matter who is behind the username. It can be the most basic bitch in Ohio, a shut-in from Italy, a porn star from Hungary or a chart breaking pop star from London. As long they have something interesting to contribute, it does not matter at all who they are. No need to prove anything. Everybody can just be.

    Edit: Oops, wrong post. But I'll leave it here, in the name of Eris!

    • Also the complete lack of context to why I'd ask the question. I could be a writer, this could be some nefarious data scheme, or im just dumb and curious. Doesn't really matter.

      Really I'd just been watching somthing like Defunctland and hearing about cool ideas that failed because they where not profitable enough.

      I wondered what if that happened to religion. What might that look like. How many people whould it take to stop giving a crap about Christmas for companies to just be like "yhea lets just not do that anymore". And without Christmas would the rate of those engaged in Christianity just fall slowly? Whould that be all it takes?

      Probably not. But figured I'll get some alternative perspective.

      • Oh, butts. I replied to the wrong post. The one I intended to respond asked if there were celebrities on the feediverse.

        I must admit, it gave me great confusion to read your response in my inbox. And now amusement.

        • No worries. It was shocking relivent for a wrong post.
