Spoiler alert: We shouldn’t. Extreme political partisanship seems to invade almost everything, these days. The truth is, though, that both sides do not share the blame equally for this state of affairs. The progressive woke left cannot resist the urge to color every event, every symbol, every cultural reference, and even every national holiday with its increasingly bizarre ideology. The rest of us simply cannot be left alone to enjoy anything without hearing a lecture about how terrible we are for merely observing the kinds of things Americans – and other Westerners – have innocently celebrated for many decades or even centuries. The culture-Karens of the Church of Woke stubbornly refuse to live and let live.

The antics of the wokesters, as they try to kill every opportunity for normal people to eat, drink, and be merry, range from ludicrous to downright nasty to stunningly profane. Case in point; leftist zealots over in England decided to rewrite a beloved Christmas carol to make it more woke. The All Saints and Holy Trinity Choir in Loughborough sang an altered version of “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen” during a carol service on Dec. 19.

The new, more “inclusive” rendition, according to the Express, began, “God rest you queer and questioning, your anxious hearts be still.” Another line was, “God rest you also, women, who by men have been erased.” That part, at least, is somewhat accurate. The woke left is indeed trying its best to erase women by claiming an inability to define “woman” and encouraging men to enter women’s sports, crushing all female competition.
