Original Note:
The apparent omission of the word Christmas in this tweet has caused controversy. However, Christmas refers to the Christian celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, whereas traditional British customs during December typically predate or are unrelated to Christianity. https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2022/dec/03/christmas-past-present-how-secular-britain-found-new-ways-to-celebrate-the-season https://www.history.co.uk/article/the-pagan-roots-of-christmas
