And it's not really even celebrating A Thing anymore, because it's more secularized than Christmas without even the generalized moral of "hey, be nice and generous to other dudes ok"
Personally I'm a big fan of all holidays, but like, they all kind of suck in their own special ways, ALL of which include rampant consumerism. It's not really fair to have an exception to that.
