“What Would Jesus Buy?”: As Holiday Buying Frenzy Begins, New Film Tracks Anti-Consumerism Gospel of Reverend Billy

It amazes me when I hear young people and non-white people actively supporting Genocide Day and greeting people with the happy T day routine. Apparently, the message still has not been received that T day is Genocide Day. This country has become so hysterical about the sales pitch for T day that the California public schools are now closed for 3 days instead of 2 as they were when I was in school, when none would be best. As a compromise, we could have the 4th Monday in November as Harvest Holiday so people have a November paid holiday. We, the taxpayers, pay for the 3 paid holidays for the school employees and the 2 paid holidays for the state and federal employees. The reason the sales pitch for this nonsense exists is of course to promote profits for the Money Season also known as Conspicuous Consumption Season which starts with Genocide Week. The sooner everyone stops participating in both Genocide Day and the Money Season, the sooner it will end as it is all about profits. As to the above article, it is a shame it is framed as glorifying religion and small business. While Wal-Mart's conditions are terrible, all they need is serious labor organizing. Small business simply cannot meet the needs of a large country and does not provide the jobs we need. And since it is a business, it is certainly about profits. We do not need to get back Jesus, we need to get back to reality: The Money Season is all about profits and its accompanying waste of resources to maximize profits. There is no adult who can seriously say they get excited about this garbage, year after year, the same stupidity. The reliving childhood fantasy cannot last past age 30, and when one pays the bills, it ends immediately. As soon as one gets away from the commercial areas in the workingclass communities, one sees no evidence of the Money Season because it is all contrived. Boycott all of it, please, so it finally ends.
