The War on Christmas appears to be over, depending on who you ask. Early in December, YouGov released a poll showing that 23% of American adults still believe that war is raging, with 31% undecided and 46% unconvinced. It's a significant drop from two years ago, when up to 39% of adults believed that Christmas was under attack, invariably from the direction of the left and spearheaded by those who sought to snuff out good holiday cheer in the name of supposedly woke pluralism.
"Parents have bravely pushed back against woke propaganda in the schools, elected better leaders, and have fought for their children’s education over woke indoctrination," crowed GOP education official Ryan Walters on the Daily Wire. But even in supposed victory, his gloating found few echoes; the so-called War on Christmas, rather than ending in climactic struggle and triumph, seemed to just fade away from the national discourse.
