Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

It's our favorite consumerist, political fight with family holiday of the year.

Nevertheless I hope you all have a good holiday. Here's to a new year of working class struggle.

“How can you celebrate Eid al-Fitr? There are Muslims starving and dying, don’t you feel guilty you have food and a home?”

You just exposed your lack of knowledge about Eid al-Fitr. Good job. "Zakat ul Fitr (also known as Fitrana) is a charitable donation of food that must be given before Eid prayer, before the end of the month of Ramadan, for the love of Allah. Zakat ul-Fitr is compulsory upon every self-supporting adult Muslim who has food in excess of their needs, on behalf of themselves and their dependants."

Anyways... You have been sus for a while, so I'm not going to engage with you ever again.

Yes, I am not Muslim, so I don’t fully understand Muslim holidays. Is that’s your gotcha? Really? I tried to think up a holiday in relative importance to Christmas to simply make a point. I’m not lecturing you.

I understand comrade, merry Christmas, there are millions who will celebrate today and you should celebrate with your family and such.
