The Santa Hat on vscode insiders and pushing of religion is very offensive to me, additionally xmas has cost millions of Jews their lives over the centuries, yet even if that was not the case, pushing religious symbols as part of a product update is completely unacceptable. Please remove it immediately and make it your top priority. To me this is almost equally offensive as a swastika.

we're sorry we hurt your and other's feelings. We'll remote the Santa Hat.

That's how the thread now ends, looking like Microsoft immediately capitulated. Microsoft deleted all the protest against such a ludicrous request.

Santa, that hat, and decorating tree has nothing to do with Christianity, Christmas or Jesus. Those are pagan customs celebrated also by non-religious people with children.

Was this whole thing a troll? What a smarmy shit.

Santa was based off of a Christian saint and this guy looks like the biggest and smarmiest asshole by being either a troll or being completely ignorant.

 

[Where Do You Find Them?]

I am not Jewish by the way, I am German, a Noahide. As a German I do have a responsibility to speak out against things like that.

Don't worry poor oppressed Jews. I, a pure and strong German man, am here to tell you what to be offended by.

Santa caused the holocaust?

Holy shit he's real and I got my wish!

I mean he's a Jew, it's hard to tell how much of it is either trolling, ignorance or just them being greedy.

There is no reason to remove a feature that thousands of people got enjoyment from because one guy got offended by it. Put the hat back.

I think it would be nice if a small festive symbol would be added to the editor overlaying an icon for the time of December. It would be a nice gesture to people celebrating Christmas. We could als...

And they say there's no war on Christmas.

ho ho ho motherfuckers

>a Jew named Christian

The majority of western jews practically celebrate xmas. Countries all over the world with no Christian culture have adopted the holiday as well. Anyone crying about a santa hat is a scumfuck and I think that's obvious to most - even woke- people. I hope all his colleagues treat him like radioactive waste after this.

Can anyone confirm if this is true

I like how he also says he's not even an hebrew, but a german "with a responsibility".
A responsibility of what, exactly? Making a clown of yourself?

It's 4d chess to fight the American cultural imperialism and go back to traditional German Christmas figures.

Down with Santa, we need Saint Nicholas back!

It is at least as true as the death counts reported during the Holocaust.

 

[Iron Hamster]

Can't wait for Easter now.

I'm awaiting him demanding to add a Menorah for Hannukah, which will result in an instant implementation of that feature, because muh 6 gabzillions.

Also, PortableApps.com Menu has both a Menorah and a Santa hat icon for their respective holidays. I wonder if he would stir shit on their forums too and what would be the result of it.

Self-flagellating over what their ancestors did. It's pretty much legally mandated in Germany.

Oh Lord, so it's another case of a white person being offended for a minority that isn't actually offended at all. I swear I die a little inside whenever I see that happen.
