Perma-offended right-wing grifters are crying about the war on Christmas – again

For the 18-millionth time this hour, an array of eternally-offended Twitter grifters are saying Wokes have ruined Britain. And it’s that time of year when it’s over something Christmassy. Yes, it’s the trees. The shambling legion of the sad are outrage-farming over trees. Yes, you heard: trees.

They’re claiming that Christmas trees being renamed ‘evergreen’ trees. Naturally, this is a bollocks story they’ve made up. Equally naturally, ‘biology understander’ Sharron Davies was chief among the complainants:

Tesco ‘renames Christmas tree as Evergreen tree’. Bit silly. It’s a Christmas tree that people put up at Christmas to celebrate Christmas! 🤔 https://t.co/zb2q6ZnOVY

— Sharron Davies MBE (@sharrond62) November 17, 2025

Supermarket giants, of course, renowned for their elemental hatred of the Christmas season. Amazing how the ‘every tweet I do is about Trans people’ pipeline merges into the ‘I am rudderlessly angry about everything’ stream, isn’t it?

Where is this war on Christmas?

Who else has fallen for this? Britain is Broke, shockingly:

🚨 TESCO ARE NO LONGER CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS❗️

Their Christmas trees are now called Evergreen trees 🙄@Tesco do better…. pic.twitter.com/sjQtys2Stv

— BRITAIN IS BROKEN 🇬🇧 (@BROKENBRITAIN0) November 16, 2025

Though as you’ll see from the useful X note, the reality is far less concerning:

Misleading. Tesco still sells and advertises “Christmas trees” and is running a 2025 Christmas campaign; some artificial tree boxes use “Evergreen” as a product descriptor, not a decision to stop celebrating Christmas.

Here is a link which you – and, in fact, Sharron Davies – can follow to see that there are still no less than 10,000 items Tesco are selling with the word ‘Christmas’ attached to them. Yes, TEN FUCKING THOUSAND.

So if the Taliban and ISIS really have bought the majority share in Tesco, they’re not moving very fast with the renaming, are they?

The Wokes made Susan sad

Nevertheless, other Grinchy fools jumped on the bandwagon. Enter – colour me shocked – intellectual heavyweight and Tory councillor Susan Hall:

Tesco renames Christmas tree as ‘evergreen tree’ like many I am not impressed!! It’s a Christmas tree, so call it that! https://t.co/gxrvRqAwUD

— Susan Hall AM (@Councillorsuzie) November 17, 2025

While another X user found respite in the fact Lurpak had said Christmas on their packaging. Which makes you think how sad these people’s lives must be:

Thank you @Lurpak for celebrating Christmas! @Tesco should be ashamed for their "evergreen trees" pic.twitter.com/vdOqhjlGWN

— Samantha Cleaver (@ClutzWisdo14737) November 17, 2025

Lurpak is a Danish firm, by the way.

Not that it was hard to find evidence counter to these apoplectic claims. One X user shared a picture of ‘evergreen trees’ being sold under a huge sign which literally says ‘CHRISTMAS TREES’ (two thirds off with a club card, bargain):

OMFG, Tesco! Where are all the Christmas trees?! I only see evergreen trees! If only you put some signs up to show you mean Christmas trees in general instead of specifying what type of tree it is! I am so confused and angry and offended and blah! Must take to internet and cry!! pic.twitter.com/NQyPJ6v7lQ

Now these are all grating as hell. But I don’t think there is anything as pathetic as the headline the Daily Mail led with:

Britons rage over ‘woke’ Tesco’s decision to rename Christmas trees as ‘evergreen trees’

Britons? By which is apparently meant the same four people who appear in these kind of articles abut twice a week. Not the *checks notes* over 69 million people who simply do not care. Just Sharon, Susan and a handful of ALL CAPS X accounts.

    Strictly speaking, they are “Jule trees”, as that is the original name of the Midwinter festival.

    Of course, these cretins actually believe that Jesus sat around a pagan fir tree at the end of Dec, handing out presents to his followers, and probably recited some carols in King James’ english.

    You know, like that traditional Jewish ceremony at that time of year in batshit rightwingers febrile ‘minds’.
