Cancel Culture Strike Again, Attempt To Kill Covid Nurse's Christmas Spirit

Want to spread a little Christmas cheer during these dark times or maybe just brighten your own spirits by continuing on with the sacred tradition of decorating for the holiday as you would any other year? Think again, because the crazed cancel culture is thriving under the current harsh conditions- at least that true in one Minnesota neighborhood.

A St. Anthony resident received a nasty letter chastising her for her Christmas lights display Monday. Kim Hunt, A Covid ward nurse, wasn't about to take the passive-aggressive slight lightly and shared the letter on Twitter.

"I couldn't help but notice your Christmas light display. During these unprecedented times, we have all experienced challenges which casual words just don't describe what we're feeling. The idea of twinkling, colorful lights are a reminder of divisions that continue to run through our society, a reminder of systemic biases against our neighbors who don't celebrate Christmas or who can't afford to put up lights of their own," the letter reads. "We must do the work of educating ourselves about the harmful impact an outward facing display like yours can have."

The letter then challenges Hunt to "respect the dignity of all people, while striving to learn from differences, ideas, and opinions of our neighbors."

"We must come together collectively and challenge these institutional inequities," the letter concludes. "St. Anthony is a community welcoming of all people and we must demand better for ourselves."

Can I send this resident 10,000 BLINKING MUSICAL lights and a Giant sleigh pulled by 8 GIANT reindeer? These people complaining are the same people who preach diversity but don't want anyone celebrating ANY individuality while they sit at home and get a paid day off. https://t.co/NecBaYfzkV

"Can I send this resident 10,000 BLINKING MUSICAL lights and a Giant sleigh pulled by 8 GIANT reindeer? These people complaining are the same people who preach diversity but don't want anyone celebrating ANY individuality while they sit at home and get a paid day off," The Covid ward nurse wrote.

Hunt told FOX News that she and her husband were 'very surprised, shocked and saddened by the letter.'

"The lights give me joy after coming home from work as a nurse working with COVID," she said. "I wish we could all celebrate diversity and honor everyone’s traditions."

She explained that "these times we live in are so divisive" and that it's "a sad statement that Christmas lights have to be a target."

"We need to be inclusive of everyone, and let’s face it, a lot of people put up holiday lights or decorate their homes for other occasions to bring beauty and happiness to what can be a very ugly world," she added.

Nurse Hunt's family weren't the only ones to receive this absurd letter. Reports indicated that at least three other homes in the same were paid a visit by the cowardly grinch. Thus far, the identity of the person or persons who wrote the letter is unknown- as they intended it to be.
