It is a Jewish thing. We don't want to be stuck with our families and its one of the few things open.

Right, but you’re about 2% of the US population, so it’s not just you that’s seeing the movies.

On Christmas Day, traditionally it has been. When I was growing up, rarely did you see a non-Jew out, especially at a restaurant. Now its much more common.

Nope. You clearly have a very myopic view of the world and clearly to see what you wanted.

You clearly aren't going out then. The people out were very clearly Jewish.

I think OP was being sarcastic, just proving the point that the cultural appropriation is pure BS.

Any non-English person speaking English here by any chance?

I’m in my 40s and always saw movies on Xmas afternoons (after opening gifts) with my family. I assure you they are not making the Xmas day releases just for Jews. Have you ever lived anywhere but DC? Most places in America have Xmas moves but no Jews.

It is cultural appropriation, and it needs to be called out as such.

Yep. This is so stupid, people. The backlash is going to be fierce if it keeps up.

Stupid progressives and BLM rioters already brought us to Trump.

You mean the backlash can be worse?

I'm not Christian and I'm not Jewish. Does that mean I can't celebrate Christmas AND can't have Chinese + movies on 12.25? So I gotta create my own "don't believe in god, but like doing something special for a date when everyone else is celebrating something and/or spending time with their family" thing?

If it is cultural appropriation ain’t shit you can do about it so take heed of the same advice given to other ethnicities when aspects of their cultures and traditions are infringed upon by society-at-large...”Tough. Deal with it and stop whining.”

That’s what I was going to say - what about all the atheists, Muslims, Buddhists etc - what are they supposed to do if they are not celebrating Christmas and the movies and Chinese food are off limits??

Not only is this not a "cultural" part of being Jewish, but there are Jews who have never done this and would never think to. It has nothing to do with Judaism and everything to do with being bored on Christmas.
