[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Halloween, carnival etc are days to reverse the social order and make fun of things. Parody, satire, lampooning are part of the human spirit. It seems really sad to do away with a very non harmful part of the human experience. FWIW don't know a lot of scar masks that are to make fun of people who are disfigured. Some scary and non scary pop figures are scarred...I can think of very few honestly who are incredibly disfigured? Should we also go after witches with big noses and warts, because some people have big noses and warts?[/quote] Actually the whole Halloween thing should be cancelled as it makes light of what is a serious holiday for many pagans. It really is cultural appropriation at its finest. The way ignorant people “celebrate” the day is hurtful to so many. Don’t forget the pagans have been a persecuted and oppressed group for centuries.
