Fox News: The #Metoo-campaign is destroying Christmas.

https://www.rawstory.com/2017/12/fox-news-ingraham-laments-that-metoo-movement-is-killing-all-the-fun-of-christmas-parties/

“Is the #MeToo movement becoming a spoiler for this season’s Christmas parties?” Ingraham asked comedian Jimmy Failla.

Citing some companies’ decision to limit alcohol consumption at professional gatherings, Ingraham said, “I can see this year it might be — a little less festive, let’s say that. No alcohol and no fun and no lampshades and, I don’t know, maybe that’s better.”

“Is this just killing all the fun of Christmas?” she demanded.





--------------------------

Getting so piss-drunk that you put on a lampshade and make out with a coworker? Now that's the real Christmas-spirit!

And you immoral liberals will never understand that!

The movement is not well organized at this phase and the right with Fox used them and their planted victims to their advantage...Now, they will crush the movement in the social media platforms.

By recognize this intended actions by the right...' Me Too" can work at defense tactics...

If the Republican Party's upending the American systems we all grew up with weren't demanding far more attention to politics than normal, Fox would be moribund or completely restyled by now.

Restaurants are lucky if they break even on the food. All the profit margin is in selling booze. It also accounts for a lot of tips.

Stupid drunken behavior is part of an awesome holiday.

KrisKringlemas is the Corporate version of Christmas.

Sweet irony, complaining about not being able to get drunk at a work function ....wishing the company was more "liberal" with alcohol.
