Twitter users slammed a popular tech YouTuber and former Google and Meta employee for his viral tweet claiming that saying, “Merry Christmas!<\/a>” is “highly offensive” to depressed and stressed-out people during the Christmas season.<\/p>\n

On Christmas day, Patrick Shyu, a YouTuber with nearly 1.5 million subscribers and former tech lead for Google and Meta, provided one of the Christmas season\u2019s most spot-on Ebeneezer Scrooge impressions.<\/p>\n

Trying to rain on the parades of billions celebrating the holiday, Shyu tweeted, “I find \u2018Merry Christmas\u2019 highly offensive,” and explained that there are mentally ill and depressed people who feel pressured to be jolly because of the holiday greeting.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He explained, “The holidays cause stress, depression, and mental health issues for 25-40% of people. It’s like a \u2018merriness contest\u2019 on social media to force happiness, and a Western subversion of every other culture.”<\/p>\n

Shyu also asked, “What’s a non-offensive greeting?”<\/p>\n

Despite the Grinchy post, the internet personality added that he\u2019s actually having a great Christmas and clarified that he is doing everyone a favor by not rubbing it in people\u2019s faces.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He tweeted, “To be clear, I’m having a supremely happy Christmas. Probably 100x better than yours and would cause mass-depression & carnage if I were to share such unimaginable joy on social media<\/a> and then say, \u2018oh, happy holidays to u too, lol.\u2019 I’m trying to save your life by refraining.”<\/p>\n

The bizarre post went viral on Twitter, receiving a hefty amount of criticism from those secure enough to spread Christmas cheer to their neighbors.<\/p>\n

GETTING TO THE HEART OF CHRISTMAS<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The Blaze managing editor Leon Wolf trolled Shyu, simply replying, “Merry Christmas!”<\/p>\n

The Spectator contributing editor Stephen Miller<\/a> replied to Shyu, saying, “Nobody cares if you are offended.”<\/p>\n

Author and podcaster Dick Masterson mocked Shyu by wishing him a “Good afternoon.”<\/p>\n

Spartan Media CEO Jeremy Knauff ripped the tweet, writing, “You know what else most people find highly offensive? People who run around looking for ridiculous things to be offended by.”<\/p>\n

Australian journalist T\u00e9a Smith rebuked the content creator, writing, “Relax. You mean well, but you don\u2019t speak for others. People who have Christmas trauma have agency and can deal. If they\u2019re triggered by others\u2019 happiness they need therapy. I say this as someone who doesn\u2019t like Christmas. It\u2019s good of you, but this ain\u2019t it.”<\/p>\n

Education consultant and Substack author Deb Fillman blasted Shyu, tweeting, “I find people who make everyone else responsible for their emotions, \u2018highly offensive.\u2019”<\/p>\n

Investor and entrepreneur Albert Renshaw demonstrated how ridiculous Shyu\u2019s complaining was, writing, “I find \u2018hope you\u2019re having a good week\u2019 highly offensive. I\u2019m not having a good week, how dare you be nice to me!”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
