It does seem to have gone too far. Of course people need to consider others on occasion, but what does Santa matter? You move to a country, then respect that they have Santa. I don't like Santa, but then I don't won't go and visit him. It's not my right to tell everyone else that they cannot have a Santa. It is my right to say that I think Santa is a creepy, old bastard, but it isn't my right to ban him.
Nativity plays are also getting a harder time, but I have no issues with that. However, the reasons for them having a harder time are nothing to do with atheists like me. It is simply about not wanting to upset the token Muslim kids. As an older person who has wised up to the realities of religion and how it is all child abuse, I would never allow my child to take part or be indoctrinated in any Bible nonsense. I earned my first acting stripes as a Shepard, but the photographic evidence clearly shows that I was disenchanted with the entire process. As a child of atheistic upbringings, I really should not have been encouraged to take part in as warped a story as the birth of Christ.
Religion has no part to play in a classroom, but Santa isn't about religion. It's just about giving kids something fun. Religion is serious horrible shit, but Santa is just a laugh. Santa is like Peter Pan, or Thomas the Tank engine. It's only bad when adults start believing in fairy stories.

I don't see a big problem with this bus driver incident. A uniform instantly indicates the job being done. How could you possibly know the bus driver is the actual bus driver if he is dressed as father christmas? The bus could have been hijacked or something. Just saying. It's possible
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
That could be seen as biased for a certain culture if a guy can take off his required uniform for a santa's outfit, then why not an Easter Bunny outfit next holiday?
When I took the bus to highschool there was a driver who looked the part. Real beard, But he wore his uniform, just added the Santa hat & gave lollipops to kids.
His honest action to try to make people happy caused adverse reaction when a black driver was chided for wearing dashiki during Kwanza. (whites complained about him to the County bus system) He demanded his culture be accepted as well or none at all.
White Milwaukeans were pissed.
The right wing talk radio denounced everybody else's cultural holidays & countered by going into the history of the person who began Kwanza called them nasty things.
Minorities, to non christians & some churches (mixed races) countered and went on about the origin of Santa, & compared him to the Pagan god, Thor. Shit went sideways real quick!
Some churches turned against each other- saying it's the liberals fault, they don't want Jesus to be acknowledged. << That was countered by minority churches asking- why isn't Jesus in the shopping malls telling kids if they're good or bad? Its a day for merchants, selling, drinking in Jesus' name.
A local TV channel did a segment devoted to how many crimes were committed during Christmas & blamed it on the christians who promte Santa over Jesus.
All this stemmed from a guy who wore a Santa hat (real beard) while driving city bus hollering at each stop HO! HO! HO!
In this day and age, totally possible

maybe we are all just animals and we cant cure any of this stuff. maybe it will be always in the eye of the beholder and nobody will ever agree. maybe human beings will never rise above butchering and hurting each other. maybe some things never change and there's nothing anybody's ever gonna do about it. maybe if something could have been done about it, it would have been done by now. maybe that means its a fucking lost cause, the planet will blow up, the sun will go supernova and we will all fry.
