Christmas Movie, but it's from the perspective of Jesus Christ, who sneaks back to Earth, and is immediately confused why everyone is celebrating his birthday in December.
He wanders into a Megachurch on accident, thinking it was a mini mall, and hears an evangelist (who lives in a mansion) taking the Lord's name in Vain to guilt donations out of people. Then he gets arrested for rushing the stage and beating that guy with a whip.
A significant chunk of the movie is just his elaborate escape from prison, wherein he starts a riot upon learning how cruelly the prisoners are treated by a blasphemous carceral system.
The movie ends with him using God Magic on the president of the US, and being formally declared the Anti Christ by the Catholic Church

I've found it. The leading front of the War on Christmas.
[ID: a photograph of a seasonal decor aisle at Target. The right side has Halloween decorations such as pumpkins, cauldrons, and orange lanterns. The left side contains exclusively Christmas decor including advent calendars, reindeer figurines, and signs reading 'merry and bright'. The tension is palpable.]

The biggest reason the war on "Happy Holidays" is dumb as fuck is that even in a strictly Christian context, the holidays in question are Christmas and New Year's.
Even the most carefully sheltered religious ignoramous who's never heard of Diwali or Chanukah HAS heard of New Year's Day. You know—that thing that happens a week after Christmas? That's often a government-mandated statutory holiday? Where all the calendars change? So close to Christmas that many businesses, schools, and other institutions often take the days between them off too?
It's so absolutely clear that the grown adults peddling this crap are making something up to get angry about, because Christians have been wishing each other Happy Holidays for centuries. (Twelve whole days of Christmas, and extra events like Epiphany or Feast of the Innocents, too! These days we even get Second Christmas, for the Julian calendar folks!)
They're not angry about "erasing Christmas". Christmas is indelible. They're angry at having to acknowledge literally any other religion as having a right to exist, more or less. They want to live in a theocracy, while simultaneously saying that religious oppression would be terrible if it happened... to them.
I'm so goddamn sick of it. Of people who ask "Which holidays?" as if it's some sort of sick burn, not something that can slide from moderate inanity through to actively bigoted malice.
Keep Christ in Christmas?
Great idea. You start. Love your neighbour and shut the fuck up.

I was playing a VR rail shooter about the War on Christmas made by fundamentalist Christians. While playing it, I remembered they had made another similar game called Wizard Jesus.

Secular Christmas is a scam invented by Christianity to sell more Christianity.

If you say "Merry Christmas" to someone and they respond with "Happy Holidays" or "Happy Hanukkah", they're not censoring you. They're not waging a war on Christmas. They're not saying that they're offended by you saying "Merry Christmas". They're not saying that you should have said something else.
They're only using their preferred holiday greeting, just like you did.

A Christmas movie, but it's entirely from the perspective of an elf trying to unionize Santa's factory. (Santa is, of course, the villain here.)

"This is what an ACTUAL war on Christmas looks like."
with a picture of a package of green candy canes labeled as Caesar salad flavor.
The flavor sticker has a picture of a bowl of salad that appears to be a face with lemons for eyes and a smile on the side of the bowl. Two candy canes stick out of the bowl and almost look like vine arms.]

Friends, Romans, Countryfen...I bring bad tidings from the land of the wind. Christmas has escaped containment and crossed the Halloween Line. We expect ornaments before much longer.
THE TIME HAS COME!
RELEASE THE SKELETONS!
[ID: A photograph of a sales rack at Target in the South Loop, filled with chocolate advent calendars by Lindt, Elf on the Shelf, and The Mandalorian. I know it’s just overstock they’re trying to get rid of from last year but still. Have some basic decency, Target!]
