Why I'm Having an Unscented Christmas

[WilmaReportu]

That's why this year, I've decided to have an unscented Christmas. I used to love the smell of Christmas spices, but then I started to learn about the harmful practices of certain spice companies that exploit workers in countries like India and Indonesia.

These companies often pay poverty wages and subject their workers to dangerous working conditions. By buying their products, we are directly supporting these practices and perpetuating the cycle of systemic oppression and inequality.

And don't be fooled by the seemingly harmless names of these spice companies. Just because a company has a catchy name that alludes to a cultural tradition doesn't mean they actually honor that tradition in their business practices.

In fact, many of the spices we use today have their origins in specific cultures, such as anise from the Mediterranean, ginger from Asia, and cloves from Indonesia. These cultures have been cultivating and using these spices for centuries, and by using them without acknowledging their cultural significance, we are perpetuating a culture of cultural erasure.

So as a good netizen and aspiring moderator, instead of filling my home with the scent of Christmas spices, I'll be using unscented Lysol. to create a holiday atmosphere that is inclusive and equitable for all. I'll be incorporating other scents and decorations that celebrate the diversity of our world and honor the cultural traditions of all people.

The smell of social justice

Because after all, celebrating the holidays isn't just about one person, culture, or experience. It's about creating a space for all to come together and celebrate the beauty of our diverse world.
