Tesco Christmas advert attacked for featuring Muslim family

As if the majority of people complaining even celebrate the religious side of Christmas, probably the same bunch who kicked off about Halal Easter eggs.

So depressing. People complain if muslims "don't integrate into Britain" but also attack them for celebrating Christmas (Nadiya from bake off is another example of this happening)
You can't win with some people |
What sad lives they must lead

Damned if you, damned if you don't

Some haven’t taken too kindly to Tesco’s inclusive message, with one Twitter user claiming to be a devout Christian feeling “very offended”.
Another user said “@Tesco why are you showing Muslims celebrating Christmas in your advert. That’s just wrong, we all know they don’t!!!”. So 2 Twitter users complained? there will always be idiots on Twitter is anyone surprised :shrug: |

In articles like this they'll take two or three examples because, you know, you'd be scrolling for years if they listed all the tweets relating to the story. |

That devout Christian who claimed to be offended needs to re-evaluate his life choices and get out more.
Christmas is about as religious as Halloween nowadays. |

Saw a load of this stupidity on fb.
People should celebrate what they want, how they want, when they want, where they want. Muslims celebrating Xmas are no different to us atheists who do so. Christmas trees and turkey dinners are hardly religious, any more than Easter bunnies and bonnets. Good on Tesco for including us all in the celebration of Xmas, whatever it means to us. |

Of course there was positive tweets, does that somehow lesson the blatant racism in your eyes? |

Or just that a Muslim dares to shop at Tesco to make their Christmas dinner? :joker: |
Also what's the point in comparing it to John Lewis' advert? Do they feature muslims in their advert as well or are you trying to liken people taking offense at muslims being present in an advert to people simply not liking the JL advert?
If so, your logic is fatally flawed. |

What's the problem with the mixed race family in the JL ad? I haven't heard that one.

All I gather from this is that you are trying to take the thread off topic while downplaying apparent racism in in response to both adverts. |

I don't think it's a "UK is racist" narrative.
