Frank McCormick, a former teacher and constitutional conservative, posted on X early Thursday asking if people enjoy Christmas aesthetics like lights, music, and decorations. Over 50 Jewish respondents largely expressed delight in the holiday's vibe and mood-boosting elements amid winter, noting cultural participation such as eating Chinese food on Christmas or decorating neighbors' trees. Many highlighted the irony that iconic songs like 'White Christmas' and 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer' were written by Jewish composers including Irving Berlin and Johnny Marks. While a minority opts out, the thread with over 4,000 views reflects American pluralism and shared seasonal goodwill transcending faith.

An online debate has erupted over the origins of the term 'Oyibo,' used in Nigerian languages to refer to white people or Europeans. Some claim it derives from the Yoruba word 'Oyinbo' and was adopted by Igbo speakers in the 19th century, citing S. Koelle's Polyglotta Africana where Igbo groups used 'Onyeọcha.' Others argue it is a longstanding Igbo word from early European trade contacts, with references to Itsekiri usage and Igbo terms like 'Beke,' leading to tribal exchanges and demands for pre-1700 evidence.
