Let This Mall Show You How to Create a Christmas Display That Everyone Despises

Forget about the supposed “War on Christmas” that some have attributed to Starbucks and their plain red cups. The true battle is taking place in the realm of holiday decorations, particularly at one mall that seems to have unintentionally launched the “War on the World’s Ugliest Christmas Display.” If this mall aimed to create a Santa scene that unites both fans and critics in their bewilderment, they have certainly succeeded. It’s hard to imagine anyone finding anything positive to say about this eyesore.
Roosevelt Mall has faced backlash and threats of boycotts due to what might be the most bizarre holiday display ever conceived. Words alone can’t convey the sheer confusion it inspires; you really have to see it for yourself.
It reminds me of a bizarre set piece from a Lady Gaga concert I attended back in 2014. What exactly is it supposed to represent? A futuristic snow pod? A Jetsons-inspired Santa display? A UFO landing? It’s possibly the most misguided Christmas display ever, and if it was meant to make visitors feel at home, it’s a complete flop. While I’m not particularly religious, I believe that Christmas trees belong in a CHRISTMAS display where families take Santa photos. So what prompted this drastic design change?
Shoppers have already taken to social media, creating a page dedicated to the display. From their posts, it seems the mall is scrambling to appease customers who are threatening to boycott. Here’s their first attempt at a more festive display:
And the second attempt:
It’s… a slight improvement. The initial effort was quite dismal with those lackluster trees, and it appears they’re trying to rectify the situation. However, many comments express that it feels like a mere token effort, and I tend to agree. What should be a vibrant, whimsical Santa wonderland looks rather underwhelming. Maybe they’re working on more exciting additions but just couldn’t pull it together in time? Who knows. Regardless, it’s commendable that they’re responding so quickly to feedback.
In this case, I think the “War on Christmas” advocates might have a valid point. Families pay for photos at these displays, and who would want a picture taken in front of a strange, white pod instead of a beautiful winter scene? The weeks ahead are meant for celebration, and I doubt anyone is so offended by Christmas trees that they need to be swapped out for a minimalist display of nothingness. The mall really missed the mark with this radical change, and for once, I find the complaints to be justified.
Hopefully, the mall is planning to enhance their display to be more festive and welcoming. After all, those Santa photos can be pricey, so it’s understandable for parents to want a more appealing backdrop. As for the “War on Christmas” chatter? It would be better if people could save their energy for real issues rather than getting worked up over something as trivial as a red Starbucks cup. When genuine concerns arise, it’s crucial that they’re taken seriously.
