Read through the posts. Funny how we spend so much time on trivial matters. Who cares. I would never know if they played it or not during the holiday season. Just stay away from my 60's /70's Rock lyrics LOL.
Exactly I even had this argument with another poster on these forums. He claimed, that some of these changes in societal norms is life or death, he stated look at the US and Trump. Well I would argue Trump was a by product of the left or these ideological few points, with people in the middle getting sick of it and wanting a change, any change even if wasn't the right one.
The problem is more and more people are joining these snowflakes ranks and feel the need to be their defenders. It starts creating a mob mentality and pretty soon it will get physically violent (professor who hit that 21 year old student during a protest with a bike lock in the States) to go with the mental abuse. Look at the Humboldt tragedy and that Nora Loreto with over 10,000 twitter followers talking about how it's getting so much attention because the kids were male, white and young? Now you might say she's making an observation but I feel like she was pushing her limits to see if her sick SJW narrative could inch closer into an even darker territory where we start to not feel sympathy for our fellow human beings based on a perceived or real privilege.

To be honest, it feels like everyone on here complaining about the song being removed are the ones being sensitive, everyone still has the option to listen to it. I don't know but I don't think there were angry protests about this song. It just seems like the private stations made a decision that they didn't want to play this song because it has been criticized for being a little out of touch. The difference between this and other inappropriate music is that I think we as a society like our Christmas music to be innocuous and it is often played in public places.
I don't really care one way or the other, but this isn't the radical left coming for anyone its just stations judging that their listeners don't want the song anymore. No one is being censored, it isn't illegal to play the song, and there is no governing body saying they can't. Society changes, stuff gets out of touch, this isn't really anything new.

Finally, a voice of reason in this thread. No one is being censored, the song is not banned, and the only people who seem to be bent out of shape about this are the people complaining about the decision a few radio stations made to not play a song they feel their listeners don't want to hear. Seems pretty trivial to me.
I think everyone holds such strong opinions because it's the beginning of Dec. let's revisit this on Dec 26th and see how many are glad all Xmas music is being pulled from the radio (for another 11 months).
Poor Mall workers

So people who resulted in the song getting removed from circulation on a few radio stations = snowflakes
But
People outraged over a song no longer being played on a radio station = .....not snowflakes....somehow....?
Ok lol.
Just saw this circulating around facebook, enjoy!
Since you decided to pull “Baby it’s Cold Outside” from its playlist because someone was offended, I feel that these other holiday songs are also on the chopping block.
How did our generation ever survive?
1. I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus: subjecting minors to softcore porn
2. The Christmas Song: Open fire? Pollution. Folks dressed up like Eskimos? Cultural appropriation
3. Holly Jolly Christmas: Kiss her once for me? Unwanted advances
4. White Christmas? Racist
5. Santa Claus is Coming to Town: Sees you when you’re sleeping? Knows when you’re awake? Peeping Tom stalker
6. Most Wonderful Time of the Year: Everyone telling you be of good cheer? Forced to hide depression
7. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer: Bullying
8. It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas: Forced gender-specific gifts: dolls for Janice and Jen and boots and pistols (GUNS!) for Barney and Ben
9. Santa Baby: Gold digger, blackmail
10. Frosty the Snowman: Sexist; not a snow woman
11. Do You Hear What I Hear: blatant disregard for the hearing impaired
12. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas: Make the yuletide GAY? Wow, just wow
13. Jingle Bell Rock: Giddy up jingle horse, pick up your feet: animal abuse
14. Mistletoe and Holly: Overeating, folks stealing a kiss or two? How did this song ever see the light of day?
15. Winter Wonderland: Parson Brown demanding they get married…forced partnership
16. I'll Be Home For Christmas: Not if you are homeless. That's just Insensitive
17. Grandma got ran over by a reindeer: Homicide. Extremely violent and promotes alcoholism.

Well.. here's a really interesting take on the song.. and it's actual original meaning.

Isn't it crazy how picking and choosing parts of a song, or even parts of lines for that matter can spin the narrative in whichever way you see fit. The main stream media is notoriously bad for this when displaying "facts", but it looks like the fragile parts of society have taken note when deciding what the next "hot topic" to be offended about is and their reasoning behind it.
Thank god there's always two sides to a story, and this woman's apparent knowledge on the subject shares the "other side" of it.

Amen. Free speech is still very much intact, nothing is threatening that. This "problem" and other similar issues of political correctness are easily solved by the most fundamental concept of economics; supply and demand. If there is a demand for this song or anything else deemed politically incorrect, somebody will supply it. Bottom line. Now we can end the circle of fake outrage and focus on issues that actually matter.

Yes, those people have the right to lobby for changes that matter to them, other people can lobby against those changes, and the business can consider both sides and make changes or not, based on what they believe will benefit their business the most. Welcome to democracy! All this is, by which I mean political correctness as a whole, is freedom at work, and some people taking exception to the outcome.
