This is an example of satire because it focuses on the fact that people can't say Merry Christmas anymore and that the name Christmas itself is dying. People these days can't say "Merry Christmas" without facing some type of backlash. This cartoon shows this point by having A.C.L.U. rep talking to baby Jesus and saying people can celebrate your birth, but they can't say christmas. Thats not what he says exactly but thats the point of it. This satire really hits home for a lot of people because this is a reality of modern times. You cant say Merry Christmas anymore and in some situations you can't say Christmas at all. Thats a problem for a lot of people and this piece of cartoon satire shows that problem.
