We’re over a month out from Christmas, or the holiday season to be politically correct, and Starbucks’ 2015 holiday cup has riled up more hoards of controversy than the recent attacks on Paris. Facebook might as well advertise: “Change your profile picture to support the most argued over inanimate object and all the Christians it has offended.”

On Nov. 3, Starbucks rolled out the year’s most anticipated beverages and its iconic red holiday cup, only this time without any holiday insignia.

Starbucks Shift Supervisor and Moorpark College graduate Danielle Sturdevant weighed in on the controversy.

“It had to do with the history and tradition,” said Sturdevant. “It’s Starbuck’s anniversary for the Christmas Blend. We’re bringing back what they did originally.”

The Starbucks Christmas Blend debuted thirty-one years ago in its iconic red bag according to Starbucks website. Matching this year, the red cups are a tribute to the Christmas Blend anniversary.

The red cup controversy flared when Christian customers found this year’s plain color scheme to be lacking in Christmas representation.

“They don’t change their cups for Chanukah,” said second year Moorpark College student Noah Barney.

Yet again, Americans have given the internet a reason to laugh at their utter stupidity. There is something fundamentally wrong with societal priorities if a large majority have chosen to focus their anger and resentment on a cardboard cup.

Moorpark College student Lisa Rojanasopondist chimed in saying, “people are petty, because in the end they’re going to throw it away.”

Take a media break, reflect, read the news, and by news I don’t mean Buzzfeed. Of course it’s entertaining to be outraged or laugh at those outraged or even poke fun at those laughing at the outraged, but major current events are happening outside your bubble of social media and pumpkin spiced lattes.
