Since Social Justice Warriors have colonized and appropriated the Christian holiday of Valentine's Day into "V Day"...
You make is sound like its something odd or terrible to "colonize and appropriate" a Christian holiday.
Appropriating holidays is a long-standing tradition. Christmas used to be solemn holiday of reflection of what we did wrong over the year, and of the poor begging at the doors of the rich. Now its some happy day of gift-giving and celebration, because it was "colonized and appropriated" by some namby-pambys who don't appreciate the seriousness of life and eternity.
And do you think the Feast of Saint Valentine was always about love and chocolates and Hallmark cards? Your ancestors would be horrified at what it's become! Changing the name to "V Day" is the
least of the sacrilege...
In fact Christmas and Easter themselves are appropriated holidays, colonized by the Christians. Originally they were solstice and fertility festivals, but Christians early on used them as propaganda to convert the heathens, changing their significance to days supposedly to celebrate the birth of Jesus and his resurrection. The
last people who should criticize that holidays were "appropriated" are Christians!

People are going to celebrate holidays the way they want to, whether they were originally Christian, pagan, or something made up by a lady who thought mothers should get more recognition than they do. And there's nothing you can do about it. So get used to it. You just sound silly getting outraged over something that's been going on for millennium.
