The Santa Hat on vscode insiders and pushing of religion is very offensive to me, additionally xmas has cost millions of Jews their lives over the centuries, yet even if that was not the case, pushing religious symbols as part of a product update is completely unacceptable. Please remove it immediately and make it your top priority. To me this is almost equally offensive as a swastika.

Thank you Microsoft, I am very pleased with that decision. I understand many find this strange, therefor I would like to add an article about how offensive xmas is to many so you understand why. https://www.sefaria.org/sheets/51928?lang=bi

PS: Opps, I see I already did that, still there where people who did not understand the offence, I am very surprised and in fact shocked about that...
