Collection of some art that's part of the so-called WAR ON SQUIDMAS and a write-up here. http://www.koopatv.org/2015/12/the-turf-war-against-squidmas.html

In the meantime, some excerpts:

Is this a deliberate water-washing of Squidmas and what it stands for? Maybe this Inkling genuinely doesn't know what the holiday is called because, as you've seen in this article, people keep referring to it by different things. Words matter. There is this cumulative obfuscation that is seriously affecting Inkling culture now. What used to be a revered holiday is now being lost among the people.

This is completely stupid, and so is the war on xmas thing. Some people aren't religious, some aren't Christian, but another religion. Do not bring your trash onto a game and try to force your crap on kids. It's not right. It's like shoving political crap on here.

This isn't to you, TC, but the person that did that.

Has "Squidmas" shown up officially in game outside of Splatfest? Could it be possible that some of these players have not seen how the squid sisters refer to it as "Squidmas"? I like any and all ink/squid/sea related puns people can make in this game, so I'm not bothered when I see Splatmas or Inkmas. I'm just happy whoever wrote the miiverse posts felt joy and wanted to share it with inkopolis.

Also would like to note:

On December 28th, one of Nintendo's Newsletters had the subject line, "Merry Squidmas: Free Splatoon updates"

VINDICATION?
