Also now that this rotten holiday is over I want to diss the season’s literature;
The Grinch hating Christmas is just a phase which changes when his neighbors are happy without all the accessories and accept him (both unrealistic). Are they gonna make less noise next Christmas because he now likes the holiday?
Scrooge’s hate on is part of/proves he’s a rotten person, corrected like every other bit of it through basically divine coercion, he wouldn’t change without threats of death and damnation.

I hate to diss Dr Seuss (I have no such reverence for Dickens or any other 19th century novelist, Tolstoy I’d back down for) but frankly they’re uncomfortable stories about an uncomfortable holiday which only worsens an uncomfortable season.
