TYT: People Freak Out Over Christmas Sweater

[WhoIsNumberNone]

Target is being accused of trivializing mental health issues, because of a sweater they sell in their store. The sweater reads "OCD Obsessive Christmas Disorder" and some claim that it is offensive to people who suffer from obsessive compulsive disorder. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian (The Point) hosts of The Young Turks discuss.

Is this sweater offensive to you? Let us know in the comments below.

"Target is marketing one of this season’s Christmas sweaters as “ugly” and some customers agree—but perhaps not for the reason the retail giant had hoped.

Target is selling a red “OCD: Obsessive Christmas Disorder,” sweater, one of a line of “ugly” sweaters designed for trendy holiday parties at which revelers don their dullest duds. But many consumers are upset by the message. Making light of obsessive compulsive disorder—which affects about 2.2 million American adults, according to the National Institute of Mental Health—they say, is not cute or funny."

1. I'm not really understanding the outrage about the sweater, is this our red Starbucks cup issue?

That being said, who the fuck is the jackass guy in this video? I so wish he was gone. What a bag.

3. This is stupid.

You know how things get at Christmas. The sweater was meant to be a joke, to lighten up some of that stress. How stupid do you have to be not to see that?

Go help at a homeless shelter. Give someone a hand who is mentally ill and sad over the holidays.
