Married mouth-breather
In recent years there have always been at least three Lego advent calendars every year: (five each year in the last two years)
www.bricklink.com
I think they've always involved presents, Santa, elves and Christmas trees and never involved nativity scenes (the manger scene, shepherds, wise men, etc).
It is the same for the Lego Masters Christmas TV shows.... (I don't think they're allowed to have religious scenes) Tonight it is called "Bricksmas".
Is this a great victory for secular activism?
Also in the last few years there have also been Harry Potter Christmas Advent calendars - even though some Christians (including those I know) won't allow their children to watch the Harry Potter movies.
Related to that Lego has released a set about "Queer Eye for the straight guy" which is a show about 5 gay stylists.

There's also "Everyone is Awesome" which seems to involve a LGBTQIA+ style rainbow.....

So it seems Lego is woke, etc.
Though on the other hand an atheist used Lego to retell Bible stories including nudity and gore....
Also Lego has a policy that is generally against military related sets (with some exceptions)
