Yep. While two billion Christians around the world celebrate Easter Sunday on this 31st day of March, Google is using its famous “Doodle” search logo art to mark the birth of left-wing labor leader Cesar Chavez.
For real:
Christians from all walks of life and political views expressed shock, dismay, and exasperation with Google’s diss:
Google is going with the Cesar Chavez doodle on Easter. Ok then.

Annoyance of the day: It's Easter and Google's new graphic is celebrating Cesar Chavez's 86th birthday.

Wow. Congrats Google, youve managed to alienate all Christians in America today: instead of celebrating Christ, they celebrate Cesar Chavez.

Today's Google Doodle honors César Chávez, who is shown wearing white resplendent clothes as befits one risen from the dead. Er, wait.

Good question:
So the Google doodle for Easter is Cesar Chavez? Seriously? They just trying to annoy folks?

Google’s Doodle logo overlords sure have a way of rubbing their politics in people’s noses:
Google doodle honors D-Day with tribute to drive-in movie theaters
Google blows off Memorial Day with miniature flag clip art
