I have found, thinking about the above words, that if you perform the duties of a devil's avocado, especially about covid and maybe it being a scam, you can alienate entire Christmas get togethers.
Not that I feel strongly either way, or at least I won't admit as to which side of the fence I tumble down on ... just that throwing the topic into the fray has such a disappropriate level of response.
I have a few advocates in my kitchen, soon as they are ripe ....

^^The "devil's avocado" gave me a chuckle. My brother makes what he calls devil's guacamole, which has habanero peppers in it.

I must point out however that disappropriate is a verb, meaning to take something away from someone, often after having misappropriated something.

At any rate, playing the devil's avocado is probably not a good tactic at a holiday gathering.

Cheers.
