Is there an add-on that allows me to do the following?

What’s a very easy way to do the following via programming? js or whatever.

I want to delete or hide a HTML section that has specific text. Using regex on the source HTML is quick, dirty, and ugly but is there another very easy way? There isn’t - is there?
The thumb is an example. I want the Christmas shit gone.
So - if \b(Christmas)\b is in a TR then hide or delete it.
Quick/dirty is key. And I don’t want to spend untold hours trying to learn and then failing to learn how to programmatically do it the right way. I know regex can be a nightmare but I want to do be able to do the removal/hiding at other sites too.
I don’t see another way to reuse this method on any site. [Edit: That was confusing.]
You can do it with just ublock but it still slow the page down https://superuser.com/questions/1285891/ublock-hide-any-element-that-contains-text-with-a-given-word
Thanks.
Do they mean every page on example.com or every page I visit on the net?
Heh.
By default ublock won’t want to apply this type of filter to every page, just the pages of whatever site you make the rule for. That’s why the second comment is talking about going into advanced settings to enable it globally. If you do that it will slow down EVERY page. It might not be noticeable, depends on your hardware.
Thanks. Ah.
I’ll leave that off. I don’t want to create unneeded headaches for myself. Per site is fine. Sorry to waste your time. I should have thought more and read more before insta-posting in worry. Actually - I should always do that. But that’s another story.
