I told CoL this before. Have literally anyone portray Santa in the malls, commercials, anything.

Start a new lie for children. Santa is this magical being. He can travel all over the world in one night right? So Santa can transform into whatever look he wants to as well. So he could be anyone so make sure you act good for everyone because that person might be Santa.

There. Now anyone can play Santa and now kids will be so paranoid about some random person being Santa that they will be overly-respectful. Done and done.

Of course Joe Rogan thinks this is a real problem. No outrage is too small for him to make a big deal over it. Lol.

You want to stop this? Like, real quick? You find that scene from The Cosby Show where the little girl asks him what race Santa is, and he starts off on a minutes-long joke where Santa matches whatever race the people in the house are, but one time he was visiting a friend's house and Santa arrived and there was much confusion. There are probably still clips of this all over YouTube.

You get those clips going viral again, and shapeshifting-Santa dies yesterday.

This shouldnt be an issue, people shouldnt be so buttflustered over something that isnt real. So what if Santa is gender neutral, so what if the new name is SantX. Stop getting so worked up over this like that loser Joe Rogan.

This "news" story is a holdover from the last couple of years. I've said it before and I'll say it again - any group of people that is picketing for a female or non-binary Santa is a tiny, negligible section of the populace at large, and a grand majority of people don't care.

This headline has been rolled out for multiple Christmases in your standard "political correctness gone mad!" fashion. It's just to get clicks and to whip the "War on Christmas" assholes up into a frenzy.

If a small subset of people want to create a new icon for their Christmas activities, they'll do that and share it with like-minded individuals. There is no real, honest to god attempt to supplant the current Santa Claus with a new character in his likeness to meet a political quota or to serve a political need, and anyone telling you that there's a serious push for this is being a disingenuous bastard.

My preferred Santa would be an anime catgirl, but I really don't care either way. Let different people believe what they want and have whatever Santa they want. Jolly old man, gender-neutral, shapeshifter, anime catgirl, whatever. What really matters is everyone having a happy and fun holiday.

Yes.

Also the legend of Santa Claus we know was brought over by Dutch immigrants.

So leftists are wanting to culturally appropriate another cultures folklore without paying any respect to the source to be politically correct.

If that article is true, a quarter of respondents want it. So it's either trolling or sincere left leaning people.

Conservatives certainly wouldn't ask for a change to santa. They make a big stink about race swapping santa.

The source is white people so leftists dont care. If one them takes issue with a gender neutral black Santa then theyll be yelled at to check their white devil privilege.

The character is public domain so there's really nothing stopping 27% of people from just drawing a female Santa or hiring a fat chick to sit in the park wearing red and white.
