He was also the original depiction of a Christmas guy in Europe. Americans invented the fat jolly bearded elf we call Santa Claus and the Europeans copied us.

The race of a fictional character based on a Turkish man from almost 18 centuries ago shouldn’t bother anyone.


Him being white is what bothers people.

Same with say, celopatra. Her being greek really bothers people.

God being a he bothers people....


I seem to be seeing a pattern with who is bothered by this shite.

If minorities are so averse to the idea of the guy who gives away toys being a white guy, why are they okay with stealing and looting from whitey and taking government handouts paid for mostly from whitey’s tax dollars?

If someone wants to create a new character who is black, then go for it. Santa is a character based on St Nick, who is white. Simply create a new character, problem solved.

Why do you care if someone makes Santa have the same skin color as their kids? Is this really worth getting upset/annoyed about?

We are hosting an exchange student and she exclaimed quite loudly “why he black?” When she saw her first black Santa in a store. Evidently even in France Santa isn’t black.
