Are ya ready kids?!
Santa is strictly non interventionist because he's a child-friendly metaphor for God. A child asks, "why doesn't Santa help Rudolph?", and the lack of satisfying answer to that prepares them for when they're an adult and they ask, "Why doesn't God help the poor?".
Rudolph getting put in front of the Reindeer team is the meek inheriting the Earth.
Why the fuck does the song assume we know Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen, but it has to ask if we recall Rudolph, despite him being "the most famous" reindeer of all?
Back when it came out, it was a tongue-in-cheek joke. “SURELY you must remember the most FAMOUS reindeer that we certainly didn’t just make up, right?!”
Santa is prejudice, that's why he never delivers presents to poor kids.
"...then all the reindeer loved him..."
The shallow hypocrisy manages to burst through what is supposed to be an uplifting song, or something.
He knew.
Santa does not take a moral stance on the crimes of the creatures of the world. He just delivers them what they are due.
That's because reindeers don't have shelves to put elves on.
Gee, I hope somebody was fired for that blunder.
He knew, he just didn't give a shit until Rudolph happened to be useful. It's a capitalist moral sorry, showing that you will get things and be treated well only if you are useful to the rich overlords.
Of course he knew. That's why he invited Rudolph into the lead position, at the front of the reindeer team. Santa didn't really need a red light.
My takeaway as a kid was that bullies don't get punished.
the magic flying reindeer union is not to be trifled with.
I assume power only works on humans.
Then explain why my good doggo gets little gifties! Check and mate.
Cause there are no bad doggo. Makes them Ez
We know that cows get bullied and murdered and it's not gonna change.
