White Santa?
Can you guys believe the well of outrage that has risen around the "Santa Claus is white" fiasco?
I mean, we're talking about a fictional entity to begin with, so clearly there is no definitive answer? conclusion? yet the debate rages on.
Here's my take on the whole thing. This proves beyond all doubt that racial minorities are as racist as any white out there. Simply put if a white threw a fit over a blanket statement that Santa was black, the white would be the target of ridicule for his bias.
Same goes, IMO, for the minorities who refuse to accept the possibility that Santa could be white. Why are they so insistent that Santa must be of their racial preference?

Be careful to understand what I've just said. I DID NOT SAY that whites ARE superior. I just think that many minorities (at the individual level) feel inferior, and the angst against whites is more a form of their resentment, than anything else.
