   @leeloo @lovelylovely Cue the long historical explainer that while "from Turkey" is true in today's political geography, it might have people believing he was a Turk, when he probably spoke Greek and would have called himself a Roman, as the Turks arrived centuries later.

     Well, he is going to end up with a vitamin D deficiency due to lack of sunlight on the north pole🤔

     (But see also the other reply about the real Santa being from Turkey).

     I can support pissing off racists and making them reveal who they really are, and if you ask me, the solution to the old problem of how Santa can reach that many homes in a few hours without breaking the speed of light is that there is more than one Santa (examples: Julemanden lives in Greenland, Jultomten in Lapland) so why wouldn't some of them be black?
