    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.

    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.
