  Since Santa isn’t real, I would say the answer is a definitive, no.

    Santa has an ethnicly homogenous slave workforce trapped in a secret location facing sub-zero work conditions and runs a global child surveillance system supporting an opaque punishment algorithm.

    There is no way he’s a good guy.

      For anyone who hasn’t seen it, give David sedaris’ “6-8 black men a listen.”

      Dumbledore is Santa Claus?

        Both are old, bearded, and project a friendly, wise-grandfather image.

        Both lead a closed community with strict hierarchies.

        Both have elf slave labor.

        Both run surveillance operations: Dumbledore has the portraits, Fawkes, the Marauder’s Map (by proxy), and Santa has the Naughty-or-Nice list.

        Both maintain a mystique that disguises how much control they actually wield.

        However, I still think Santa is more likely to be evil.

      The elves should unionize. Let’s see that fat-ass Santa make a few billion gifts on his own.

  No, just slavery.
