Also in the original Rudolph story (the 1939 book put out by Montgomery Ward) Rudolph isn’t born among Santa’s reindeer, Rudolph is born among a normal reindeer herd who exclude him because he’s different, but Santa comes and sees that he’s special and that his being different is good and I just feel like that’s a much more appropriate characterization of Santa, than a Santa who’s a shit to people who are different.

Moral of the Book: Some people are assholes, but some will see how special you are.

Moral of the Song: People are assholes until you prove useful to them.
