Mona is the perfect Sophist! She makes the Better appear the Worse with ease, and would no doubt attract a ready following among those eager for such Revisionism.
The real St. Nick - assuming the main lore is roughly correct - was better.
His sneaking around at night and tossing in gifts (not breaking into homes) was usually to anonymously give money to those in desperate need.
In general, his priority was care for those at the bottom of the social and economic scale. No matter what you believe, that’s worthy.
One’s relation with Santa Claus passes through three stages. First, you believe in Santa Claus. Then you don’t believe in Santa Claus. Then you are Santa Claus.

It’s officially the holiday season.
The Corona ad with the guy whistling O Tanenbaum, then lighting the palm tree on the beach, was just on.
Elves of the world unite! You have nothing to lose but oppression!

It’s best to read this comic while listening to Greaseman’s “Blasterpiece Theater - Night before Christmas.”

He’s immortal, and he’s got magical powers. Please don’t piss off Santa.
