Where the hell is the black Santa push coming from this year? I think I've seen black Santas before, but they are equal to or more common than normal Santas on the shelves at all the stores, including Hobby Lobby. There's apparently two Netflix movies with them this year. It's like they all got together and decided that this was the "latest thing" they were choosing to push this year.
It takes 2-3 years for ideas to be thought of and released. This came out right after the summer of love.
That's plausible. What I don't get is the universality of it.
Target? Sure, they love homos, so blasting black Santa over all the shelves is in character for them. Netflix? They're known for it. But Walmart and Hobby Lobby? I wouldn't think that every store would go this way.
