It's December which means all your favorite Christmas specials are set to be broadcast. On Monday, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer will find itself in primetime. The 55-minute long special will air at 8 p.m. ET on CBS. As many know, the film spotlights Rudolph and his journey from an outsider to being the hero of Christmas and leading Santa's sleigh. It's what happens in between, though, that causes some viewers to feel uneasy. . . Early on in the episode, Rudolph finds himself needing to wear a fake black nose to hide his "different" red nose per his parent's request. He does so to avoid embarrassment, and ultimately is the center of the joke when it feels off and the other reindeer, besides Clarice, make fun of him.

Snowflakes everywhere are triggered.

Ban Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. It is - as Disney now says - Culturally outdated and insensitive.

Just watched that last night with the kids.

We all agreed Santa and his dad were jerks.

But bullying the President, First Lady, and conservatives seems to be fine with these snowflakes.

Faux Umbridge is the fad of our times
Just recite to them from nursery rhymes

Sticks and stones
May break my bones
But
Words can never hurt me

If only Rudolf had transitioned under the care of a good transsexual and transgender doctor and given the proper hormone treatments earlier in life for his shiny proboscis, xi wouldn’t have been bullied. This is a sad commentary on the state of health care in the toy factory at the North Pole run by the evil capitalist S. Claus. Now under Elizabeth Warren’s plan...
