I've seen it, I genuinely wasn't bothered one way or the other. I think there is far more other important things to be concerned about - I just don't get the backlash.

Much of the backlash may be because of the actress chosen to portray 'Mrs Claus'. Adjoa Andoh instigated the most complained about TV comment of 2023. During live coverage on ITV of the coronation of King Charles, the Royal Family appeared on the balcony at Buckingham Palace when she, present as a guest in the studio, complained it looked "terribly white". 4165 complaints were made to Ofcom who weren't interested in the slightest, presumably because white people just can't make any complaints about racism.
