It's pretty clear that his is a fake Santa Claus with a politically correct view on his festivalness.

What next, pretend Santa? Mordorian health insurance or job security?

No time to spare, not a moment to waste,
I'll give out today's gift at a rather fast pace,
Watch out or you might get CLINKED in the face!


On the fourth day of Festival, Entmoot gave to me:

Four good cheers,


Three thumbs up,


Two goblin hoards strikethroughs,


And a party under a tree.
