Reply to comment by TheToastIsBlue in TIL that the narrative that Coca-Cola designed the modern Santa Claus as part of an advertising campaign is not true, because Coca-Cola did start using Santa in advertising in 1933. But Santa had been portrayed almost exclusively in red from the early 19th century by giuliomagnifico

You're saying that Coke did indeed invent the modern Santa Claus despite them saying they didn't. What evidence do you have to support this claim?

I'm not saying anything of the sort. It's offensive for you to put words in my mouth.

I'm asking if the above user is trying to suggest that the Coca-Cola corporations wouldn't lie.

Coke says they didn't invent Santa. You say we should not believe them when they say that.
