    The Whos, like all species, have a degree of diversity. Grinches are just a Who ethnic minority. Whoville is a Sundown Town; Grinches aren’t allowed in city limits after nightfall. Why do you think The Grinch lives in a cave? Hell, they don’t even let him have a name. He’s just “The Grinch.” They’re doing the equivalent of calling the one member of a minority group in town “The Black” or “The Jew.”

    Whos are terrible people. They deserved to have their Christmas stolen.

          It’s true that a Grinch could be a kind of Who, but considering how different Whos look compared to this Grinch and the famous green one, there’s no reason to think they are.

            Humans of different races can look pretty different from one another and only a problematic few would have trouble thinking we’re the same species.
