Alternatively, we could stop lying to our kids from a young age. When you think about it, it's just normalizing the act of lying, which is kinda fucked up
Honestly I never even thought about the lying aspect, I grew to dislike the concept since it's teaching kids that an old man is spying on them all the time.
You can't surely be comparing Santa Claus to our Lord and Savior, one is a magical figure that judges us by seeing everything we do and promises reward or retribution.

the south pole actually has land under the ice so he'd have to move from north to south I guess

They'll probably at least try since they see bigger chances to win compared to the polar bears that they had to face previously

I hear Finland has pretty good views of the Northern Lights. Or Canada, since one of his mailing addresses is there.

True, but you get the same thing with religion. And unfortunately it conditions people to be comfortable with mass surveillance
robocall@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 248d
I hate the whole idea of Santa
DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works · 15 pts · 248d
I actually think it's a great way to teach kids why religions are lies lol
Also make you start doubting every authority figure
At least that's the case for me.

To be honest I'm not super comfortable with it either. It's something I grew up with but in hindsight it doesn't really make any sense to me.

He will live on in our memories and in our hearts.

They probably won't be gone completely and it will take thousands of years, so for a while every version of Santa is good.
