something else to bribe children into being good for a month , so they can get presents from another watcher that is meant to be keeping a list anyway
>tl;dr marketing bullshit to sell more shit
it hurts me to see my siblings blatantly and repeatedly lie to their children about some fat dude that is going to magically give them presents; and i'm the outcast for trying to tell them it is wrong to lie to them , especially when it is 'only' peace and quiet they seek. (stop hitting your brother or i'll tell santa and you won't get any presents, or you better hope the elf on the shelf didn't see that or he'll tell santa and you'll get no presents , which in itself is several compounding lies and empty threats)
damage done at that point (loss of faith/trust in parents, teachers, society, humanity, etc etc etc)
>Those you trust the most
agreed , not my place
>wouldn't be fair to them
not sure i agree , might teach them early that everybody lies about everything. short term pain for long term gain, but again, not my place
are you ok with MSM 'fiction'?
what is the difference?
the difference is this 'fiction' is coming from the only people in their lives that they trust completely. as some (most) do the MSM it must be said.
see the parallels here?
someone has to break the cycle
