I am distressed by the lack of Discourse surrounding my least favorite christmas movie plothole, which is that there are too many movies which not only feature but CENTER UPON the concept that santa claus is real but none of the adults believe in him. this is an INHERENTLY FLAWED CONCEPT. where do they think the presents come from??? this is a world in which adults tell children about santa, knowing full well that they are lying, but then presents show up under the tree from santa and they’re fine with it???
when I was younger my theory was that santa brought the presents and then like, used magic to make the parents believe they’re the ones who bought the presents, but this comes with its own plotholes: does santa memory-wipe all the parents in the world? does he remove the money from their bank accounts? this raises more questions than answers
this question has haunted me my entire life and I don’t understand how christmas movies get away with it year after year.
