What if Santa Claus isn’t just a fun holiday myth—but a behavioral training system disguised as cheer?
In this symbolic breakdown, we explore:
How belief is implanted early through emotional ritual
The overlap between obedience, surveillance, and gifts
Why childhood myths are harder to untangle than adult delusions
And how cultural systems teach us to confuse rewards with love
This is not a takedown of Christmas.It’s a look at how myths get metabolized into control.
Country Crocked is a podcast about belief, culture, addiction, and collapse—cooked slow, served symbolically.
