Public schools are hubs for moral decay. Violent riots on college campuses have become the norm. Media outlets push propaganda instead of facts, and television churns out trashier content with each passing year.<\/p>\n<p>But perhaps the most glaring example of this cultural decay is in Hollywood. For years, woke filmmakers have been lecturing Americans on what to believe while actively tearing down traditional values.<\/p>\n<p>And what do they hate most? Christmas. Hollywood has had it out for this sacred holiday for decades, portraying it as outdated, exclusionary, and in need of a progressive makeover.<\/p>\n<p>But their latest Christmas-themed movie might take the fruitcake.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">From The Blaze:<br \/>\nIt\u2019s the Christmas season, and with it comes new Christmas movies. One of those supposedly kid-friendly films is called \u201cDear Santa\u201d \u2014 which stars Jack Black as Satan\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">In the film, his character is summoned by a dyslexic 6th-grader named Liam who had accidentally written \u201cSatan\u201d instead of \u201cSanta\u201d on a letter. Satan then attempts to get Liam to sell his soul for a few granted wishes. Liam then mistakes Satan for the actual Santa Claus and is told that any three wishes he wants will be granted \u2014 but the cost is spending eternity in hell.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>A Satanic Plot for the Holidays<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><em>Dear Santa<\/em> tells the story of a dyslexic six-year-old named Liam who accidentally writes a letter to \u201cSatan\u201d instead of \u201cSanta.\u201d Predictably, chaos ensues.<\/div>\n<p>Satan, played by Jack Black, seizes the opportunity to con the boy into trading his soul for three wishes. Liam, clueless about the identity of his newfound \u201cfriend,\u201d believes Satan is Santa and goes along with the deal.<\/p>\n<p>One wish later, and Satan resurrects Liam\u2019s brother. Cue the moral messaging: the film bizarrely portrays Satan as a figure capable of \u201coccasional goodwill.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hollywood isn\u2019t even trying to hide its disdain for traditional Christmas values anymore. The most disturbing line in the film? The child declares, \u201cMeeting Satan may have been the best thing that ever happened to me.\u201d That\u2019s not holiday cheer\u2014that\u2019s a warped, dangerous message being peddled to children.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>A Sick Obsession With Darkness<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Conservative commentator Allie Beth Stuckey didn\u2019t mince words about this debacle. \u201cWhat is it about children and demonic ideologies and witchcraft that so many progressives and Hollywood seem to love?\u201d she asked.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s a fair question. For years, Hollywood has been obsessed with injecting dark, anti-moral themes into kid-friendly content. Whether it\u2019s witchcraft, occult symbolism, or now Satan himself, the entertainment industry seems fixated on tearing down innocence.<\/p>\n<p>Stuckey warns that Dear Santa\u2019s message is dangerous, especially for young viewers. By presenting Satan as someone with a shred of goodwill, the film risks normalizing dangerous ideas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a horrifying message,\u201d she said. \u201cYou should not even allow your teenagers to watch something like this. It would get them excited about trying to communicate with Satan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s not wrong. The idea of portraying demonic forces as misunderstood or even helpful figures is a slippery slope, especially for impressionable minds.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Hollywood\u2019s War on Values<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s no surprise that Jack Black, a staunch progressive and Kamala Harris supporter, would sign onto a project like this. For years, Hollywood elites like him have been dismantling traditional values under the guise of \u201centertainment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Christmas, with its message of joy, faith, and family, is a natural target. The film\u2019s subtext feels all too familiar: undermine traditional morality and replace it with relativism.<\/p>\n<p>But <em>Dear Santa<\/em> isn\u2019t just anti-Christmas\u2014it\u2019s anti-decency. When a movie designed for families portrays Satan as someone worth trusting, we\u2019re not talking about creative storytelling. We\u2019re talking about cultural sabotage.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>A Dangerous Message for Children<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Critics of the film, like Stuckey, are right to point out the risks of marketing such themes to children. At its core, Dear Santa sends a message that it\u2019s okay to flirt with darkness.<\/p>\n<p>It glamorizes the idea of making deals with the devil while downplaying the moral consequences. Sure, the movie may try to wrap itself in humor and holiday charm, but the underlying message is clear\u2014and deeply troubling.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Why This Matters<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This isn\u2019t just about one movie. It\u2019s about a broader cultural shift. Hollywood\u2019s obsession with eroding values and pushing woke ideology isn\u2019t new, but Dear Santa feels like a tipping point.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s proof that no tradition, no matter how sacred, is off-limits in the name of \u201cprogressive storytelling.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Americans must ask themselves: Is this the kind of content we want shaping our children? Do we really want an industry that can\u2019t even respect Christmas to be our moral compass?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Key Takeaways:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Dear Santa<\/em> stars Jack Black as Satan, twisting Christmas into something unrecognizable.<\/li>\n<li>The film is dangerous for children.
