A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

tooth fairy (lemmy.ml)

When I was a child I had a revelation; if Santa isn't real then the tooth fairy also isn't real. Then growing up, if the moon landing isn't real then nothing (of the same kind ) we are told is real.

This is such an oversimplification. Both are, honestly. Because your parents lied to you, you now thing anything they say is a lie? And now you're trying to apply the same logic to global society?

Let's not even get into what you consider to be a lie, that's another entire Pandora's box.
