Most people outside of America won’t get it. It’s the Easter bunny. It’s another lie and I don’t understand why we had to invent this character.

Rundgren’s remark treats the Easter Bunny as a culturally specific American myth—an invented figure used to package a holiday into a child-friendly story. By calling it “another lie,” he frames such traditions as socially sanctioned fictions that adults pass along without fully justifying them, and he questions the need to create intermediary characters to motivate behavior or belief. The aside that “most people outside of America won’t get it” highlights how quickly “normal” customs become strange when viewed cross-culturally, suggesting that many rituals are less universal truths than local narratives. The quote reads as skeptical, secular, and anti-sentimental about manufactured folklore.
