This will never fly in the US.
These "Christkind" activists would be banned from public schools and castigated for their religious "intolerance".
At best, they'd be maligned as "religious bigots", "judgmental", or, horror of horrors -
"homophobic" (I'll bet they are against homosexual marriage for sure!).
At worst, they might be arrested for committing "hate crimes".

"Santa Claus"--with the red suit with fur trim, etc., was invented by cartoonist Thomas Nast, a vicious anti-Catholic. He took the ancient figure of Saint Nicholas and removed all signs that Nicholas was a bishop.

Austrians: they're like Germans, but without the impish sense of fun.
