We haven't even put up Halloween decorations yet.

(of course, there was one guy a couple streets over who started putting up his giant skeletons the last week of Sept. And the grocery stores had candy displays in mid-Sept.)

Honestly, I side-eye anyone putting their Christmas stuff up before Thanksgiving.
as a christian i put no pagan symbols like that in my house.

xmas = midwinterfest
xmastree = altar for wodan.. with the decorations representing the food placed in them as offering to this pagan god.
and we have no santaclaus in netherlands he does not belomg to our version of christmas. but he points back to nimrod depicted as a man with a long white beard and a pinetree in hand.. wodan, odin etc are all derriced from that first idol we must cast down.

and even before I was a christian in my nation we celebrate sinterklaas at 5 december. thats when you get gifts christmas should even for non believer stay far away from getting and buying crap.
and no christmas decorations allowed here before 6 december until than it is sinterklaasdecorations.
ofcourse being christian i no longer celebrate sinterklaas either but still at least it belongs to my nations cultural herritage santaclaus halloween and that foreign crap needs to stay out double as much.

I noticed that every year the streets are decorated with Christmas trees earlier and earlier. (This is in Russia)
There are no decorated Christmas trees on the streets yet, but I am sure they will appear soon.

Personally, I like it. The feeling of a holiday gives optimism and life becomes more fun.

If i ever believed in that now largely religious affair i wouldn't put them up for another month and a half. Far too early to put them up as it is.

Don't you mean, "now largely consumer affair"? Capitalism/materialism took it over ages ago.

I prefer Paganism over anything that came from Abrahamic faiths.
