Just a casual reminder that the sources given in this post are total garbage, and OP lacks any nuance at all. There’s in fact significant evidence of syncretism between pagan Yule and Christian Christmas

Annual reminder that:

Christmas trees were not "stolen" from pagans.

Christians didn't "steal" Sol Invictus.

They didn't "steal" Saturnalia, either.

Santa Claus was not based on Odin.

The trouble with claims that various elements of Christmas were "stolen" from pagans is that it vastly oversimplifies and overlooks huge amounts of history.

Furthermore, the whole thing is tied in with conspiracism, both from Christians and pagans. Christian conspiracy theorists cite it as evidence that Satan is lurking everywhere; pagan conspiracy theorists tend to incorporate it into the TERF-y belief that Christianity was part of a conspiracy to suppress the Divine Feminine. So yeah, always be a bit cautious anytime you hear somebody claiming something was "stolen" from pagans - try and find out what modern scholars have to say on the matter.
