Man, all these Christians are not even questioning it. Like are they seriously so stupid or just pretending that all this junk sold for Christmas has anything to do with their religion?

I don't know what the Christians think about it.
Things like these are rather tied to the national industry that generates its income with those products.
It's even worse when Easter looms. Barely as the Father Christmas made of chocolate have vanished from the shelves, Easter bunnies already check out the situation if they can show up. The earlier the Easter holidays fall into the year, the earlier this happens then. It's almost like "change of shift".

Oh, sure, non stop production. They got those damn bunnies to Russia too although there was never such a tradition but who cares? Great business, generates profit. You can assume that Christians like it otherwise it would not be profitable and they would not produce it.

I'd rather see it that, as long as possible profit looms on the horizon, Christians forget about anything of their rules.
Saying, I don't know if those factory owners or their local managers even have anything to do with the Christian belief, but, as most of those means of production have been gathered in the hands of enterprises well-established under West German rule after the war, there is indeed good probability that they even are Christians. You know, only in East Germany you could say it with certainty that they don't care about the Christian belief because it's so common on that ground.
But most of the valuables once owned and maintained in the East got sold off to the West, you can't really say they got much to say in that business still...
