They're referring to this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_and_expulsion_of_Germ...

I.e. the allies forcing germans in the east to go west and leave the nazi colonial project behind. It was arguably atrocious. It is also irrelevant since the territories involved reside within the EU and there is nothing in the way for these people or their descendants relocating back to Poland or whatever.

Which I suspect will be quite popular in the future, given that Poland's economy is doing rather well and Germany's is likely to not do rather well.

not colonial project, but 12m ethnic germans that lived in german territories that were annexed or in other areas in europe (because they lived there for centuries).

>>>

During the later stages of World War II and the post-war period, Reichsdeutsche (German citizens) and Volksdeutsche (ethnic Germans living outside the Nazi state) fled and were expelled from various Eastern and Central European countries, including Czechoslovakia, and from the former German provinces of Lower and Upper Silesia, East Prussia, and the eastern parts of Brandenburg (Neumark) and Pomerania (Farther Pomerania), which were annexed by Provisional Government of National Unity of Poland and by the Soviet Union.

will you support them marching back to reclaim their lands and homes, while been peacefully armed (like palestinians) with molotov cocktails, ak47 and grenades ? do you support their right of return ?

[cess11]

No one is stopping them from returning, it's within the EU, they have full freedom of movement.

[tguvot]

"right of return" is not about freedom of movement. it's about regaining possession over land, houses and other properties. something that current poland government is very against.

so, do you support right of return for 12m of germans and there descendants, restoration of their property rights and dismantling of colonial polish state on occupied lands ?

Do you?
