Did Poles living in Germany support Hitler's rise to power before World War II?

....I doubt they were "polish" stamps then, Lyzko! ;)

...because Poles in Germany were not Germans but foreign implants. My point exactly...

This time it's about Poles from the so-called General Govern.

@Novichok
Poles from the areas incorporated into the Reich were resettled or slowly liquidated.

....probably the same reason why the inhabitants of the former german territories weren't recruited for the polish army?

After World War II they were recruited if they had Polish citizenship.

I am trying to define "Pole" vs "German". To me, what matters is in your head, not citizenship, and how fluent you (editorial) are in the local language.

Hitler was smart to make this distinction, as opposed to the current crop of Western idiots - especially the Brits. To them, every damn foreigner is a Brit - even if he hates their country.

BB talking to americans about it is like talking to a todler they just don't get it! I feel that way, not only that but they don't care about facts, they use it as proxy for their obssesions..

There is a simple test that separates implants from tribesmen.

No, we don't need a war for it. All we need is a soccer match. Which side are you on? Polish team or German?

It's really that simple. If you are a Pole living in Germany, citizenship and all, and you are rooting for the Poles and against the Germans, you are not a German - even if you wrote a dozen books in German and love Wagner.

Well, B.B., on the right side was Polish writing alongside the original German name of the port city of present-day Gdansk,

@Lyzko
Maybe they were stamps from the Free City of Danzig under joint Polish-German administration.

Most assuredly!
My background info. was faulty.

Silesians in Opole region, Masurians in East Prussia were not foreing implants - their ancestors lived in their respective areas for centuries and they retained their language (one can argue if it was actually Polish in case of Silesians) in spite of the pressure for germanization since at least the middle of 18th century

Generally Poles in Germany and Germans in Poland are not foreign implants...

What a change of mind, don't you have a high fever?

you are all so narrow minded, depends on a context.

@Ironside
Ok I understood. 👍
