      Just curious, how did the Germans wind up in those countries that were expelling them?

      TBF a lot of them had been there for a lot longer than just the war. But also being fair their prior presence was used as justification to invade in the same vein as the Russian annexation of Crimea, and plenty of ethnic Germans supported the Nazis.

      The fascist Sudeten German Party was in fact *far more* popular with Sudeten Germans than the regular Nazis were back in the Fatherland - the SdP won a full 88% of Sudeten German votes in the last elections before the German occupation So no I don't feel that bad for them

      The intentional dismemberment of the Austro-Hungarian empire was a huge problem. The 1920s was a time of enormous chaos in the East. It isn't surprising that people who lived in this world retreated back into ethnic identity.

      It doesn't have to be surprising to have deserved consequences

      So voting for the wrong party is grounds for being removed from your home? Do I read you rightly? I'm just curious, does this apply in our own time? Would you support doing the same thing to Trump voters, for instance?

      The shooting war hasn't started yet but in our last civil war, much future harm could've been avoided had former Confederates been disenfranchised and expropriated, yes

      That's what a war is Losing a war has to have consequences Otherwise, you didn't actually win the war, and that means, in fact, that the war didn't actually end

      This argument, prior to 1918 and really 1945 would have been considered unconscionable. Peace almost always came with amnesty in order to ensure that you actually got peace! This moderate view makes war less savage.

      This is nonsense By the standards of any civil war, either ancient or modern, the end of the American Civil War was ABSURDLY lenient to the Confederates At the very least, it was normal to expect the actual leaders of a rebel government to be hanged for treason

      For basically NO ONE in the Confederate hierarchy at ANY level to permanently lose life, liberty or even property makes a mockery of the idea that the Union actually won the war at all They even gave them back their right to vote!

          I was raised on the idea of threadbare aristocrats, with the "good" families beggared by the war. And some of mine was. But in general the folks who ran things before the war ran things after the war. And once Reconstruction was over they settled in to reconstruct slavery.

          Southern Gothic was great stuff, and it was about the original sin of slavery that had corrupted the society, but Faulkner, Tennessee, and them also sold the threadbare aristocrat trope.

          Lincoln's death didn't help, but it was the Hayes-Tilden election that was the real coffin nail
