@Drover Tom This topic really tickles my tism’

Not gonna lie, I do plan on voting in Polish elections in 2019. But that's because, if I don't vote, someone else who doesn't have a stake is gonna vote and they're gonna vote for something worse.

@DixieBoy76 - KY what was that in response to?

@Jacob Not sure I just was being dumb

oh lol

anyway, ideally every country would repeal the right to vote for citizens abroad

Lol there's still people in Germany that have Ostpreussen meetups

@Drover Tom Is that like SOTAR?

A lot of countries don't allow non-resident citizens to vote.

Or SOCV

@Bjorn - MD good

Not us, though... 😑

I just don’t want the Prussian phenotype to go extinct guys 😢

my first act as president would be revoking my own right to vote <:galaxybrain:366743669484683264>

@DixieBoy76 - KY its just a bunch of old people who were born in east prussia before it was lost and had to leave lmao

@DixieBoy76 - KY Same, though I'm insufficiently versed in the subject to know if Prussians actually constitute a phenotype unto themselves, lol. Definitely don't want to see the language go extinct, though.

My grandma actually moved into a house that was formerly inhabited my Germans and they left a painting or something behind. Still has it.

There's not really a phenotype for it, cuz thats mine above

When I inherit it I should give it "back" to one of you guys and complete the cycle

I'll just give it to someone else

I wonder if we actually have anyone here who had German family that was kicked out after WWII

@Jacob Was *this* the painting? 😏

that would be spooky

@Jacob I’ll keep it if you give it to me

Lol

I think they'd all be in South America @Jacob

Giving it to a Prussian descended IE member once I inherit it so they can pass it down to there children might actually be the right thing to do

The family that used to own it probably got kicked out and had to pack fast

Most just moved into Mecklenburg Vorpommern

@Jacob I can provide the birth records as proof if you need them lol.

@Jacob That'd be pretty awesome if you could pull that off. Good juju.

Just because I think the land should be Polish now doesn't mean I don't sympathize with Germans would happened to be born on the other side of the battle field

It blows my mind how I’m nearly perfectly half British and half German.

Every one of my DNA tests confirmed that

What if half of my body looked English and half German like split down the middle

lmao

So you mean, like, what if half of your body looked Saxon, and the other one looked... Saxon, lol?

There's already a non-profit organization for people who were kicked out of East Prussia after WWII

dude imagine if I tracked down the original family who owned it
