One of the biggest pitfalls of common discourse is allowing people who want you dead to define the argument. Thomas Sowell became prominent because he did not let the trappings of political arguments be the only possible answers. Stop using the term white, I’m Slavic, Germanic, and Nordic. This means me and people from the Mediterranean have fuck all in common but we are still classified the same. As an American I have nothing in common with Germans, yet I am classified in the same group. Playing by these stupid identity games only gives these quibbling retards validation. Want to discriminate legitimately? Use their culture. We already know that ghetto black culture is shit, we already know that central and South American culture is shit, we already know that Northwestern American culture is shit. The practices a culture implements shows over generations, black American who eat vegetables and don’t down hundreds of grams of sugar a day magically live past 65. Asian families have been growing taller in America thanks to access to real food. A culture defines your genetics tomorrow.

The National Socialists invaded Poland because they wanted to extract as much wealth from races they deemed inferior to them. Poland had Slavs and Jews, both of which the National Socialists wanted to exterminate. There was no [Polish terror campaign against Germans] in Poland until the Leftists showed up invading from the East and the West and started gunning people down.
There was Ukrainian nationalist and Communist terrorism in Poland before the war. Both of these were being countered somewhat heavy handed, like the Bereza political prison camp where people were beaten and abused and the Polish cavalry burning Ukr villages and churches in reprisals (just burning, not massacring). But nothing involving Germans, at least not since 1923 when the Silesian uprisings (of local Poles against Germany, fighting the Freikorps and the German socialist government) ended.
Okay okay! I'll be more nuanced!
If you want a horror story, go check out what the Ukrainian nationalists then did in 1943. Actually lost distant family members during these events, and I mean entire families with entire villages.
TBH, I have no references to that.
Blame my western American history bias.

As it mentions other minorities being oppressed (but with no violence because they did not engage in terorrism) were Belarusians and Jews. The former being Polonized and the others marginalized, while at the same time Zionists were being sponsored as to make the Jewish problem go away via emigration - and this actually involved Polish secret services covertly training the right-wing Jewish Zionist terrorists for a planned uprising in Palestine. Not much of this came to a fruit as most of them then died in the war but one who survived was Begin who was then allowed to desert when the 2nd Corps passed by when going from the Soviet camps and prisons to the Africa/Italy theater of war. He later became an Israeli president and a Peace Nobel laureate.
The entire story of the 2nd Corps is fascinating, you might check it out. It's leader General Anders being "the Polish Moses".
Hmmmm. Interesting.
