>>11052919Well, those people wanted to become german, those are the numbers from official records.
No idea what number you refer to but if it's congruent, this is just how it was.
You might check out the jewish emancipation era and how scared rabbis were yet again to lose control over their precious first goylem.
Or why circumcision was pilpuled to be mandated through christian legal framework and what reform movements were there, that just wanted to assimilate as the plebs that they were.
Which was not okay with all the not plebs.
A lot of those people felt more german, thanks to the era of burning nationalism, than anything else and those are around the numbers.
In no way did I implicate anything opposing your other statements, so nothing to say to that.
