It was a long time before that this happened. The german language die-out was mostly during ww1. My family stopped speaking German during ww1 to avoid being lynched (even though my great great grandfather was in the damned war) and they also had to anglicize our surname to an abomination in order to not be discriminated against... though it didnt help, because my surname is still incredibly and unmistakably german, just spelled all fucked up.

Though, I will say, I have another great grandfather who was in the division totenkopf during the war. He ended up in america in the 50s, but never taught my grandmother a solitary lick of German because he didn't want himself or her to be targeted. So the discrimination was still *there*, but it was a lot less pronounced than during the first world War. Probably because germans had mostly stopped immigrating to America, and most german Americans were crypto germans who had little connection with anything german because of aforementioned reasons.

But germans, on the other hand, have always treated german Americans extremely warmly and they still do (provided you know what your talking about, and your surname is german, double points if you speak german). When I was in Germany, everyone loved to hear that my family was from there and I made several friends that I still talk to originally stemming from this alone. It felt like a big welcome home party whenever I went somewhere and had a conversation with someone. Old man bought me a round of beers because my great grandfather was waffen ss.

Furthermore, I consider that Israel must be destroyed
