How do you get through to people like my dad who thinks because our family only immigrated to North America due to the Holocaust, that he shouldn't have to give the land back?
Legitimately don't think it will be possible. It's a material interests thing. There's no way you could ever convince even a sizable fraction of the tens of millions of people who own land in the United States to give it back, no matter how just the reasons.
Persecution does not give your dad the right to steal other people's land, it is a fundamental reality at the core of all settler states is based on the theft of others' land. He probably won't care, but it's still true
I keep seeing people saying this but no one is saying what they would do this persons dad if they had power. He's not leaving on his own, so what are you going to do?

He's getting put into a cannon and launched into a tiny cup of water
Are you saying we need to ship him back to Germany?
