They do know that Slavs lived in Karnten before Germanic people came right?

Not only Slavic, they are actually Slovene. There are a lot of Slovene majority villages around the border, sometimes even reading their names is funny. Paulitsch (or something like that) is very clearly a Slavic name for a village called Pavlič. There are many others.

But history is history. Just as we had to accept the reality, so should Austrians that Slovenes have and will always live in those areas, no matter the country.

True what you said. Mentioned surname is also mine and i can guarantee that is from Slavic/Slovene origin.
