Does anyone else think that its odd how the MSM tried to turn American opinion against the French since 9/11. I remember articles about renaming french toast and french frys to freedom frees. I remember reading about wanting to return the Statue of Liberty. I almost feel like the narrative has been trying to sow hatred amongs people for a long time. Realistically, the French have been a good ally to us for 250 years.

I think its odd how often they surrender. They deserve the stigma in my opinion.
....however they are stubborn as shit and we need "stubborn as shit" people on our side right now.
Please separate the people from the government. The French people formed a resistance during WW2 to do what their government would not. The French people continue to be skilled in resistance, unfortunately it is their own government they must resist now.
They have been seen to surrender to outsiders, but these are the same people who beheaded their own during the French Revolution on a grand scale AND turned it into a form of mass entertainment. It's possible that Macron is unwittingly courting his own end, and I don't mean getting voted out.
Do you know what stigma means?
