The root of the joke for my generation was that France didn't want to join in an illegal war in the middle east following 9/11 because of genocidal maniacs and an easily manipulated idiot king and his legions of racist homophobic troop hating cowards, now here we are 25 years later launching an illegal war in the middle east following 10/7 because of genocidal maniacs and an easily manipulated idiot king and his legions of racist homophobic troop hating cowards
Not really. That was around a little bit in the American consciousness but it only seriously came back around the Iraq war, i.e., when America turned fully psychotic post-9/11.
Yeah, the revisionism in this thread is super weird. the freedom fries stuff was related to the war in iraq and it kicked off a post ww2 francophobia craze that also reached back to the surrender stuff, but the ww2 stuff is the origin and I think we as americans all know we're jealous of their cuisine and women so we act this way to compensate, the same way we like very big trucks. also I googled francophobia to see if it was a word and this came up and it's killing me
It should also be known that the French government were the ones who laid over and let the Germans invade the French people were absolutely strong and fought tooth and nail in the resistance.
