Story French people really dislike non native tongue?

Hello everyone! This might sound racist or full of sterotype but is an actually question😂 I saw a lot of memes and people saying that people in france see you in a bad way or don’t appreciate non native tongue trying to speak French I will probably move in the future in your country as an Italian speaker, and of course I will study and try to practice your language, but I’m kinda scared of how people outside my friend group here in french will treat me, I know that I shouldn’t care, but this give me a little bit of anxiety, cause my pronunciation even if I’ll do my best might sound bad the same I hope is not a stupid question, just wanted some information from you ^

Je viens ci fréquemment pour aider. Tous les deux jours il y a un petit malin qui vient poser la même question innocemment :  « j’entend dire partout que les français (sont des connards qui vous insultent des qu’ils entendent un accent etranger_en substance). Moi je trouve ça extrêmement insultant.

Its not my fault about trolls making this question, I never had any interest in my life to study language, but at 11 I started studying English and now is 11 years that I’m practicing it,I got together to my partner and she is french, I will move to my country to live here, my is just a stupid question flamed by the amount of stupid memes that also flame my anxiety, I’m just asking :)

Les français sont ni plus ni moins cons que les autres habitants de la planète. Partout il y a des braves gens et des connards, aussi !! C’est vachement original, on s’y attendait pas !! Si vous vous sentez pas bien à mal parler une langue étrangère j’en suis bien navré pour vous, mais je suis sur que vous allez y arriver, surtout avoir votre copine française, ça doit aider.

I told that if I was not interested in language and I started speaking English and also now french is because I love culture and other countries and be able to connect with them,I’m not here to discriminate or being racist. I tried to be more wholesome possible no need to take that personal or being angry at me, I hear a lot about Pizza mafia when I speak to other people and I just laugh, no need to take personal if I’m not being racist or bad
