    This. Im not french, and while the surrender jokes can be slightly amusing at times, i feel a great sense of pride(?) everytime i see on the news that theyre protesting some new tyranny. Wish my lot were like that. Alas, we not only get trampled by the boot but kiss it as it passes by

      Eh, the surrendering jokes are only because they’ve legitimately won more wars in history than any other European nation. Dunno if China or one of their neighbors might have the French beat. The French don’t care they have their baguette and coffee.
