    It’s not the laughing about France that gets me, it’s the over-generalization about all French people from a few encounters with shitty people. Every country has people like that.

    Yet all I see is hate, probably a result of gullible people guzzling propaganda from the US after France refused to help in the 2003 Iraq war.

          If you think the stereotype of French haughtiness doesn’t predate 2003, I don’t know what to tell you.

          Using the ‘uneducated American’ stereotype doesn’t really help your case. At all.
