Why Americans hate French?

[perfect_fat]

im sorry..i just dont get your point perfect fat.
and that canadian thing...are you referring to french canadians

here let me explain this whole thread in 2 sentences.


the french have lost many wars and retreat often.
the united states thinks its funny.

its all a joke.


btw has anyone seen that Triumph the dog thing when he goes and bothers french people?

My point that there is no real reason for the US and French to hate each other. Losing half of your military in a war would knock anybody down. Even the nazis didn't lose that many and they lost the war.

The didn't retreat while helping to create America. You should have a little more respect instead of being a judgemental bigot is all I'm saying.

That, and the US didn't save everybodys asses in world war 1.

Honestly, I don't care either way about the French. They don't bother me a bit. Letting...public opinion, as it is, nudge you into disliking an entire nation is ignorance of the highest order. I don't blame them for not helping us in Iraq, hell we had no business over there anyway, aside from Daddy Bush's unfinished business. So, French, be happy; at least one American doesn't give a shit either way.

Edit, I need to check more often to see if there's more than one page for these things.

I once asked why we hate them so much...

I kid you not, my dear buddy told me it was because of the South Park movie.

In retrospect, after watching the movie with him... I agreed. That movie is funny and makes fun of the canadians A LOT.

I myself harbor no hate against them. I have taken french in school for 11 years and counting.

Re: Why Americans hate French?

I just wanted to know why the hell do americans hate the French people? AND DON'T SAY YOU SAVED THEIR ASSES DURING WW2!!!!!!! Your president sent you to war because if the Russians would of reconquer all of Europe, they would have a whole continent for them.
I would of made a list but there are 2 much prejudice going on. Just think about it and i'm sure you'll see there isn't so much reasons you hate them....

possibly because french people hate everyone and everything, and signs saying "Bush is a nerd" all over the place?

Erm sorry.....

ignorance is,... well,... ignorance...

[jewpinthethird]

The French are elitists.

Americans are elitists too. They clash.

But who can stay mad at the french after they hear "Around the World" by Daft Punk? No one. And if you stay mad, it isnt france's fault, it is your own fault for questioning your sexuality too much because you are listening to Daft Punk.

It's simply a human mistake.

People say America because when we refer to the citizens of The United States of America, it's easier to say "americans" than the citizens of the United States of America.

And you'd think americans would be living in a country called America, wouldn't you?

Don't have a tantrum.

[TheTypist]

We Americans use the exuse of the fact that the French government refused to help us in the war to hate the French people.

Then, we go and boycott all products that sound French, including American ones. Do you know how many American products use French words to make them sound more fancy? We hurt our own economy, and hurt the American dollar.

We target the people with French heritage, discriminating against them for what another country did across a whole ocean. These people, and even the vast majority of the French did not have anything to do with the decision. We then miss out on their culture.

And otherwise, we have thousands upon thousands of Americans who are not French, hollering "PEACE!!" and refusing to support the decision this country has made, therefore dividing the nation, lowering the morale of our troops, and making this whole deal last so much longer.

hmm...

WHAT!!??!! You fucking ignorant bastard.
1) I have never seen any French act like they are better then Americans.
2) It's not true, and even if it was, whats wrong with that.
3) I see you have never been to France.
4) Are you talking about the war in Iraq? Ok ..since when its a crime to be peacefull??!!

[Verruckter]

Yeah... Hitler in front of the Effeil Tower... So? I know France has been conquiered during WW2.. I'm not stupid.

[TheTypist]

Some people have no respect for the culture of others.

And you know, just as the U.S. was only partly justified for the war in Iraq, France was only partially justified for refusing.

France can hide behind the whole "peace" deal, but Iraq and had itself deeply entrenched in the French economy. And perhaps there were some under-the-table deals as well.
