why do people hate france

[chip5548]

I think its more of this. Think of the world as a elementary school yard, the UN as a clique, and a big bully comes in, the clique says "WE WILL NOT LET YOU DO THIS!" the bully walks up and punches France, France gets scared and says "Ill give you all my money, just dont hurt me any more!!! and the swiss are the kid who sits in the corner watching the whole thing haha

I just hear this stuff on Top Gear from James May. He hates France hahahaha

[kommisar]

It's mostly because of the whole history of their military victories (none after napoleon died hehu) and because the higher class often has an incredibly egoist snotty attitude.


but most people in france otherwise are chill as fuc so...


Semblerait-il que les stéréotypes français sont basés sur la nourriture? En effet. J'entends maintes fois les gens commenter sur la France et leurs baguettes, escargots, fromage, pattes de grenouilles, vin rouge, chichi frou frou hon hon hon vive la résistance etc. C'est dommage, puisque c'est grâce à la France que plusieurs avancements dans le domaine de la restauration on été acquises.

There are probably more stuck up people in LA and NYC than Paris. (per capita)

... Je ne sais pas vraiment quoi dire à propos de ce sujet. Très sincèrement, j'ai fait un échange étudiant il y a 2 ans en France avec un adolescent résidant tout près de la ville de Nantes. Je crois ne jamais avoir déjà croisé autant de gens sympathiques et surtout absolument hilarants d'affilée. Peut-être serais-je donc un extraterrestre puisque j'aime bien ce pays, mais, que voulez-vous, il y a des choses que seul le racisme peut expliquer.

Translation:

... What I do not know what they say on the subject. Honestly, I was an exchange student in France was a teenager living 2 years ago near the city of Nantes. Never thought I met so many friendly people and above all completely ridiculous in a row. You may need a foreigner in this country that I love, but what you want, there can only explain racism.

Please for give mine pour Anglish

This is a typical English attitude that's not really based on anything.


Also I'm jealous of you, Mario. :P

I translated it the best I could so that you could understand! :3

Also, to close the subject, France isn't that bad, really, actually, it's quite enjoyable. It's the kind of place you easily get attached to.

This thread is still going? Alright then, I'll end it:

People are pretentious and uneducated, so they make judgments based on hear-say and invented stereotypes. There is nothing else to be said on the matter.

[ninjaKIWI]

I don't like France because I can't stand the language ~_~ Most garbage language ever.

And everyone says it smells like piss there anyways.

People from other countries are always going to hate eachother for their own, or other people's stupid reasons( like the idiotic post above). It's like a cycle almost.

[ninjaKIWI]

The piss line was a joke (Obviously), and I genuinely can't stand listening to the French language. What's idiotic about that?

Good job saying the whole world, including you, are pretentious and uneducated. Everyone in this thread, and outside of it, will always make judgements first based on something they've heard INSTEAD of an actual and decent reason or after knowing a third people, in this case one that fits a stereotype.


tl;dr ver: People will always judge the book by the damn cover.

Since you seem to have little reading comprehension, I'll restate it for you:

Many in the world are uneducated and pretentious, and so they make judgments based on conjecture that has trickled down the grape vine.

It is true that it is hard to make a proper objective judgment without at least some basic assumptions. However, one who is educated will have prior knowledge rather than presumption, and one who understands the difference between being educated on a subject and being ignorant will do their best to attain the knowledge necessary to pass judgment.

And that is not what I said at all. The term "people" is not all-inclusive, at least not in the way I used it. It may be used to describe "the general populace", as I have used it, or a specific demographic. In either case, I most certainly did not implicate myself, nor did I imply that this was the case for everybody.

Learn how to construct an argument (and spell, and use grammar) before you tangle with me. Otherwise you expose yourself as a tool. I suggest you shut the fuck up when grown folks is talkin', rather than working harder to prove my point.

[WTFBrandon]

People will be people.
Some people just hate other people for no reason, just because they can, or don't like they way they look/do something.
For example, I know a lot of American's trash talk Canadian's on Xboxlive because they are Canadian, and the other way around.
I've also noticed a lot of people from UK, and Europe in general will call me American and fat when i'm playing CoD, so it shows they have hate for America for no reason.. Because when I ask they just call me fat again, lol.

[kommisar]

french language is both romantic and dirty as hell.


England, from experience, has the largest amount of dipshit elitist assholes in the world

but it's not fair to say that because I know an even amount of coul ppl there so it could pass off as insulting

[bam13]

French women are pretty hot though.

I play tennis and I take this video very offensively.

It's part of the reason why I dislike the French.
