    You say the French surrender easily

    Only people ignorant of history…

    America literally wouldn’t exist without the French backing us as a proxy war.

    And the reason the French surrendered in ww2 was the did most of the ww1 fighting and were caught by surprising. Its like how Nimrod was a mighty hunter for thousands of years, but one joke on a kids cartoon turned it into an insult.

    It wasn’t that the French always surrendered, it was notable because they never surrendered. So no one expected it.
