NGL the USA becoming a French Colony would fix 90% of the political issues currently plaguing it.

[–] tempest@lemmy.ca 4 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Eh, it would probably end up like Haiti

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

Comparatively, check out how the US handled Bikini Atoll and Puerto Rico

France demands a mineral deal and a thank you

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago

The US should be more thankful. And should wear a suit

How considerate to have a guy in the corner translating to Italian.

Start with musk's fortune and go down the wealthiest Americans list.

Unfortunately, this didn't really happen

Thanks for this. We need a way of flagging satire or misinformation more clearly. I don’t think it’s enough to have it buried in the comment sections.

I would say it's obvious satire but then i remembered the reality we live in

[–] trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Personally I take everything here very seriously as the community is clearly called credibledefense

[–] FarraigePlaisteach@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

That doesn’t mean anything to me.

It may be satire, but it could absolutely be real life. France is kinda lame and French people kinda suck.

Edit: if i had said the same thing about America, all you (lemmy users) Americans would all be like "yeah fuck smerica!" And I'd have up votes. But this is the leftist shithole called lemmy

[–] FarraigePlaisteach@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago

Nothing lame about calling in a big loan !

[–] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago

Maybe we should put these types of posts into a community and say that it's non-credible in the name.

[–] xye@lemm.ee 22 points 2 days ago

Well. Seeing as this is NCD…

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

it should though. everyone should go hard on these parasites. fascists always get a free ride from all the authorities. that's how they get into power. they never suffer consequences, because all the consequences are fake and designed to stop people from being too free or too communist, both of which fascists also work to stop, so the nation's enforcement mechanisms see them as friends and go really ridiculously easy on them.

france needs to nail america's dick to the wall, and declare that no more american goods will be coming into france until these scum pay their debts. maybe even give a 'we brought you into this world, and we can damn sure take you out of it.'

Your history lesson seems to forget America helping France, both financially and strategically, during and after WW2. I dislike the US position right now, but to suggest they've somehow been freeloading is patently false, and the rest of the world, Europe in particular, has relied heavily on the US since the end of WW2.

[–] SwingingTheLamp@midwest.social 38 points 2 days ago (2 children)
[–] iknowitwheniseeit@lemmynsfw.com 34 points 2 days ago

It only took Haiti 122 years to pay off the French.

Liberte, egalite, fraternite. 😑

Sorry, that deal was made with the French royal family, not the republic. It's null and void.

[–] smac@sopuli.xyz 8 points 2 days ago

It doesn't matter. The debt was repaid in 1795 by James Swan, a banker who assumed the debt from the U.S.

I don't think France would want to open up the indemnity/ reparations conversation...

[–] Alloi@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

i mean they did give us democracy, existentialism, and the blow job.....

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

...menage à trois.....soixante-neuf....

But aside from those, what have the French done for us?

[–] Spider2013@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Baguette, croissant, macarron

[–] El_Scapacabra@lemm.ee 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Yes, yes, but other than that, what have the French really ever done for us?

[–] Spaniard@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (3 children)

Napoleonic law, the metric system, pasteurization
