Between the unrelenting protests and De Gaulle I’m very glad Germany gets to call France its ally these days
I think we’re running out the possibility that all the cars caught fire at the same time too early!
Sometime im proud of my country
At this point burning cars is just as much part of french culture as the baguette
See?! Who needs a Military when your average population can be so conclusive!
France,
Once upon a time you came to America and helped us defeat a king.
Any chance you can come teach us how to protest? You folks seem to have perfected your technique.
Step 1) Be entitled
Step 2) Have politicians whine that you’re entitled
Step 3) Remind them physically that you’re entitled to be entitled or they’ll be sorry
Step 4) Profit
I feel like there should be a guillotine in there somewhere…
Well, that’s Step 3 in certain dire circumstances; except they end up sorry in hell. Most hope it never gets to that extreme.
Rule!
Hitting the bastards in the pocket is one of the most effective ways of sending a message.
Yes!
Wow, that was an oversight of the Quality Department. Very likely that they allowed non-conforming batteries be installed in those vehicles. Oh well.
Based
I’ve made fun of the French all my life for being smelly cowards, but perhaps we Americans are the smelly cowards.
Sorry France. Clearly you know how to get shit done.
The man speaks truth, perhaps we were lied to so we wouldn’t look too closely at the united powerhouse of their working class
Those folks have been militaristic badasses through history, from sacking Rome, to Jeanne d’Arc, to Napoleon, to the modern French Foreign Legion. But they make one tactical error with the Maginot Line, and everybody calls them “cowards,” SMH.
I’ve never personally burnt a Tesla to the ground, afraid my citizenship may get revoked 🇫🇷
There’s still time 🙏
Tbf they’re only smelly because they have better cheese than we do
We Americans have been propagandized all our lives to look down on the French, even before they whole “freedom fries” dumbfuckery.
We need to show them more respect.
I used to get into arguments about the “cowards” thing. Like yeah, they forfeit a time or two and lost a few fights. So have most countries, whether they let you know about it or not.
They have also been a global super power for at least as long as America has existed, or longer, depending on what you consider to be a super power. So yeah, they brushed up against a couple of rough patches in that time lol
I can tell you that the attitude in Poland is along the lines of “we had a defensive pact, but when we actually got attacked, France just refused to come and help, then promptly surrendered”.
People need to remember that when France came to honor their pact to help Serbia, we all got WWI and Petain wasn’t too keen on doing that again.
Not defending his decision because I don’t think there is anything much more shameful than abandoning an ally being attacked, but it’s important to maybe understand context.Poland has a very significantly better reason to think of France as cowards than America does lmao
They’re also a big part of the reason America won the Revolutionary War in the first place.
A big part
I would argue America wouldn’t exist without Frances aid, at least not in the form that it does now. Whether that was different founding fathers because of lives lost or still being an English colony one can only guess
I think France has won more wars than any other nation in history.
It’s the same with other EU countries, NATO article 5 has been triggered once, after 911. We came to help and lost many soldiers in Afghanistan etc. Now Russia is a major thread to Europe and the US is actively helping Russia.
I know what they meant, but I like the implication that it’s only the first of many to be burned to the ground
The Storming of the Asstille.
That’s the best I can do
Wait was it set on fire or did the Teslas “Just Do That” as they are known to
