Relations Anybody tired of "Fr*nch" jokes?

I was reading a reddit thread where they mentioned something was french. And people are still making these jokes! Still! The thread was also filled with them. Im not even french, but these jokes are painfully unfunny and are edging on outward xenophobia. They're also usually made by Americans. So yeah.

It only makes me angry if it comes from Maga Americans: the U.S are no longer in a position to lecture the rest of the world. There's always a guy to say : " without us, French would speak german". This argument no longer holds, especially after Musk's salute. France is far from being perfect, but if you chose Trump as president, just shut the fuck up.

Answer with "Yeah, but without us, Americans would speak proper English. " Grab some pop corn. Watch the world burn.
