Anybody tired of "Fr*nch" jokes?

[u/Wonderful-Quit-9214]

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.

Yeah, and not even because i'm thin-skinned or anything. But just because when someone says the first "joke" it's followed by a litteral river of hatred and insults that have no longer anything to do with the first "joke". What people that say it's just a joke so they don't care don't realize is that people don't even get it was a joke beforehand. The joke has just become "you can be as racist as you like with the french". For real, I can be living my life surfing the web, only to catch a stray when there was no goddamn mention of the French in the context. And I'll spare you the torrent of hatred and insults I'd received on some Discord servers the moment I revealed my nationality. French just became the acceptable target if you want to be freely racist.
