It goes way back to when the Founding Fathers were reading Voltaire and Montesquieu and getting help in the revolution.

I don't know any French people but their posters are bretty based for the most part, unlike krautposters

France is fine but it really does grind my gears that French is seen as some kind of "highbrow" or "fancy" language here, and it infests the attitudes of idiotic artists who want to look cool.

I secretly wish German was the "in thing."

German is good/cool because of all the things that can't make it "highbrow"

You arnt helping the stereotype, my little angry frenchie.
>>
>>72182861
Because France and America are the same.

It's why they love and hate each other.

They're the old world and new world sides of the Freedom coin.

Victims of the same kind of confirmation bias from other nations. They resent accusations of arrogance but revel in their historical greatness. They're protective of their respective cultures, they revere their military. They play up to their own stereotypes for laughs.

You can already see it happening itt.

>Why do Americans like France so much?
kickstarted post-renaissance republican values in europe
aided heavily in the american war of independence (Gibraltar essentially became a naval meatgrinder between brits and french)
that fancy statue
the constant debate of early american parties over which euros to be friends with (federalists liked brits, the other guys like french, the other guys usually won)
at least 80% of americans who fought in the world wars fought on french soil for the majority of their stay
they both were side by side in trying to keep vietnam a colonial territory in the 50's, 60
s and 70's
they are both still military allies to this day and are large trading partners

From what I've heard, it's Parisians who are assholes, French from outside of Paris are supposed to be decent people. And since people a lot of times don't go outside of Paris when they visit France, this is where the stereotype comes from.

Can confirm. I once hung out with two guys from southern France who were huge bros, while a Parisian I worked with was a huge asshole.
>>
>>72185739
the french from lyon and the surrounding area are generally pretty decent folk from my experience
>>
>>72185739
the fact is most Parisians are actually from outside Paris and moved here for work
True born and raised families who've been Parisian for several generations are much less numerous
>>
>>72185730
If they're not loud and fat, would you recognize them as Americans?
>>72185739
NYC =/= the rest of the USA
>>
>>72185777
You Anglo or Quebecois anon? I've heard that the French look down on Quebecois since they view Quebec French as a redneck dialect of French.
>>
>>72185793
So do people become snooty assholes once they move to Paris, or is it only an attitude you acquire if you were born in Paris? The Parisian guy I worked did say he really was from Paris
>>
>>72185810
anglo, and they do in a joking kind of way i imaagine, since the lack of first hand contact between continental frenchies and gaybecois
but yeah, french settlement started and took its roots before Parisian french became universally implemented in france, so they speak a medieval dialect of french that has changed within itself due to cultural isolation
>>
>>72182861
it gos way back
>>
>>72185842
Parisian from a mostly parisian family here. You're not born parisian, you become one.
It's an eternal cycle : redneck provinciaux hâte Paris since they're jelly. Their children need to work so they go to Paris. Their children born in Paris become true Parisians and shit on the Province. A few generations later, they get sick of Paris and move in the Province. Rinse and repeat.
>>
>>72184252
Love you too baby
>>
>>72183985
The antebellum South was the hieght of America dialect in my opinion. What do our European cousins actually think the true historical Southern Belles?
>>
>>72185739
That is a metropolitan dweller thing. Every meet a nice stranger from New York City while visiting their hometown as a tourist? What are about LA and Hollyweird? My point exactly.

With all their depressing writers that no one wants to read like Hegel, Kant, Schopenhauer ...
Germans can be incredibly high brow, so much it is just painful
>>
>>72182861
good culture and food. too bad they became such pussies though. Still we love our french bros even if they dont share the love back with us. We got your back when SJW nazis from germany come for you.
>>
>>72182938
WRONG.

We like to bust Frances balls. But otherwise Americans like the French. Cuisine, history, culture etc. Plus the whole Democratic/Republic revolutions taking place around the same time in history
>>
>>72185842
I imagine it must be like a New York o L.A. thing.
Take a sweet country girl from Idaho and put her in one of those two cities and in 6-12 months she a cumslut barista BLM supporter who lives in squalor and thinks she's "cultured".
>>

Special relationship. Americunts, Canucks, Assiefags, Britfags, and Frenchies can all talk shit on each other. We are friends and can bust balls. Anybody fucks with anyone of us and you fuck with all of us.
