blackwell, the French are still pretty robust in cracking heads in their former colonies as well…maintaining that last vestige of Imperial Glory lording over Africans.
I find Marie Claude to be representative of French attitudes.
She will be delighted at another countries misfortune, which implicitly points to the lack of confidence in her own country. Wanting to tear down other people is a sign of an ugly pathology.
The US likes to lift other people up and have done so again, and again, and again. Its one of the reasons why we arent as powerful as we were before, because we have helped other nations and peoples up. We could have persued a policy of holding other people down and maintaining our absolute power.
But alas…
No good deed goes unpunished.
I pity the French more than anything blackwell…and that enrages them even further.
