Also, fuck France; not for being cowardly or anything else the British roast them for, but for being ruthless imperialists

    On the one hand, ruthless imperialism. On the other hand, beheading aristocrats.

    Allons enfants….

    If you leave a French flag out to get bleached by the sun and the rain long enough, does it turn into a Trans flag? Or are we going to be picky about its orientation?

      If you leave out for even longer it turns back into a French flag! 🏳️

    You know… The French Revolution of 1789 (!) decriminalized homosexuality in all of its terrorities, including its colonies. While the UK kept forcing its homophobic laws on its colonies and did not decriminalized homosexuality until 1992/1994. Meanwhile many states of the US still have sodomy laws on its books. Mock the French, but maybe not for that one.
