French officials, intellectuals, and journalists are warning that progressive American ideas are contaminating their society.

So Froggy Officials, DO Something about it.

Crack heads and break bones at them "Demonstrations", round up the offending Americans, fine 'em for all they've got and toss 'em in the hold of a tramp steamer headed for America.

Ya don't have to put up with 'em.

The French have committed cultural suicide over the past fifty years. They are devoid of purpose and meaning. Vapid people are always suceptible to bad ideas wherever they originate.

The French might be socialist but they’re still “French”. I don’t see the same with the Left here in the U.S.

france just decided that an ad promoting the humanity of children with Downs might cause stirrings of conscience in women who had aborted their babies and so it must be banned.

I officially do not care what happens to france.

Actually that’s general view of everywhere in Europe.
It is sad, but under Bidet and the Femme Horizontale, US is becoming the most liberal Western Country.
It used to be, US was the most conservative county and conservatives in Europe looked to US for inspiration. Noe it is turning around. Europeans are trying to stop the oligarchs and the critical race theories.

Woke-ism is mostly French in its origins. Foucault especially. Who was it that said “all bad ideas originate in France.”

This is the second article I have seen on the subject. If you learn French they will love you because they are proud of their culture and welcome those who at least try to fit in. I know, I’ve been there and spoke French, even though I am from the middle of nowhere in the USA. For the French, and much of the world, it is less about being socialist, conservative, monarchist, etc. than being for, rather than hating, the country. Here it is inverted, so yes American is exceptional in that sense.

It’s bad when the French think you have gone to far.
