"Americans died in two World Wars to help preserve French nationality and culture.

The same nationality and culture French leaders are now throwing away in their insane rush to turn France over to the muslims."

What do you think President Trump will have to say to or about Macron this afternoon concerning Macron's "nationalism" comments?

[Freee-dame]

I did a screen capture of several definitions of patriotism and nationalism. In none of them was there any reference to morality. Nationalism is the opposite of globalism.

Having redefined male, female, marriage, &c., the left moves on to nationalism.

If you studied history you would not be calling the Gauls cheese-eating surrender monkeys.

Meanwhile, Erwin Rommel had surrounded five divisions of the French First Army near Lille. Although completely cut off and heavily outnumbered, the French fought on for four days under General Molinié in the Siege of Lille (1940), thereby keeping seven German divisions from the assault on Dunkirk and saving an estimated 100,000 Allied troops.[33] In recognition of the garrison's stubborn defence, German general Kurt Waeger granted them the honours of war, saluting the French troops as they marched past in parade formation with rifles shouldered.

[Sirius Lee]

Yes I would.

Macaroni Man sure didn’t bother using a dictionary or thesaurus before opening his pie hole. He is a mangina proggie globalist two-faced rodent. No friend to America. Trust level = zero.

Many definitions of nationalism use patriotism to define it. Some use ‘super-patriotism’ to define it.

Nationalism is a synonym for patriotism. https://www.thesaurus.com/browse/patriotism

This is more proggie Newspeak at work (ala 1984); they want to redefine the word nationalist into something bad.

[polymuser]

Ahhh...

I totally agree with you.

I'm 71 years old in a month, and I've watched this relentless, purposeful mutation and degeneration of our language for decades.

I warned people about it as long ago as the early 70's when they started to tell us words like "criticism" and "judgmental" were negative concepts/attributes.

It's been going on too long to turn it around.

[RedMonqey]

Yes I would.

Then you don't know history. The common French soldier fought well and bravely What he didn't have was a leadership that understood modern war. Like many generals, they were prepared to fight the last war. The Maginot Line was a failure and the Germans exploited it weaknesses. The invention of the tank and forming divisions around did was more responsible for the quick French capitulation than the fighting spirit of the French soldier.

I'm not a French apologist but I am a student of history.

One must remember it was the French soldiers who stayed behind at Dunkirk so that the majority of British soldiers could escape to reform and fight the Germans and keep Britain as a base for American soldiers to prepare for WW2

Other bastardized words: Gay, discriminating (taste), rainbow, marriage, equality, rights, gender.

Macron is a dumb ass and his morals ain’t worth s*#t to begin with.

It's simple - The French are a dead end growth off the tree of humanity that has developed in strange and abnormal ways.

[greeneyes]

Macaroni will be sorry. Alpha male doesn’t take kindly to sneaky snake mealy mouth verbal stabs in the back.

[CodeToad]

The French are hillbilly Italians.
