Guest The Czech Republic Report post Posted June 22, 2003 I don't really have anything against the French. Sure, they're a bit goofy, but I speak French. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Cancer Marney Report post Posted June 22, 2003 I nulled my vote, because I really do hate the French and the word "prejudice" has negative connotations, including but not limited to irrational, unjustified, and unfounded. And my loathing for the French is anything but that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JMA Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Well, technically, if you hate the French it IS prejudice. Because you are grouping together and generalizing an entire people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anglesault Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Or she's referring to the French Govt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Cancer Marney Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Correct. And those who support them. It's a hatred of an attitude and a way of thinking that is and historically has been characteristic of the French people; it's not based in ethnicity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JMA Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Or she's referring to the French Govt. Well, there IS a reason to dislike the French goverment. But she did say it was "wrong to be French" and things like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Cancer Marney Report post Posted June 22, 2003 fer chrissakes. That was an obvious joke with long-established precedence. But even so, insofar as "French" is understood to refer to a falsely elitist, socialist, Gaullist, morally relativist and/or amoral attitude (which in context it generally is) rather than ethnicity (which would be ludicrous, since "French" can technically refer to dozens of ethnicities) I stand by it absolutely. If you don't understand how being completely over the top can be funny I submit that it is your problem to deal with and not mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
