I feel like that boils down to “I want a chart, but in words instead of visualization.”

Thank you for proving my point.

Those are completely separate things. American right wingers were pouring out wine and throwing cheese away as a “fuck you” to the French who dared not support GWB. These were the days when I regularly read “if you don’t support our President, you’re not a real American.”

It had nothing to do with France’s history. If Germany refused to back us, right wingers would have been selling or crushing their BMWs and Mercedes in a performative fashion.

This is just how the right wing behaves. If they don’t get what they want, they demonize whoever didn’t support them. It’s the same way that Trump runs everything: like a petulant mob boss.

Americans saw the French as surrending cowards due to WWII, long before the while Iraq thing. I have no idea why there are two people in these comments pushing this claim that it’s due to the Iraq war.

The jokes were always ignorant, but they’ve been around since WWII.

“Cheese-eating surrender monkeys” long predates the Iraq war. It comes from their surrender in WWII. Yes, the jokes ignore their resistance movement and the fact that they basically lost an entire generation of young men to WWI. It also ignores that Britain failed to help France.

I have never in my life heard of Italians being stereotypical cowards.

I think you misunderstood the parent comment. Admittedly, it was poorly worded.

Will he be talking about coral?

Am I correct in my understanding that Ukraine is targeting Wildberries because they were distributing parts used to manufacturer drones for warfare? And that these are all warehouses, not (directly) related to manufacturing?
