A win win situation
Buffoonery
Only buying 'freedom fries' from now on.
JulioSteinlager
Are we going to have freedom fries and freedom toast again?
ucandcantunc
And never will travel more than a few hours from their trailers.
tyrunn
Remember Freedom Fries? They've always been idiots
reverendbonobo
"I ain't never buying their mustard again!"
Fedotia
The US-owned and US-produced FRENCH mustard had to send a press release 20 years ago as the deplorables were boycotting it en masse following the disaster of the Irak invasion.
reverendbonobo
Holy shit. Nothing I make up can compare to the actual stupidity of these people.
thunderspud
You.... you don't need a passport to boycott somewhere FYI.
obijan
Technically true I guess. But it is as effective as me boycotting Maserati.
GordonFreeman59
I've been a strong advocate for boycotting any airline first class since my birth and I'll die on that hill. Willingly or not.
TheBlueMuppet
Guaranteed they'll start saying 'freedom toast' and 'freedom fries', again. Maybe they'll start switching it up and buy Freedom Doors, or get a Freedom Manicure.
Fedotia
What kind of fabricated far-right outrage am I missing? Last time I heard about boycotting France was in 2003 and the disaster of invading Irak, the deplorables boycotted the US-owned and US-produced FRENCH mayonnaise and sang as a choir all the French-bashing slurs they heard from Rush Limbaugh.
gsynth
I am French and I cannot understate how much we love it when conservative Americans try to boycott us. Must be doing something right.

Outrage because art weirdos gonna art weirdly. The party of “F**** your feelings” sure has a lot of feelings that get hurt often.
ThrowAwayAcct0000
I understand feeling confusion: "What the hell is that?" I don't understand feeling outrage about it. Just shrug and move on.
Noughmad
That's why they don't say "fuck my feelings" or even "fuck feelings". They explicitly say "fuck your feelings".
SarcasticComment
France is a historically catholic country... so the issue isn't they might have called to religion. It's that they included gay people and that's "inappropriate in polite company"
Mobuddy
If you "feel" when looking at art that means it worked! No matter the feeling! #snowflakes 😆
TI99Kitty
That's because the party that calls everybody "fragile little snowflakes" is full of fragile little snowflakes.
ilsalta
“Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty of.”
Noodlesocks
Good ol' Freedom Fries.
LastProphecy
Big Monseigneur Candie vibes from them.
originalhuman
I can’t see how France is losing if they buy Merlot just to shoot it up
amipretty
Oh my, where will I be able to get my French mustard Skittles?
Mickazilla
I wish I could ctrl+Z my eyes sometimes
ThrowAwayAcct0000
Eh, they'll be pissed about something new in a week. That's their defining characteristic: they're always angry about something. That must be so exhausting, living like that.
ucandcantunc
It's fear. Anger is the response but it's all fear tactics.
ElusiveThing
Okay. I appear to be out of the loop. What upset the yokels this time?
stevencloser
The opening show for the Olympics.
ElusiveThing
Oh. I quite liked it, but then again they are angry about many things I don't understand. Thanks for catching me up!
Mickazilla
Reminds me when we didn't endorse USA with the war on Irak. They were like "OK???!!! THEN WE WILL STOP DRINKING WINE AND EATING CHEESE HAHAHA!!!!"
And we were all like "huh yeah ok"
Fedotia
There's already incredibly high taxes on food products, and the industrials buying French heavy machineries dont care. But it was fun seeing the deplorables boycotting the US-owned and US-produced FRENCH mayonnaise.
Mickazilla
Same for "french" wines, like bruh your Pinot Noir is made in California.
theytastelikeburning
From what I remember about the pro Bush crowd, probably closer to Boones Farm.
expectantbamboo
I’m out of the loop, what’s today’s flavor of controversy?
Lulabel73
Skuggen
They "accusing" the olympics of being woke
WrathOfJigglypuff
It's always some varied flavour of bullshit.
eromitlab
My guess: the opening ceremony supposedly mocked gawd. It didn't, but right-wing media said it did, so it must have, and they'll be mad about it until they're told to be mad at something else.
GordonFreeman59
Frenchman here, I had no idea the opening had this effect on some. It's a nice reminder that among the firsts to go to the scaffold, many were from the Clergy, and for the same reasons.
PeeterGrant
Oh god. - is it time for "freedom fries" again?!
Detacheddavid
And stop buying Marin French Cheese
Fedotia
Last time I heard about boycotting France was in 2003 and the disaster of invading Irak, the deplorables boycotted the US-owned and US-produced FRENCH mayonnaise and sang as a choir all the French-bashing slurs they heard from Rush Limbaugh. It's fukken cringe to see "white flag" memes still existing in 2024.
Hashbrown123
I was thinking the same thing.
cepacolusmaximus
I'm starting to think the whole anti-french sentiment has more to do with discrediting their vocal and mobilized workforce than anything else
DoingItWrongSince1980
"I'm starting to think"
Sorry, you lost me.
HommeDeFeu
France, I've telling them the Olympics are in Paris Texas. Not even joking, I've been telling them it's cause Ted cruzes wife's boyfriend is bisexual and hot dam have I seen some really concerned and upset people when I tell them that. It's funny as hell.
SirDigger13
This hasnt enough upvotes... Strange thing, i knew Paris TX... it has an EifelTower... with a Cowboy Hat
HommeDeFeu
Wait.... I know about the tiny Eifel tower ... But does it have a cowboy hat??? Or is there a rather large cowboy hat somewhere around the fake tiny Eifel tower.

HommeDeFeu
OMG that's even better than the fake eifil tower I was thinking of. I think it's in Las Vegas... Nevada that is
NothingPrince
Please be true
HommeDeFeu
They're Republicans, I tell them weird shit all the time. They can't tell what's true or not. They're so busy lying to themselves about how they aren't bad people. They can't see the daylight anymore.
justfiguredoutimc4azyanddumbb
I sent two of them to Las Vegas new Mexico instead of Las Vegas Nevada. Betcha they learn to read a map now..... unlikely tho.
HommeDeFeu
Wow, never even heard of Las Vegas New Mexico. Looked it up and immediately, on the search page alone you know it's not Las Vegas Nevada.
Gonna see if I can't get some of them to think Nevada is like a county in New Mexico or something like that.
IWasGoingToMakeEspresso
There’s a Las Angeles, Texas.
justfiguredoutimc4azyanddumbb
Good job. It'll be fun and easy. Like my sister.
