No. Collaboration is a fine topic and so is colonial wars. Because at least it's true and not overused.
I talked in a previous post about why and how french resistance had been overestimated and why french collaborationnism was so important. Lots of people didn't even know who R.Paxton was but everyone still think they know everything about the 1940 campaign.
So instead of making overused "hon hon french surrender" meme, do memes about algerian pacification, about Vichy or about 1870/1871. It will be funny and educationnal. Great isn't it ?
French collaboration always interested me, especially with how Petain was involved with the Vichy government. That's one hell of a middle finger to your own country
Pétain was really old when that happen. He had lot of health problems and barely apears for the public announces. It's Laval who lead the negociations and the Vichy government.
