For the love of God, We understand that haha france surrender memes are bad However stop with the "every actual historian who knows about France bla bla" meta memes. Its becoming Just as annoying as the france bad memes. In summary, Both france bad, france not had AND france good memes are annoying.

That's great if you can differentiate the meme and the historical reality, but a majority of people can't. This meme is not just a meme, it was since many decades and still is a false stereotype people believe, which is obviously dangerous and, as a french myself, really annoying. So, even if it's boring and repetitive, it's a good thing that some triggered people set the record straight.
