Unfortunately, this didn’t really happen
Thanks for this. We need a way of flagging satire or misinformation more clearly. I don’t think it’s enough to have it buried in the comment sections.
Maybe we should put these types of posts into a community and say that it’s non-credible in the name.
Well. Seeing as this is NCD…
I would say it’s obvious satire but then i remembered the reality we live in
Personally I take everything here very seriously as the community is clearly called credibledefense
That doesn’t mean anything to me.
It may be satire, but it could absolutely be real life. France is kinda lame and French people kinda suck.
Edit: if i had said the same thing about America, all you (lemmy users) Americans would all be like “yeah fuck smerica!” And I’d have up votes. But this is the leftist shithole called lemmy
Nothing lame about calling in a big loan !

It’s not like the USA oligarchy would pay… It would come from taxpayer’s money.
And they’re already flooded in debt.
Anyway, I wouldn’t oppose (nor is my place to decide, haha)
Your history lesson seems to forget America helping France, both financially and strategically, during and after WW2. I dislike the US position right now, but to suggest they’ve somehow been freeloading is patently false, and the rest of the world, Europe in particular, has relied heavily on the US since the end of WW2.

How considerate to have a guy in the corner translating to Italian.
Mama Mia spaghetti carbonara!
Sorry, that deal was made with the French royal family, not the republic. It’s null and void.
If you transfer debts and loans they’re still valid, it’s what the ussr Russia exchange did.
The debt was already paid anyways

It doesn’t matter. The debt was repaid in 1795 by James Swan, a banker who assumed the debt from the U.S.
France demands a mineral deal and a thank you
The US should be more thankful. And should wear a suit
Start with musk’s fortune and go down the wealthiest Americans list.
whats with the little guy in the corner
Sign Language Interpreter.
Eh only if the use that money to rebuild Haiti
NGL the USA becoming a French Colony would fix 90% of the political issues currently plaguing it.
Eh, it would probably end up like Haiti
Comparatively, check out how the US handled Bikini Atoll and Puerto Rico
Checking if I’m still banned from this community after I said Ukraine was not gonna enter NATO.
Edit: yay, now I can say “I told you so”
I’m still not sure you’re correct, they could always join after the US leaves.
Probably better off just trying to join the EU though
You were never banned from this NCD.
But congratulations for predicting that Trump would be elected and now celebrating it, I guess?
Nah actually my comment was Ukraine wouldn’t join NATO regardless of acting president because it wasn’t within the USA’s interest similar to how they stalled F-16 access for 3 years.
Also yeah I was banned from the reddit copy NCD lol: https://sh.itjust.works/c/noncredibledefense
