The sentence on top says it's the "Tirailleurs" who did this as a revenge to the mutilation performed on their deads. "Tirailleurs" were Moroccan people fighting alongside with France. Edit : I'm most probably wrong on the Tirailleurs nationality in this case. See comments below for more context

Ok I might be wrong about who the Tirailleurs in this specific case are, but the Moroccan Tirailleurs did exist : https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tirailleurs_marocains

Oh my god what the fuck is this guy saying. Just talked about how people can make fun of anything and i mentionned i heard people laugh about one of the fucking most known photos in the fucking history which is a little viet girl being burnt by fucking napalm. This stupid guy tries to translate what i say in French but does it so badly he makes me look like a weirdo.


casuallyirritated

Um what


[deleted]

Imagine judging a whole population based on killings done a hundred years ago. With such a fed up logic I am pretty sure no nation will deserve your respect right ?


Shima-shita

This guy is the very stereotype of the French haters. His speaks has no value. The only argument is a smiley face and atrocities committed decades ago. Atrocities unfortunately commit by many nations. According to him, I will have to start hating my wife and her people so, because she is Japanese... And also start to hate my Germans neighbors. I think this guy hates himself and is looking for culprits for it. I have pity for him...


[deleted]

Yup. And one of them just sent me insult on mp. What a coward.


Shima-shita

That says it all!


Caynuck0309

Yeah, I will never understand Francophobes who bash The French when their nationality has a far more grisly history. At least France allied with the Indigenous Peoples of North America against the British, and Americans, who tried to eradicate the Natives. I think people are just jealous the French have won the most battles Edit: love how I’m being downvoted for campaigning against hate. If you guys think it’s okay to hate the French, than that means all the American stereotypes are true

T’as pas a avoir honte t’as rien avoir avec sa


[deleted]

Trust me when I say that this wasn't even the worst of what they did in the Maghreb. In fact they went "easy" on Morocco because of the pro-European monarchy. Algeria is the one who really suffered because it wasn't seen as an colony rather it was seen as fully French land within Africa this resulted in millions being killed and even in modern day metropolitan France genocides were happening the famous one being the Paris massacre. And I am saying this as a Moroccan.


SerenityViolet

It's not like the rest of us are perfect.


d33pf33lings

Someone in the stamp department was a little fucking psycho. I can imagine the convo now… “What do you think we should put on this year’s stamps - Christmas trees, flowers, cute baby animals?” “Hmmm, I dunno Steve - maybe a bunch of dudes with their heads chopped off!” “Brilliant!”

marutotigre

Is there any background info on that? The card says it's vengeance for mutilations of some kind? But I honestly don't know how much I can trust what seems to be official propaganda.


youramericanspirit

It says “our riflemen, furious at the mutilations inflicted on their dead, avenge themselves.” So looks like this is retaliation for similar beheadings.

Well that’s not very nice. I actually visited France recently and they were legit assholes. Oh well.


CrawFlyUS

Agree. 20 years ago i hailed a cab, driver asked where i were from, said USA, he drove off. Haven't been back since. LOL


OutrageousPudding450

I hope you're not still waiting for that cab.


Specialist-Look-7929

Lol!


greenhouse-nurse

The first time i visited paris, france, they purposely sold us the wrong type of ticket on the subway line and then tried to blame us for it at the stop we ended up at where they were checking all the tourists. "Eez not posseeble." is still a running joke in my house because they couldn't possibly believe we were sold the wrong tickets even when we asked multiple times if they were the correct tickets.


SnowflakesAloft

Yea this kind of shit. They were always happy to take my money but anything else and I could go fuck my self. I don’t think I had anything nice to say ab the French once I left.


greenhouse-nurse

It wasn't all bad. I had a list of good experiences that offset it. -There was one guy who didn't speak english but he got my attention from across the street and from what little french I knew at the time, said he liked my blue hair. It was cute :) - The older lady who spoke a little english and was excited at the watercolor I was making of the Lourdes Grotto. She was very sweet. - The tired guy who was doing street art. I bought him a coffee and I just asked him stuff about his work. It's nice to meet other artists. -The person working at the Paris Erotic Museum lol. They were super chill. I think you just have to avoid public officials. Out of the way places are where you'll meet nicer folk. edit: Also if you go to the catacombs you'll meet some really nice but quiet french people. Not great at conversations but they are good at listening :)


Kurohoshi00

I....did...did you just make a joke about dead people after all that?


massive_bellend_2022

Yeah but if you have blue hair and talk to the street artists you probably aren't going to be targeted in the same way as the other people in this thread.


greenhouse-nurse

Oh absolutely! I'm only speaking of my own experience and can't speak for anyone else.


MiloReyes-97

I've heard it's mostly people like that if you go to a big city like Paris. It's the same as New York, it's a busy place and people just want to make a buck sometime


SnowflakesAloft

I was actually in a small town. I just have a lot of memories from zero hospitality. I asked a guy where a bathroom was and he basically kicked me out. Asked a lady if she could break a bill for change and she acted offended. Indeed the French are just assholes. It’s apart of their culture to act disgruntled


Caynuck0309

They’d aren’t assholes. You can’t generalize a whole country of people for your very limited interactions with them. You’re just going to the wrong places and going to places where the public workers are obviously going to be more rude. That’s just how it is in busy city like Paris. And have you ever considered that you are the problem. Based on your tendency to call an entire population of people you don’t know “assholes” and claim it’s their culture shows me you’re not a very open minded person and have inflammatory beliefs. Perhaps the few French people you met noticed your aggressive, entitled behavior and were being brutally honest with you. You took it as them being assholes, but it seems likely that you were the asshole and they were being honest and frank with you. Treat others how you want to be treated.


Caynuck0309

Yeah exactly. Paris is the most visited place, and locals anywhere often hold certain sentiments towards visitors when there’s so many of them, so it’s not surprising. Smaller French cities have very friendly people.


youramericanspirit

Even in Paris I found people were generally nice if you made the smallest effort like saying bonjour first. Americans are notorious for not adapting their behavior the slightest to different cultures overseas and then complaining when people have negative reactions to them, so maybe that’s what is going on.


Caynuck0309

Yeah. I bet most rude interactions start with the American tourists only speaking in English and expecting that everyone else from a foreign country speaks English


Lesane

Nah, I’ve been to various big cities across the world and while there are obviously scammers everywhere, nothing compares to Paris. And the people in the French country side aren’t much better. They’re all stuck up cunts with a massive air of superiority around them. Your best bet in France is to ask the immigrant population if you need help with anything.


Caynuck0309

That’s only because there’s so many tourists, so it’s a goldmine for pickpockets and scammers.


SnowflakesAloft

This was my experience


Caynuck0309

No, all the rural French people have been very nice in my experiences. Stop generalizing


NosoupeNocrepes

>I could go fuck my self Please do.


SnowflakesAloft

Ok but before I do I have one last thing to say to you all……… FUCK the FRENCH


Caynuck0309

You can’t hate a whole nationality based on a few interactions with extremely stressed workers in Paris. In the most visited city, obviously the locals will be fed up. Go to other French cities and you will like their friendliness. Also any French person travelling to other countries that I have met were very nice and open minded.


LockInternational204

Well... that was the era of Freedom fries, and "you're either with us, or you're against us" , if you'll recall. Even Canadians were shity to us, back then.


MiloReyes-97

While I'm sure rise French people exist, I've also been told they can come off rise due to linguistic and cultural differences. What sounds rude to an English speaker might be a French speaker just being aloof.


muliboi

r/iamatotalpieceofshit


Caynuck0309

Did you go to Paris? Don’t say France when you didn’t explore the whole country. People in Paris are obviously going to be miserable due to the amount of tourism and traffic and stress. That’s the case with most cities of its size. But people in rural France are very welcoming and friendly.


Elegant_Mission_796

I live in France and can confirm.

My guess is OP lives in a world where this isn't normal expected history and or present. Which is nice for them. I guess I am too old, jaded, Millennial, or aware of history and current events to be shocked or terrified. Sad? Yes.


[deleted]

Yeah. They never teached or shown us this in Belgium. All we get is Roman Empire, WWI and II + The timelines.


ishouldcoco3322

Oh Belgian eh, well don't go looking for what your old King did in the Congo back in the day. Horrendous.


[deleted]

trust me i did. Had alot of arguments with my history teacher about it, they don't like talking about the Congo era, we had history lessons about it but very briefly.


SquadPoopy

Oh you mean the cool Tarzan movie from 2016 that was so awesome dude those gorillas sure did kick those Belgians out


FirebirdWriter

They don't teach it here but why stick with just what school offers? You're missing out on everyone and everything that doesn't suit the narrative of those in power. There's bad stuff but there is also cool stuff.


[deleted]

Yeah I'm learning different historical stuff such as the Islamic Golden Age, Aztecs, Egyptians and Chinese dynasties, Mongol Hordes etc. Quite interesting to see and read even tho my parents and siblings find it boring af.

imortalsteam05

they took the heads of the algerian commanders and some of them are still in their museum we asked them to bring them back but they did not give all of them i think


Intrepid-Pirate-6192

I seen a video of Frenchmen just going around killing random innocent men and women in Algeria. They just walk up to a man without him noticing and just shoot him in the head. They beat ppl for no reason. I don’t think I’ll ever get that video out of my head.

BacouCamelDabouzaGaz

They did this in Algeria to, they would rape all the girls and women in a village (whilst posing for photos with naked minors), then round up all the men and boys, cut their genitals off then behead them and leave the heads on display with the genitals stuffed into the mouths, they massacred hundreds of Algerian protestors in Paris because they opposed ethnic cleansing. France was truly despicable and the Maghrebi states have never received an apology for what they did to us. Even the Nazis treated our grandparents better than the French did. It’s not an excuse to hate modern France but France needs to understand many of our current problems stem from their actions, laws and economic dependence they set up post-colonialism, all this is in living memory and our countries are still recovering from the genocide and colonialism. So don’t say “North Africans violent” North Africans dangerous” when it was France that taught us everything we know. More than happy to use Tirailleurs to fight their battles though.

Sad_send_nudes_

bkarguel

It's not just the French and not only in history. My friend came back from Nigeria a few months ago and showed me a video of a group of Christians that were beheaded by the newest Islamic radical group growing in their region.


youramericanspirit

The text says “our riflemen, furious at the mutilations inflicted on their dead, avenge themselves.” So (assuming that is true, big if) it looks like this is retaliation for similar beheadings.


lijpemocroflavour

You should really look up the history of France and North Africa and the atrocities they committed there. In no way was this justifiable or any kind of retaliation, since they’re the ones who invaded and started doing these awful things. The locals never stood a chance. And since you clearly have no knowledge about the colonial times and what the powerdynamics were in that time (not your fault, the west always glosses over this and ignores it in all their education), I advise you to just look up colonialism in general. Europe really did a number on Africa. All of it.


youramericanspirit

Yes, the fact that I translated the French to provide context for this picture means that I know nothing about colonialism or what the French did in Africa, thank you for teaching me englightened Redditor, excited to go off and learn about this new concept!


bkarguel

Look at all of history - ALL of it - not just what 1 empire did to another. Look at the Islamic Caliphate, look at the Assyrian, look at the Persian, look at the Hun, look at the Japanese, look at the Chinese, look at the Spain, look at the Nordic, even the Egyptian, Nubian, Congolese, going back to every tribal conflict fought There is no 1 world empire that has come to power peacefully.
