Yeah, because the Algerians just famously sat around and waited for the French to leave, and even if they fought, not like they were in any actual danger.

Yeah the French totally left all on their own, and this love of the freedom fighters is comparable to American conservatives.

That thread is a gold crap mine of dunk tank posts.

    The only thread of truth in the screenshot is that it's easy to romanticize resistance movements and to give specific ones a greater historical role than is accurate.

    Not the Algerian resistance movement though, lol. They kicked the French right the fuck out.
