    Many French soldiers were still fighting as and after the French government surrendered as the government betrayed them when the capitalists in parliament realized that they were actually pretty chill with fascism France very well could have ended the German advance with the help from Britain if it wasn’t for there own government

      how? the whole BEF was disarmed. the best units of the french army were destroyed/surrounded

      certainly they could've taken more krauts down with them but stalemate and eventual victory is a pipedream

        For real. There was no chance in hell of winning at that point. Keeping what was left intact was way more beneficial in the end.
