How is it that a country that has a history of being so based (Revolution, Paris Commune, First International, etc) also end up as chud as the Angl*sphere? Boggles the mind.
It's easy, just remember the other side they were fighting lol. The communards called the third republic an empire without an emperor (or Bonapartist without a Bonaparte) for a reason.
Right. Just like the birth country of Marx and Engels produced the Nazis, or the October Revolution produced the Whites. Hell, even America had Eugene Debs and the Wobblies.
I suppose France just wasn't as good at curtailing revolutionary movements as much as Germany and the US did.

I would say they had a lot of potential post WW2 , the communist party won at it's peak but American influence prevailed
Mai 68 could've gone a very based direction, that was probably the last real revolutionary moment.
