You hit the nail on the head! This is exactly why I think the American attitude to the French is so peculiar:
American culture should remember the role the French played in the American War of Independence (and the French great great great great great grandfathers who died for you) instead of defaulting to that weird and crass "cheese eating surrender monkeys" nonsense.
The ones with brains know. I'm not special. Remember which voices are typically loudest.
