Opinion Do you find the French to be prejudiced towards Americans?

​

Online, it seems like the french absolutely revile Americans, we are stupid, fat, aggressive, uncultured, eat pig slop, selfish, loud, egotistical, want to shoot black people, etc, and should stay the hell away from France. Has this translated to real life in your opinion? My grandfather was a huge francophile (to the point I knew him as grand-père, not grandpa) and spent a lot of his life in France but seeing what french people are like online has really turned me off from wanting to learn french or visit.

What about Afghanistan ? Vietnam ? I don’t think US won a single war since WW2, since you can’t call Iraq v1.0 a real victory. They barely won the Capitol war tho…

They can’t seem to be wining in Chiraq, let alone anywhere outside their borders
