Why were they like this?
>>18412454French helped in the America revolution. Ireland and Italy/Italians didn't. That's my guess. I'm just spitballing so I could be wrong. Also to my knowledge French people didn't have a huge migration to America like Irish and Italians did. So naturally going to hate the new group flooding your cities and countries vs the distant one who helped you one time during your founding.
>>18412454Try to find one difference between savage Irish refugee fresh off the boat and educated French gentleman
>>18412454A lot of the Irish hate came from Irish settlers siding with the Mexicans during the Mexican-American war due to their shared Catholic faith.
>>18412454France during that era literally persecuted the church. Hence why atheist libcucks like Thomas Paine moved there.
>>18412454A lot of the French were Huguenots and deists, not Catholics
>>18412473Catholic union of Spain and France "help" US out spite Britain power.A grave mistake.

>>18412454france abandoned catholicism at the time
>>18412454France is cool as fuck and a people to look towards. At least they were...
>>18412549This, they weren't paddies or wops gibbering about how martin luther used his demon magics to kill their grandfather's crops in the winter of '48
The Catholicism of the French did attract unfavorable notice though, but the French themselves are simply more racially compatible with American society than micks or dagos are. It's a testament to just how deeply alien the Irish are to Anglo-Saxons that, even in their deeply Anglicized 19th century form, they were still obnoxious enough for us to hate them.
>>18412454tbf they were right. If this board is anything to go by the Catholic Church is out to convert America and change it according to its own image.
>>18413078As a Catholic, this is the exact opposite problem of what Rome has been doing. The issue is not that Rome wants to convert America, it's that Rome has never had any interest in doing so at all. What Rome has done is push for migration of Catholic ethnicities into America and advocate for their interests against those of Americans.
>>18412454The Frenchman proved himself honorable and a friend during the revolution, even if we did bump heads a bit after on the high seas.
>>18412454It was more to do with the time period; massive wave of Irish immigrants in the 1840s shortly followed by the birth of the Fenian Movement, an openly violent Irish revolutionary movement. It had two wings; the Fenian Brotherhood in the US, and the Irish Republican Brotherhood in Ireland.They carried out terror campaigns, and invaded Canada from the US (and beat their army) that one time. Most of the "anti-Irish" imagery (portrayal of apes, etc) was specifically about the Fenians. Also what >>18412504 said; Irish soldiers were so badly treated in the US Army during the Mexican-American War that they famously swapped sides to become the much revered "San Patricios." There's also the fact that half of Latin America had Irish people in or near the government during+after their wars of independence against Spain, kekked.

According to the legend, Francisco freed and picked up the 1,100 lb (499 kg) cannon barrel and carried it on his shoulder to keep it from falling into the hands of the British.>>18412473https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Barry_(naval_officer)>Born March 25, 1745 Tacumshane, County Wexford, Kingdom of Ireland>He has been credited by some as "The Father of the American Navy", sharing that moniker with John Paul Jones and John Adams, and was appointed as a captain in the Continental Navy on December 7, 1775. Barry was the first captain placed in command of an American warship commissioned for service under the Continental flag. After the Revolutionary War, he became the first commissioned American naval officer, at the rank of commodore, receiving his commission from President George Washington in 1797.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italians_in_the_United_States_before_1880#1776_to_1850>In 1773–1785, Filippo Mazzei, a physician, philosopher, diplomat, and author, was a close friend and confidant of Thomas Jefferson. He published a pamphlet containing the phrase, which Jefferson incorporated essentially intact into the Declaration of Independence:>Tutti gli uomini sono per natura egualmente liberi e indipendenti. Quest'eguaglianza è necessaria per costituire un governo libero. Bisogna che ognuno sia uguale all'altro nel diritto naturale.>Translated by Jefferson as follow:>All men are by nature equally free and independent. Such equality is necessary in order to create a free government. All men must be equal to each other in natural law
