We were cool with the French for, like, a couple decades after we got founded. They were bros to us during our Revolution and then we were pretty hyped about their revolution. And then Napoleon came along and then Adams and his crew were just super angry about it, and we almost went to war with France, but then we didn't, but then we went to war with the British, but then everybody kind of got over it.

I really love this description.

Americans weren't that hyped for the French Revolution since the French public said we should side with them because they were just like them in wanting to throw over the royals. However, at the same time those same Americans owed those French royals a HUGE debt. So, Americans were caught in the middle and weren't that happy about it. More like whistling and walking away.

Americans were even more so when the Revolution became The Terror. They were horrified by the idea of beheading everyone in sight.

How things change, now beheading is sooo passe and old world. It's enthusiastically drone striking anyone in sight. And out of sight. And random buildings just in case someone might be there. There ain't nothing more 'Murrican than Terror these days.

I pretty much immediately discount the opinion of anyone who says 'murrican. They're going on memes rather than actual facts.

And yes drones are bullshit.

No, we weren't.

First of all, there's no we. The people alive in the 1790s are not us.

Second, Americans were not "pretty hyped about their revolution." Some Americans, notably Democratic Republicans, were. Others, mainly Federalists, were freaked out and favored the British side.

There were really big street brawls over this.
