No to Napoleon: 'PC gone mad' as French textbooks purge past

Parents and teachers across France are up in arms over new textbooks which carry accounts of French history revised to avoid insulting ethnic minority pupils. They say common sense has been sacrificed to political correctness in French schools. ­Natives of France now fear their identity will soon disappear along with their history.

Anti-Whites support mass immigration and "assimilation" being forced on all white countries and ONLY white countries.

If you're white & you oppose mass immigration you are labelled a "naziwhowantstokillsixmillionj­e­ws"

Nobody tells the developed nation of Japan that it needs to import millions of Africans, etc to have a more multicultural Japan.

Anti-Whites call themselves anti-racists, but what they are is anti-White.

Lots of people are saying: Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white

I hope the global Marxists understand that when the shit hits the fan, they're first.

France has been conquered and conquered over and over again...I don't see them teaching that in textbooks...

Sounds hypocritical and arrogant but then again, that's what many of the french like to put on, at least when I went to school in Lyon.

@FalseNarrative ...you mean a right to a good story? Unfortunately the genocide you speak of is usually the offspring of ideas created by people such as yourself - unable to face fundamental truths you endeavour to make sure there are no lose ends at the end of your fantasy....(hi-) stories.

@davidsphere A people with no right to their own history has no right to exist. You support genocide.

@davidsphere read Vincent Cronin's "Napoleon" or Robert Asprey's "The Rise and Fall of Napoleon Bonaparte" before regurgitating 19th century Anglo-Tory-centric propaganda.

History has upto now been taught as propaganda. A history that could be taught about the development of society/societies is far more important than Napoleons vanity campaigns. One mans personal hubris is not France. Like the cinema you cant understand history from histories super stars. Tom Hanks, Mel Gibsoin or Ronald Reagan ....teach you nothing of cinema. Usually, its the films of unknown stars and directors that move the art of cinema ....so do we learn from the uncelebrated of history.

88% of the population here in France are totally against this savage amputation of french history, but in this fucking ugly governement everyone shut their mouth... Well now all the Empire era and the Louis XIV reign (in definitive the two greatest leaders of all time in France) are removed from history book... Who's the next? Jeanne d'Arc? Blood and guts i fucking hate this governement, the worst of french history ! thanks to everyone which are against this !

[heinkhel]

I am sad. French people have so much to be proud of. Now you are not even allowed to learn about it! I as a Norwegian feel offended by this...
