Holy shit, can't believe you're getting downvoted (comment is grey atm) just for pointing out France's colonial past. I don't know what's up with HN today.

- tobltobs 10y agoI guess he doesn't get downvoted for stating that France had a colonial past, but for implying that the colonial past is an excuse for not integrating into the society you live in.
- GuiA 10y agoNot an excuse; rather, a contributing cause. Failed cultural integration is a global symptom, not a collective of individuals who consciously refuse to integrate.
- galtwho 10y agowhat do you mean by not integrating? part of the colonisers spiel to the colonised is aboyut human rights, freedom and liberty.
