French army has had its ups and downs but the modern variant is pretty based. They continue running their colonial empire in Africa like decolonization never happened

Yeh maybe the government downplays race/immigration to avoid any blame for their actions. Their older military history is also very impressive.

They're in an 8 year unwinnable war in Africa and have just been kicked out of their main operating base by the locals.
They have a lot of sway in the politics of their ex colonies (which is why French Africa is the poorest and least developed part)

I've read this meme before but never seen any evidence put forth for how it's the frenchies fault, which leads me to believe that it's just standard commie fanfic and that Africa is just a shithole as usual

French colonies around the world have been failures tho. Just compare French Haiti to England's Jamaica or Spain's Dominican Republic. Or how the French exit from their Asian colonies was easily the most humiliating L a European colonial power has taken in that region.

Dominican Republic is a primarily Latinx country rather than Afro-Caribbean one like Haiti or Jamaica tho but yeah itβs doing way better than Haiti, even having done ethnic cleansing against Haiti immigrants for causing economic problems in addition to hate for Haiti having ruled over the whole island.
