Yeah, they made that clear when they said that they were discriminating against you based on the TLD of your instance. It's given me quite the chuckle.
Oh it gets better, they reported it saying I deserve to be shot to dead. I've never seen such a strong reaction to a pretty average meme.
Fucking Christ. It also seems entirely unclear to them that the JOKE is that even the FRENCH don't like their government. The only thing that could make it clearer would be for you to give the French pooh a guillotine.
