DBWI: Why is France not popular with international tourists?

Who wants to visit the melted radioactive stump that is the eiffle tower? Or the bombed out Mediterranean sea ports?
 
The only two groups of people I know that visit France are documentary crews going there on the hush to film the squalor the people are living in or self-proclaimed "History Heroes" who go there, buy as many items of historical value as they can, then return home and donate it to museums. I know they get a bad rap for their some time extralegal methods, or sometimes outright theft, but it better than the stuff being destroyed, as it seems that the government is declaring something is "against the revolution" every day, such as how they outlawed cheeseburgers because America refused their ultimatum to rename rename French Fries to something else so France is not associated with the "capitalist pigs" in America. Glad President Woodward had a backbone and refused to comply.

In 2003 George W. Bush the French pro also nicknamed the French fries the "slave fries" to denounce the oppression of capitalist civilization in the world and in his own country. To call him French fries like that is nonsense. He is very appreciated for that in France, at least among the elite.

Wait, aren't French Fries Belgium, so it's not even French history?

In my opinion, a large part of the lack of tourism in France is that there's just no hub for anything. I mean, MittelEuropa utterly outclasses anything France has done in the past century. Even White Ruthenia has a larger GDP per capita, and a large part of this is because of France's utter devastation in the North.
 
Yeah, that is one the reasons that Woodward stated in his reply to the French ambassador rejecting their frankly silly demand. Just imagine if another world war had stated over his rejection of their offer. Wait a second, that is a good idea for a discussion on anotherpossibility.com, I'll have to start that right now.
I checked, and I think it might have been some Americans who didn't know that Calais was now Belgian, or something.
 
I blame the constant revolutions and coups in the country. Every time a new political party takes over, the other one revolts, like that time where the party that tried to restore the Bonapartes at the end of WWII, and then the Socialists won in the 1960s, which lead to a US funded military coup, then after 3 decade dictatorship, lead to another revolution in the mid-1990s, which again, lead to another party trying to restore the House of Orleans-

-you get the point.

François Mitterrand wrote a book on the subject: "Les coups d'état permanents".
 
The french are rude assholes to everyone, bunch of racist pricks.

I don’t know- I’ve never been there but the reports I've gotten back are mixed. My late father snapped once that Paris was too good for them. OTH, other people have told me they found the French to be quite nice(especially if you get outside of Paris, which still hasn’t gotten over the national government moving to Nancy).

That makes a lot of sense. I don't think I've heard of any recent dictators from outside of the Paris metropole.
