Didn’t y’all read? Instead of “the French”, a more appropriate term they recommend is “people with mental illnesses”.

We apologize for the fault in the subtitles. Those responsible have been sacked. We apologize again for the fault in the subtitles. Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked have been sacked. The directors of the firm hired to continue the credits after the other people had been sacked, wish it to be known that they have just been sacked. The credits have been completed in an entirely different style at great expense and at the last minute.

Victims implies vulnerability. We now prefer people with a condition of being French.

I mostly use “The French” in a dehumanising manner. Which is a good thing, because a chess opening should not be humanised.

Are you telling me that my love of the Caro Kann is inhuman?

Love is a human emotion, so the Caro Kann will never love you. Hope you recover from this loss.
