The Fox of France

Chapter 503: A Blackwash

As the news coverage deepened, the Ottawa Massacre was also widely reported. Of course, the French handled the reporting with great care.@@@@

"Remember, the coverage of this event must adhere to the following principles," Lucien said, reclining on a sofa in a salon at the Moulin Rouge, his head resting on the legs of Adèle, the current star of the Moulin Rouge, as he lazily directed a few of his subordinates.

Ah, this was one of Lucien's ways of working. Generally, those who discussed work with Lucien here were his close confidants.

"Americans, though barbarians, are for now our barbarians," Lucien said, his words muffled slightly by a grape Adèle had fed him.

"Since they are still our barbarians, we can't directly attack their barbaric actions. That would seem too unkind of us. However, we need to let the European people know that the Americans, like the British, are barbarians. Hmm, Gatien, what do you think we should do about this?"

Gatien, the new editor-in-chief of 'The Scientific Truth Gazette', who had just taken over after the previous editor retired with a tidy sum and bought a small manor on the outskirts of Paris to enjoy his days, naturally wanted to make a mark. Now was his time to shine, or why else would he be sitting in this coveted position?

After this explanation, Gatien anxiously looked back at Lucien.

Hmm, British people's genocide against indigenous populations, intolerance at home, and oppression of those who are different. America embarked on a path of resistance for these reasons. But Americans have not realized that the brutal Red Dragon lurking in British culture also hides deep within their psyche.

Look, even while resisting Britain, Americans didn't stop slaughtering other weaker nations, like the Native Americans. Their first president, Washington, was a barbarian skilled in making boots from native skins. They suffered from British barbarians and were also corrupted by their culture, yet they were unaware. Without even noticing, they gradually became the very people they despised.

So, Americans are truly pitiable; they have been deeply poisoned by Britain. And they haven't even noticed it yet, let alone defend against it. They are like, hmm, like the dragon slayer in 'The Tale

of Clever Christine,' who, after putting all his effort into killing the dragon, didn't notice the dragon's blood splattering onto him. So, after he decapitated the dragon, how did the tale go?"

"'He sat in the pool of the dragon's blood, his eyes began to turn red, his body swelled, and scales grew on his skin—he became the very dragon he had just killed.' That's what it says there," another subordinate replied.

"Exactly, although the dragon hasn't been slain yet, the American's skin is already itching, scales are about to form. Unless they can truly awaken from within, unleashing a revolution against their own culture from their hearts, this tragedy won't stop. Thus, we must remind our American friends to learn more from the advanced, humanitarian French culture to cleanse the evil from their souls. Ultimately, to become truly civilized. Our propaganda must follow this formula," Lucien concluded.
