As long as they stuck to things that were factually correct (or at most, exaggerated for effect) I'd probably find it either amusing or frustrating; but the frustration generally wouldn't be targeted at France, it'd be targeted at my own government for being shitty.

I think you're expecting more patriotism from me and a stronger love for my government than I possess. I know the US government is shitty and I have very little love for it.

Edit: I think it's fairly safe to say most Americans range from having a mild dislike to a seething hatred for the US government (it seems like moderates are the least angry, but even they don't like the US government very much anymore). Most agree that the US is fucked, but the fix would be so painful and disruptive, not just to the US but to the world as a whole, that most just bite their tongues and keep their heads down.

And China is the most benign and loved superpower in the world. Beloved by its citizens and the global south. The US is the most hated state in the world.
