>be French
we did that already

The southern posh English accent is the only neutral accent
>>
>>57428081
Dude, Lancelot was french, so he wasn't white.
Portraiting him black is actually accurate.
>>
>>57428081
surprised that's not done by the BBC
>>
>>57427719
For the poorly read, Lancelot is the knight the cucks King Arthur and fucks Gwynevere.
>>
>>57428081
Are you being disingenuous or just silly?
>>
>>57428177
what did he mean by this
>>
>>57428209
The show is about contemporary Americans imagining themselves in old fairy tales. They were not implying Lancelot was black.
>>
>>57428332

can't really blame me for believing the memes blacks claim carthage and egypt were black as well

Ya know, when you force the same joke twice and still get no reply, maybe it's just that you should drop it m8.

>>57428732

Dunno about burgerclaps, but Québecois French is actually closer to what French sounded like in the 1700's than present day French as spoken in France.

I've never heard that before, but I've often heard from linguists that the southern dialect of the United States, is closer to ancestral english than the North Eastern/Boston accent.
