Christopher Columbus

NICE!!!!

See Tesla. Many deserving never receive credit. Leif never successfully colonized and his exploits were forgotten to his own people for centuries.

just messin w/ you.

😆

The Vikings were not explorers, they were raiders. :)

They must've done a little exploring on the side, though, after the pillaging.

Probably to look for more people to rape and pillage, but exploring doesn’t put the mead and bread on the table now does it?

Fair point, but in a sense, exploring is how they find the best lands to plunder-- Ex:
"Bros, these lands produce nothing but weeds, their gold stores are meager, and, tbh, their
women are homely af, let us explore a little further down the river and see if we can find
a more worthwhile pillage spot!" :D

Yes, I stole this meme.
Don't care.

yep this is the truth

lolololol

So why is he the only illegal immigrant the right likes?

Well except he landed in the Caribbeans and never actually immigrated to the what we call US of A.

Ya we celebrate him for the spirit of exploration not discovering the USA but the America’s. Boldly going where no man had gone before, at least to the knowledge of western civilization at the time.

-Genocidal monster

-Families seeking asylum.

You people are f**king psychos. https://i.imgflip.com/5pvwqw.jpg

Your a genocidal monster who wants anyone who disagrees with your narrative to die. How are you any different? Other than he lived 600 years ago in a different world than you can even imagine.

You people are an active threat to my existence. I have no interest in killing you if I don’t have to, but based on the latest Covid numbers, you already seem to be doing a good enough job of that yourselves.

There it is wishing a disease will kill your enemies. How is does tgat make you better than Columbus? You would cheer spreading an infection among those who disagree. You are the monster.

By the way check the numbers lots of democrats dying from a disease you cheer on.

Indigenous people didn't have a free vaccine against smallpox. You're in a suicide cult of your own making.

That does t change that you cheer on a disease. Only the basest of humans wishes death by disease on others. You have your vaccine you are protected so be happy.

Here you are defending leftist talking points

It’s hard not to when they make a lot of sense.

Not really, it’s easy to twist reality to your definition and ignore that people who lived 600 years ago had different realities than you and the racist woke mob of today.

I'm sorry if they offend you.

Holding 15th century figures to modern woke standards is dishonest. Columbus is celebrated for boldly going where no man had gone before.

Oh, he was held by the standards of his time too and thrown in jail for them.

He was also involved in politics and intrigue. Assuming arrest equals guilt in the Spanish court st the time of the explorers is suspect. Was Cortez brought up on charges.

Lolololol, judging people by 2021 narratives is extremely naive and ignorant of the evolution of thought and actions over centuries.

Again, he was arrested for standards of his own time.

We’ve been over this.

He was arrested over accusations and spanish court intrigue. Open a history book and stop using leftist talking points.

By the way he was exonerated and his wealth restored to him.
