Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day :)
To be expected there on the West coast. I had the "privilege" of staying there for a few months last year and there was this huge glorification of Indians going on out there. People white as milk were decrying the white man for all his evils and claiming that they were Indian when they might have been 1/16th Cherokee on a good day.
They are completely out of touch in many ways with reality out there, and operate in a bubble of contradictions and extreme and unfounded ideologies.

"Indigenous" my ass. Did the Indians sprout up from American soil like fucking gnomes or something? Of course not. They migrated there from Asia. Due to circumstance, priority, or their ineptitude (or a combination thereof), they were unable to develop any physical or intellectual technology which could stand in the way of the European colonists. Men are made to conquer. The Indians were soundly defeated. Life is life.
On a side note, I don't get why everyone hates the Europeans for bringing over disease, like they did it on purpose. At that point in history, the Europeans knew jack shit about viruses and the spread of disease. They cannot be blamed for this, since they didn't fucking know anything about it.

Some settlers distributed blankets filled with small pox to the natives. Quite effective. We've known the basics (diseases spread from contaminated bodies) for a long time. It wasn't uncommon for infected corpses to be launched over city walls during medieval sieges.
I don't think 90% of the cases were deliberate, but it did happen.

Huh, interesting. Didn't know about that. Where was this technique used?

His expression in this painting is perfect for the article. It's as if he's saying "bitches, please" from beyond the grave.
Christopher Columbus was alpha as fuck.

You know Columbus Day was instituted by FDR in a cheap attempt to woo Italian-American voters.
If voters now want to have Indigenous People's Day, then why not give it to them?

It is funny hearing people saying "Hey conquest is natural Indians lost, deal with it."
Meanwhile Indigenous people from the rest of our continent are currently re-taking huge parts of North America, and people get all in a tizzy about it.

If we can't stop them, we deserve it.
Big difference between military conquest, and millions of Mestizo peasants infilitrating and then exploiting resources from a benevelant host. Civilizations will always clash on equal terms technologically and militarily (see Europe) but 21st century immigration more closely resembles parasitic behavior.

The best analogy I can think of for this
Columbus is to Native Americans as Hitler is to Jews
So yeah, I sympathize with the Native Americans on this one.

It was a well used technique of medieval warfare in Europe.
