>>518738122uuh Columbus was a Spanish Jew actually
>>518738464
He was such a dickhead that they removed him from his governorship then put him on trial for his mistreatment of the natives
>>518738122He was a slave trader and pedophileHe's the perfect kind of guy that burgers would worship

Columbus was Jewish, he left the day Jews were expelled from Spain.
>>518739004By the way you speek it seems like he discovered underage georgian pussy too.
>>518738862Pretty much everyone in waffle land acknowledges the horrible shit Leopold did and no one would worship the guy
>>518738122Columbus was a Jew, the evidence is overwhelming
cortes was a lying prick
>>518738122Christopher Columbus was a Franciscan tertiary. He set sail just after the Portiuncula, a Catholic feast celebrating St. Francis. The Catholic fraternal order the Knights of Columbus are named in his honor. He brought Christ to the New World, just as his names suggests for Christopher means Christ bearer.
>>518738122he wasn't a jew, he was just (((Genoese))) like me
>>518740832He literally delayed his voyage so that he wouldn't leave on Tisha B'Av
Columbus gave me romantic ideas about his way of live through all-time travelling without any hope to reach the results
>>518740770He did no such thing, he raped and enslaved gentiles he encountered as per the Talmud
>>518738122Hey kid, Columbus forced the Taino people to mine gold even though "Hispaniola" had none. When the people didn't meet the quota of gold he enforced, he cut off their limbs, noses, and ears. Then he would force them to present their mutilated parts to other Tainos to humiliate them. He also took all the women and made them into a commodity. They were pleasure "things" for the men and treated like cattle. Young girls were raped, and when they had children, the newborns were fed to war dogs. The dogs also attacked innocent Taino in villages and permanently mutilated them for no reason other than "because we can". The Taino then began to starve because Columbus diverted their food production to finding gold. His own men also began to hate him because any gold and precious things they did find were hoarded by Columbus and his brothers. The word spread to Spain so Spain sent more men to Hispaniola to investigate. He was arrested and sent back to Spain in chains.Do you think that's heroic?
The people in charge of the expedition-didn’t have to man the ship-made 50% of the profit-had a navigator-fucked the slave women Then got to come home and have statues built after letting 1/3 of the ship starve before them. Such bravery!!
>>518738122indigenouous peoples day
>>518738122Does anybody here know about the theory that he knew the new world existed before his voyage? He conveniently laid claim to all newly discovered lands between Spain and Asia as a part of his contract with the Spanish crown.
>>518742195I do not know about that theory. Elaborate. Is there any evidence that he EG knew about the Vikings reaching America? Or was he just guessing that maybe there would be an Island or something?
>>518740739This. Early adaption had to be terrible to lead to colonialism. Couldn't imagine them being nicer than me. To strangers at that.
>>518742195I have heard this theory and I do think it is plausible. The Azores had been discovered in 1427. So people would have been using the islands as a base for further exploration of the Atlantic. It's also possible that in the generations after that people from Portugal and Spain combed English and Scandinavian records for all information on Atlantic exploration.
>>518742195What the fuck. I never heard about this before. I asked @grok is this true I'm surprised. My chart is 2 years post colon death for treaty of torts and I thought that's what you were looking for because it's well documented and pretty large for just getting out there. There's a nautical map that shows land 2300 miles off from Africa in the early 1400s I'm going to do a bit of a deeper dive into this. This was really interesting. Never heard that theory before but I have a theory that Africans are the first to traverse. Any way you take it seafairing and boats have been in African history for a long time. It wouldn't make sense to have Europe with terrible water channel make it before Africans. Even Greenland find I doubt. Even Canada find I doubt. Water doesn't water like that.
>>518738122>”italian”>praising Columbus and not talking about how Amerigo Vespucci got shafted
>>518740739>>518743790but what did he lie about though?
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ColombusMap.jpgIn a map made by Columbus and his brother around 1490 he does show Iceland and there is a block of text adjacent to the island. He also depicts phantom islands as far north as Ireland and as far west as the Azores.
Anything he did or did not do doesn’t matter. What matters is be stamped his mark in history unlike you.

detail of the phantom islands section
>>518738122No because im PT.
>>518738122
>>518738252Oh yeah I FORGOT Christopher Columbus invented slavery.
>>518738122No he was just some dude that wanted to fuck around on a ship and bang strange puss
>>518738122>Muh gero>Syphilis cracka>Race mixer faggot got sick after fucking Tiana free pussyYour based hero bro
>>518744511I hate this type of retarded mutt who is probably not retarded but is and should be shot
>>518745007There's a lot of Italian explorers. Columbus was just the first. There's also John Cabot whose real name was Giovanni Caboto and Giovanni da Verrazzano.>>518747483faggot
>>518744511https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statue_of_CorvoAt least the Vikings knew about it way before. I think people had some hope and a good guess that there could be something out there.
>>518741344Most of everything written about Columbus was written by his political enemies. You can't take anything what they say as true. The Spanish didn't give one shit about the native population either.>>518744839>There's a nautical map that shows land 2300 miles off from Africa in the early 1400s I'm going to do a bit of a deeper dive into this.It is probably Asia. Map makers would add land that they know little about. They would also sometimes even add land that they just thought might be there. They didn't know Antarctica existed, but they assumed that the world needed land on the south to counteract the land in the north so maps often showed what they called Terra Australis (southern land). When the continent of Australia was found they used that term for it, then a few years later they discovered Antarctica lol.
>>518738252We can agree on this and also agree it’s fucking stupid to try to change the holiday at this point. Just keep it as Columbus Day and make sure we emphasize the reality of the situation
>>518747257based?
>>518738122yes.>t. wop from new york
>>518738122I eat his salami every day.
>>518738464>uuh Columbus was a Spanish Jew actuallyThat explains why he was into slavery. I though Christopher Columbus originally went traveled around the globe to prove that it was round? And just ended up in the North American continents instead? Either that, or there was never a Christopher Columbus and the whole thing was a lie to begin with.
>>518738122He is a hero. Indigenous people never accomplished anything and I'm sick of this fucking garbage destroying white history for browns.
>>518738252The only contemporary people who ever spoke ill of Columbus were people crying to the King that wanted his governorship for themselves.
>>518738252>>>518738122 (OP)>>518741218>He was objectively a terrible person. Enslaving people is wrong.>>518738252.You are a liar worse than what you condemn.. KYS, commie dupe...your Mom says you had better.
>>518751244indigenous people would have done much worse to europeans if they had the means of crossing the fucking atlantic
>>518738122I don't hold any strong opinions on Columbus
>>518752319Put a gun in your mouth and pull the trigger Nazi nigger
He set foot in the Caribbean, never the U.S., and if we're being technical about who set foot here foot first when talking about European explorers, Leif Erickson found N.A. first.
Placing 21st morality on a guy that lived in 1492. Sounds like progressives
>>518752982erikson never told anybody and no permanent settlement came from it so who cares. He also only went from greenland to nova scotia, that's child's play.
>>518748004Columbus admitted to the atrocities, nigger. He wrote about it in letters. He claimed it was done to maintain order. What was exaggerated were the total numbers of Taino killed. Las Casas claimed millions were slaughtered (not true). It was thousands though. The crown didn't strip him of his governorship for nothing.The exaggeration
