I don't blame people who make their native american race their identity for disliking Columbus. But its a bit like southerners who hang on to their confederate identity after losing the Civil War. They lost big time, and continuing to dislike historical figures that destroyed your culture is just wasting time. Everyone's culture was destroyed by the industrial revolution, but some are quicker at redefining themselves than others, and reaping the benefits of staying in the moment rather than negging on ancient history.

>he's the first terrorist in America
I'm sure the Incan Empire expanded northward and southward at the expense of no other peoples and that the Aztec's 'war-like' qualities were just a means for self improvement and were never put to practical use. That handful of men that Columbus left behind, the ones that were found brutally murdered upon his second voyage, must have just starved or something. They definitely weren't harmed by the prelapsian indigenous native americans who were an entirely peaceful, technologically advanced, and prosperous people.

The only reason Christopher Columbus "slaughtered and raped" their people was because they attacked when supposedly they would go back for more supplies for everyone. Over here, Christopher Columbus is still praised, not because he discovered America, but because he was the first pioneer to bring forth what is now America. He didn't discover anything, they literally just got lost but after learning that this was new land, the Spanish just came and conquered it, thinking "no one" had claimed it, when there were already people in these lands. Even though they claim HE'S the invader, he's really not, he probably didn't know he would be revered as an invader when he was leading the colonization of the island.
>>
>>56772599
I don't see why so much anger is attributed directly to him, rather than the colonist forces of Europe. I don't give a shit about them or sympathize with them either way, but it still seems weird.

Columbus was a very brave man and should be regarded as a Hero. He did more in a few months for the history of mankind than the Native Americans did in their thousands of years of existence.

Of course, he didn't know this, because was a bumblefuck retard who'd never been to india, or likely even been around much indian people or culture at all.


He just stumbled around at sea, got lucky and found inhabited land, then became a slave trader. that is the true story of Christopher Columbus.

>The fucking idiot literally thought he was in india. despite going the total wrong fucking direction

Going the "wrong direction" was the point. He financed his expedition trying to find a shorter direct route to India.

At least have some fucking knowledge before trying to spout off.

> the geography looking absolutely NOTHING like india

The geography of the islands isn't very different to the islands outside India.

> the people not looking like indians, no indian structures of signs of indian culture

Again he believed he was at the outskirts of the mainland of India. There was little direct contact with Indians and no good way of knowing what some natives on islands outside of India would look or behave like.

>Of course, he didn't know this, because was a bumblefuck retard who'd never been to india

An extremely long and hazardous journey that few made. The majority of trade was not direct from Europe to India. It was a series of trade routes, each taking a big chunk of profit.

Hence back to point one about why he attempted this and why people wanted to see it succeed enough to finance him.

Why do I know this and you don't you worthless excuse for american?

> got lucky and found inhabited land, then became a slave trader

He didn't get lucky, he didn't find India, he didn't even find a place of civilization and riches to trade with. The only fucking thing of value on the islands were people. Slave trading wasn't unique or novel to Columbus. He took slaves because it was the only real value he could find to justify his expedition to the financiers.

Aside from that, Columbus was just trained to be sent to explore mainly to focus on getting riches, and expand the christian faith (Don't remember if it was christian faith or whatever). The only thing that happened instead was that on his first voyage, which's purpose was to buy spices from India, he got to the island La Hispañola, obviously lost, and the Queen back then had ordered Columbus to colonize the land, being convinced by the Queen that by doing this, he will be remembered as a great conquistador. Among those lines, don't particularly remember everything.
>>
>>56776532
The first quote isn't surprising at all. Christians have never liked Islam and they were especially unhappy with Jews in a period so close to the inquisition.
The second quote is basically a compliment in a culture where slavery is ordinary.
The third quote just confirms that the locals couldn't put up much of a fight and Columbus was being a badass.
The fourth quote is admittedly really uncool. As a Christian, Columbus shouldn't be supporting this sort of thing.
The fifth quote is really only worthy of note when you consider how evil the natives must have appeared from the perspective of a Christian at the time. These people sacrifice each other, wear bones, aren't Christian, attack white men, and are sexually degenerate. It's pretty easy to see how Columbus might think of the locals as the spawn of the devil.

Zinn's A people History of the United States is a book from the perspective of the victims of various movements. It is an idiotic editorial, it displays all of the costs and none of the benefits to come out of the movement, and all movements have victims whether you believe those victims are moral people or not.

The essence of the "thanksgiving" argument is would you rather have Natives or America, and then only listing that natives were killed, enslaved, raped, and died of disease. Pretty one sided there, why would you ever pick America?

Tangentially, it is also funny to me that moral relativism arbitrarily gets thrown out here and doesn't count in an argument against a leftist. Who are you to say killing, raping and enslaving are bad? It is a part of white 17th century culture.

Is anyone on this thread actually doing any research on Columbus? Or are you all just making stuff up?

Columbus did commit atrocities in the Caribbeans as told by firsthand accounts.

http://rapidcityjournal.com/now/today/rcj/top-atrocities-committed-by-christopher-columbus/collection_76ebb2b8-f63d-11e3-a137-001a4bcf887a.html

>f captivity and death weren’t enough, Columbus and his men had a particular reputation for cruelty. Bartolome de las Casas, a young priest who participated in the conquest of Cuba and wrote a history of the Indies, describes the treatment of the natives: “Endless testimonies . .. prove the mild and pacific temperament of the natives.... But our work was to exasperate, ravage, kill, mangle and destroy; small wonder, then, if they tried to kill one of us now and then.... The admiral, it is true, was blind as those who came after him, and he was so anxious to please the King that he committed irreparable crimes against the Indians.... “ Las Casas describes how Spaniards rode on the backs of natives. How the Spaniards "thought nothing of knifing Indians by tens and twenties and of cutting slices off them to test the sharpness of their blades." Las Casas adds "two of these so-called Christians met two Indian boys one day, each carrying a parrot; they took the parrots and for fun beheaded the boys."

You could understand how the leader of a genocidal movement and cruelty on the Caribbean islands isn't all that well loved by Native Americans.

The Southern Americans don't exactly like general Sherman for his acts during the civil war. Even today, most Southerners avoid naming their children "Sherman" for this very reason. If there was a Youtube video about what Southerners thought of general Sherman, you would get a lot of the same responses these Native Americans have to Columbus.

>>56777164
I shouldn't have included that because it is not directly related, but I hear moral relativist arguments i.e. that absolute or universal morals don't exist and that acts must be seen in the context of their culture.

Columbus day is the celebration of the inevitable unification of both the new world and the old world.

I'm not going to feel bad just because Europeans didn't (in fact, no one did) have an acute understanding of germ theory or the devastating effects of introducing foreign biological material to new lands. It's not Europe's fault that North America lived in a bubble and was completely isolated from the rest of the world.

The net gain for humanity at the the demise of native americans has been substantially higher than its loss at this point, and I have a lot of trouble feeling bad just because a couple of warfaring tribes got fucked over by what was essentially an act of god.

Actually Columbus kidnapping Native Americans is the first documented violent act between Euros and Natives. This was closely followed by Columbus stealing whatever he wanted, and killing and injuring any Natives that objected.

Fun Fact: Columbus thought he was going to China, and thought that the Chinese understood Hebrew and brought Jews with him to act as interpreters.

0% triggered. Leftists are immune to facts. It's common knowledge that African niggers sold each other into slavery, both to other chieftains and to the white men who arrived from across the sea. Indeed, Africa is the only place where you can find countries where slavery is still considered culturally acceptable in the modern world.

Columbus carried three letters of introduction from his royal sponsors, one addressed to the Emperor of China by name, one to the Emperor of japan with a blank space (no one in Spain knew the name of the Japanese Emperor), and one generic, just in case.

It could have fairly easily been. I don't think European civilizations are better for having been more advanced at a certain place in time than some others. There are plenty of others where European civilization was still backwater compared to other places of the world and susceptible to being conquered(and much of it was, in fact, conquered)

I mean, once again, Japan had none of the technological innovation the West brought(and also didn't even invent) but they embraced it.

European civilization is what it is largely due to the influence of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern people.

All I'm saying is that you aren't really special.

I don't need to prove any objective morality to say moral relativism is a bad position.

There are different strengths of moral relativism, it is very easy for anyone to agree with the weakest forms that say different people have different morals. Really everyone should agree with that, we know that different people hold different positions on what is good and bad and that they are not just lying about those positions.

It is hard though to agree with stronger forms of moral relativism which take it a step farther and say: there are many different moral systems and therefore there are no good or bad moral systems. I will freely admit that this is not an untrue position, but it is also not a useful position. As an analogy there are many math problems that have a trivial solution of 0 forever along with other interesting solutions and that strong moral relativism is like that 0 solution and that by holding that that is the only solution you're discarding the actually useful ones.

Here's something

http://schillerinstitute.org/educ/hist/2013/ingraham-machiavelli.html

>In the first post-Savonarola government Guido Antonio Vespucci, an uncle of the explorer Amerigo, is named Gonfalonier, and he, together with Lorenzo di Pierfrancesco, sponsor the election of Machiavelli to two positions in the new government – Second Chancellor of the Republic and Secretary to the Committee of the Ten of War. Agostino Vespucci (Amerigo’s cousin) is elected as the chief assistant to Machiavelli, and later he would become Machiavelli’s liaison with Leonardo da Vinci.

>In July of the same year it was also Machiavelli who secured the commission for Leonardo to paint the fresco of the Battle of Anghiari, and he assigned Agostino Vespucci to aid him.

>On June 25, 1474, in response to a letter from Fernāo Martins, the Canon of the Cathedral of Lisbon, Toscanelli sent Martins a map, together with his proposal for a westward voyage across the Atlantic. At that time Martins was acting as the agent of King Alfonso V of Portugal, with whom Toscanelli had already corresponded on the subject of an Atlantic voyage. Later, between 1480 and 1482, when he learned of Toscanelli’s proposal, Christopher Columbus initiated a correspondence with Toscanelli and received from him copies of both the 1474 map and the letter sent earlier to Martins.

>Toscanelli’s map would then become the guidepost for Columbus’ heroic 1492 voyage of discovery.
(This map) >>56778247

>In 1474, when Toscanelli began his correspondence with Christopher Columbus on the possibility of a “western voyage,” he was simultaneously training the young Amerigo, and it seems very unlikely that Amerigo did not read that correspondence, particularly since he had full access to Toscanelli’s scientific papers and maps.

Where did I say that? Point it out to me please. I know full well that they were a bunch of warring tribes, I don't glorify them like the filthy hippies do.

I have nothing against nations conquering other nations in the past it was just the way of the world back then and if you were not strong enough to defend your own people then it's your fault.

I am talking about the treaties they made with them later when a couple of great men did get there people to unite and adapt to the modern age and even with there co operation they were betrayed.

Tecumseh destroyed US soldiers and militia in the war of 1812.
