Please remember that the disgust people have over Christopher Columbus is not based on some modern, 21st century āwokeā ideology, but rather on contemporaneous accounts of atrocities that make many modern genocides appear quaint in comparison. Below, are the accounts of BartlomĆ© de las Casas.

This has always been part of the GOP playbook: Downplay incidents of right-wing violence, and then repurpose them as supposed acts of leftist terrorism for public consumption. They first did this in 2020.
