columbus day salt

[Hummingbird]

Following up on my comment of earlier, we should call it "Queen Isabella Day". Honoring a Hispanic woman who overcame adversity, worked against slavery, and empowered men to discover new continents.

Of course, they'd throw a fit because she greenlighted the Spanish Inquisition--even though she didn't expect what they were doing. (rimshot)

She's the wrong kind of Hispanic; too light and from Europe.

Oh look, it's Mr. Punchable.

My Facebook SJW shared a post from an ANTIFA group celebrating the vandalism of a public monument:

I'm expecting more Columbus Day salt from her so stay tuned.

Considering that Isabelle was responsible for kicking the Jews out of Spain, that probably wouldn't go over too well either.

It is certainly convenient for the Injuns and the rest of the indigenous peoples of the Americas that the Clovis people and their contemporaries decided to leave peacefully before our more modern noble savages showed up on the scene.

This is why whenever I see that faggot indian crying like a bitch over a McDonalds wrapper getting tossed out the window, I throw a bucket of paint at the TV.

Not forgetting those nice muslim POC's, they're more brown and opresed.

Reconquista? REEEEconquista.

the moral of the story is bears are literally hitler

On the date of his death, May 19, 1506, his Jewish roots started poking out. Two of his last wishes — tithing one tenth of his income to poor people and providing an anonymous dowry for poor girls — are part of Jewish tradition. He also explicitly decreed giving money to a poor Jewish man living in the Jewish Quarter of Lisbon, Portugal.

In his will there is a subtle yet noticeable symbol — a triangular signature of dots and letters — that is distinctly similar to a symbol found on Jewish tombstones in Spanish cemeteries. He requested that his heirs always use this symbol as well.

That guy wasn't an Indian. He was an Italian actor.

Yep, Iron Eyes Cody, also known as Espera Oscar de Corti, Italian-American. Though one could make an argument he was transracial, seeing as he openly identified as Cherokee and even adopted all of the most stereotypical facets of Native American life.

Being transracial before Rachel Dolezal and Shaun King did it.

All these comments and political cartoons that think they're clever by re-imagining Columbus as an illegal immigrant are just pointing out how much of a weakness it was for the Native Americans to allow strangers to live in their lands unchecked. It's the greatest argument for cracking down on illegal immigration that someone could possibly make.

Time traveling Indians are the real threat. Gonna kill all the rapist Spaniards and change history!

So that they can go back to being outright killed in massive numbers by Aztecs. Which is exactly what their ancestors were trying to stop by allying with the Spaniards.

It's all noble savage shit. The white man's burden is now guilt. People are assholes, and people with power are even bigger assholes. Whites are not the only people who have chosen to do evil, and it's incredibly racist against non-whites to pretend otherwise. Like they're innocent powerless children or something.

That is basically what they believe when it comes down to it.

There's a reason everyone in the fucking region, when the Spaniards showed up looking for gold, were all like: "Oh, you want GOLD? Yeah we can tell you where there's tons of GOLD! There's whole cities made of it, over thattaway."

Completely unknown foreign invaders were considered better than the Aztecs, who had been raping and murdering the shit out of everyone around them for generations, often for no fucking reason at all, just to get human sacrifices, sometimes just for fun. They were pretty badass, actually, kind of like Americans.

Just like other cultures would demand tributes of money/goods/slaves, the Aztecs would charge their weaker neighbors tributes of humans that were explicitly going to be used for human sacrifices, and all their neighbors knew it. Every season or so the Aztecs would show up at your doorstep and demand fresh victims so they'd have more hearts to rip out still beating to offer up to the gods. Pretty goddamn horrifying.

I've known people who hated how the other mesoamerican tribes "sold out" to the Europeans to betray and overthrow their Aztec Brothers.
Because, you know. you're going to consider the people who rape and ritually gut and dissect your people as "Brothers".

I have also met people who think that the Aztec mass rituals were a hoax invented by the Spaniards to justify colonizing and raping the injuns.

Well, I mean, they're Ess-Jay-Dubyas. They firmly believe that there is no upper limit to the abuse that people will endure at the hands of the Good People, because what the Good People do is always right and good. Why else do you think the same people who can't understand "selling out" the Aztecs to white people also can't understand the connection between "basket of deplorables" and the election results?

Kill all Native Americans.

The Aztecs were almost literally something out of a pulp fantasy novel: a mighty empire of slavers who ritually tortured and sacrificed countless innocents to keep their withered gods alive, so that they could fight off the army of demon skeletons that periodically descend from the stars to consume all life.
