Christopher Columbus is a hero.

He sailed the ocean blue on a little wooden ship.
His voyage is the equivalent of a moon mission today. He had no support. Nobody to rescue him. No navigators.
He did not know what he would find.
Non-Euro crybabies are just jealous that their people never did anything so awesome. White people are magic.

WSJ had an article on Columbus a week ago. It said he did NOT mistakenly call the natives 'Indians' thinking he had landed in India. He knew he wasn't in India. He called them a word loosely translated as 'not very advanced people.' It later got turned into 'Indians'.

I support Columbus day because it makes the mentally ill faction of this nation have life threatening levels of high blood pressure and outrage
My favorite new holiday
Christopher Columbus is an American hero! Are you outraged yet!

Fun fact: Columbus could be viewed as one of the earliest figures of diversity to be embraced by the fledgling US. As an Italian sailing under a Spanish flag, Columbus' non-Britishness was useful to a nation seeking to forge its own identity, apart from its expelled colonial master.

He wasn't even there when all the murders happened I don't think. Dude was on good terms with the Indians and sailed back home. His men eventually started raping and killing.

The great Chinese fleet did some impressive exploration.

The moon landing would probably be viewed a bit differently if, once we landed, we found out that people had been living there for thousands of years, so we rounded them up and limited them to a tiny fraction of the moon's surface while taking most of the land and resources for ourselves.
Look, I'm by no means one of those "he who finds it first gets to keep it forever" type people, one doesn't need to be a SJW to acknowledge that Columbus didn't discover a damned thing

I love Columbus and am proud of my 100% European heritage

Christopher Columbus was an idiot who first of all was not the first to "discover" America, wrongly believed he had found India and went to his deathbed still believing this, and also brought disease, starvation and enslavement to the natives.

It doesn't matter if he wasn't first, it matters that his discovery stuck and changed history. The Chinese explorations did not result in permanent settlements. The Viking colony survived for a time, but was eventually abandoned. Columbus is deserving of the praise he gets.

As much as I LOL’ed at this, I think you got it backwards. White people are the suckers that work to pay for Air Jordans. That’s magic.

It's not like Indians had any issue whatsoever with genocide, rape, murder, or just plain general cruelty. That they were noble, peaceful savages is a myth.

Columbus was a Dreamer, before being a Dreamer was cool.
Why does the left hate Dreamers?

Columbus claimed the new land for the Christian king and queen, and, therefore, his legacy needs to be continuously and progressively smeared with newly discovered lies. And little native American children need to be taught that their ancestors were all wise and noble people who lived in harmony wit nature and each other just like little African American children are taught that that their ancestors were all royal princes and princesses.
