Anything to facilitate the intentional destruction of you, your families and your peoples history.
Wake up please.


Been up since 5 this morning lol, thank you.
It sucks man- everyone is screaming for “equality”- instead, they are just pushing their beliefs onto others. People should be more concerned with themselves and practice respect towards each other.

Also, so we don’t steer away from the topic- how does replacing a holiday because the country is overrun by alcoholism and gambling justified? Some one posted earlier that it is simply because of the money generated. That person is correct and it’s sad.

Yea you might take the chance or the opportunity of some loser who isn’t included…and then feelings get all hurt.

Let’s just give everyone awards for participation. That’s why no one wants to go and do anything right these days…we have a society of people that pass the buck to the next poor shelp…next thing you know all our services and jobs are outsourced, economy is down the drain and I have to speak to some fuck in India about my problems.

Oh but it must be because of the rich, we should tax them more and more women and trans things should be in positions of power…


Hehe i'm considering making this my new quote, lol ^^

1000 percent- let alone just go out to see on a 50 footer and not hurl their guts overboard after 30 mins out lol.

That man set a goal and achieved it.


Well you know, one shouldn't take achievements away from people. And there has always been war and shady ways of doing things throughout history. But that doesn't mean we should brush that under the carpet and forgive and forget. Nothing justifies abusing power, even if you discover free energy and end world hunger. Because it sets a precedence for later generations doing the same thing.

How do you discover land that a million people live on?
I just discovered cost co.


This is true lol, just because the "civilized world" (whatever that means) got news about it doesn't mean someone "discovered" it... The native indians may have been barbaric, but every single people on earth have had their shady side. It's ridiculous how we humans are being led around in circles by historians and mass media manipulation.



Pride, pride, what is pride? At any rate, pride is stupidity and ignorance. When you feel proud about something, there are fifty thousand others that has done something similar, but better. An accomplishment should not entitle pride. An accomplishment should only be about fulfilling a need, a solution to a practical problem. And that is just normal work ethic.

The only time humanity as a whole should feel proud, is when we all live under one single flag, has vanquished all bad living conditions and live in peace and harmony with ourselves and nature. And we are very far from that yet.

Left and right. It’s a way to divide and control people. We are on the same planet, ie the same boat. Do we have differences? Absolutely. It’s our responsibility to come to common understanding. Instead we are torn apart- it doesn’t benefit us, but benefits great those who profit of our backs.

These morons have confused Columbus with Cortés.

An easy mistake to make. For a moron.

Personally I think they were both awesome in their own right, but whatever, to each their own.

Just wait until these people learn about the various religions... Or the Romans.

Or... really any of history actually, it's never really stopped being brutal.


Cortes is a history all-timer who successfully liberated millions from the yolk of the Aztec terror state. And if he subsequently subjugated them in turn, so what, at least he was a self aware villain. "My companions and I suffer from a disease of the heart, and the only cure is gold."

Columbus was a bum with bad math so petty he had to cheat his own men out of the reward for spotting land first. So terrible a governor he had to be fired by Spain for incompetence and wanton cruelty. Our holidays deserve better.

Thank you brother- it’s a day of huge pride…I’m not Italian, I’m Russian but I’m proud of Christopher Columbus and how he discovered this country…amazing man.

that’s just racist.

And to whatever argument you might have about Columbus being a bad guy- it’s all alleged. There is 0 proof.

Colin on the other hand, commit treason on national television during day time. We have it on video. Kids are watching.

And no being an activist isn’t wrong, just don’t do it on your paid hours time- go be an activist Monday thru Saturday. Case closed


if that's treason, then so is that bastardized thin blue line flag. Our flag looks better in red, white, and blue anyways.

No facking way…this is why this country is going to shit…because it’s so hard to make this dumb pointless game on Saturday….

Next they will move to get rid of Veterans Day for LGBQT whatever the fuck appreciation day, you watch.


Columbus wasn't the forefather of any country/nation. Also, Columbus day is celebrated in many countries. Columbus never even set foot on soil that is now known as the USA.

edit: keep on snowflaking :P
