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


I agree. Our one and only flag is the red white and blue one.

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


Don’t know what you are saying about the snow flaking, never said he was the forefather of anything. Thanks for your input

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! Learned something new today. I’ve never read up on Cortez.

Why the outrage at minuscule possibility of losing Columbus Day? It’s a holiday about a guy that had nothing to do with this country. The NFL is the epitome of capitalism and more American as well.

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


the Kaepernick footage is fake, it was CGI created by the deep-state right wing media. 0 proof

its a joyous occasion- part of history. There was a columbus day parade every year in NYC before covid hit. Commemorates a great explorer. The NFL is the NFL. I haven't watched it in the longest time, its not even that great of a game to begin with. But its involvement with politics and all the whining that goes around the league has made it pretty much unbearable to watch/follow- in my opinion. If you like it, good for you. Does it generate tons of money? I'm 1000% sure it does. Do I think it could have generated more money if it stayed out of politics? I certainly think so.

right right- i unfortunately saw it live on TV. Once again- nothing wrong with protesting, expressing yourself, etc. But on your own time, not during your working hours.
