    You are being overly verbose and artless. I get it you think all of history was evil and should be judged through the lenses of the present. Its easy to call people who were very progressive for their time evil and barbaric today but you fail to see its how you will be viewed in a more progressive future.

    Its funny how everyone who knows me personally tells me I am one of the most intelligent people they know but some angry child online thinks I’m dim because I don’t agree with their black and white take on history. The idea that every wrong committed wasn’t balanced out by something positive and progressive is childish in the extreme.

    Keep on moving the goalposts. You think you are the only one who can see things and since that is the case there is no hope for you to see yourself. I’m gonna do my favorite thing on lemmy. I’m gonna block you because there is currently no hope for you. Keep on blaming the past for the present. That way nothing will ever change.

      Even in Columbus’s time he was known as a piece of shit who went too far, yet Americans worship the fucker as one of their own and he was born 600 years ago.

      Keep defending the past, and the present will never have a reason to change.

        I never brought up columbus day that that was the other narrow minded person. What is about you narrow minded types that when someone points out a glaring blind spot in your statements that you dig down with some specific detail and make your whole tired arguments about that.

        So instead of talking about your blindspot we end of up talking about something that has nothing at all to do with my statement.

        Goodbye what ever that shit in your name means.

      Aw my sweet summer child.

      Its easy to call people who were very progressive for their time evil and barbaric today but you fail to see its how you will be viewed in a more progressive future.

      This mf would defend Hitler if he was from the US.

      Go back to reddit where neckbeards guzzle up US propaganda, puke it back up and pass it around. You aren’t fooling anyone with self-aggrandizing bs.
