    There are much more admirable paisans out there. Guglielmo Marconi. Galileo Galilei. Luigi Mangione. Luciano Pavarotti. Leonardo da Vinci.

    C’mon man.

      Of course, but Columbus was pivotal in the massacre of millions of native people. Of course the Trump team wants a statue of him.

        They got upset because Columbus has been “Cancelled” due to all the awful shit he did. So this is their way to “stick” it to the libs.

        All they do it performative theater. They don’t actually know or care about Columbus, only that by praising him it upsets people with a conscience, so they keep doing it.
