Do people hate columbus now? Just asking
At least most if not all people I know don't really know much about him except for the thing about him discovering america. So ig most people are ignorant or don't care.
yes
he pulled up to the bahamas and wiped out the indigenous population of like 3mil within a decade, because he kept sending them into gold mines with no util (how tf are you inting as a slave owner)
he even intentionally crashed the santa maria on haiti to force some of his guys to stay and make a settlement, while he went back to spain to dickride some more and get more boats.
you have to be a pretty shitty guy to manage to get your Day renamed to Indigenous Peoples' Day in a country like the us
only because columbus hit the islands instead of mainland
conquistadors had his stories to work off of, plus way more funding now that the spanish royalty were a little more on board with this stuff
also what is the point of you saying this
Do they actually? Idk how he is viewed in china but most people don't really care about him or don't even know much about him in south Asia region from my experience. Do Chinese people study in detail about him in school or college?
Atleast in china u will normally have atleast heard of his name, and if u have u normally dont like him
People are starting to support H*tler, so being against Columbus is nothing surprising
idk if hating a colonizer is comparable to supporting hitler?
very apples and oranges ngl
Self-explanatory. Could mirror his colonialism to another certain "modern" region.
