Anti-Italian Bigotry in Biden's America

[Polishprince]

This is the real reason for the campaign against Columbus Day.


The purpose of Columbus Day is to celebrate the Italian people and their tremendous contributions over the years. It isn't about whether Columbus was perfect or not, no one is.

Other holidays have been set up to celebrate other ethnic groups, Cinco De Mayo for the Latinos, St. Paddy's Day for the Irish, MLK Day for the black people.

Why deny such a tremendous group like the Italians a day on the calendar?

Fact is Columbus brought civilization to savages. The people that hate civilization hate Columbus.

Because it is named after Amerigo Vespucci, an Italian.

Libs hate Columbus also because he was a free thinker. The scientific consensus among libs was that the earth was flat and Columbus was expected to drop off the edge by the lib elite of his day.

But conservatives like Ferdinand and Isabella thought otherwise and commissioned Columbus to take the voyage.

They drew lots after pulling a drunk to create a name.

Vespucci Day sounds fine to me.

"Vespucci claimed to have understood, back in 1501 during his Portuguese expedition, that Brazil was part of a fourth continent unknown to Europeans, which he called the "New World". The claim inspired cartographer Martin Waldseemüller to recognize Vespucci's accomplishments in 1507 by applying the Latinized form "America" for the first time to a map showing the New World. Other cartographers followed suit, and by 1532 the name America was permanently affixed to the newly discovered continents."

Colombus discovered ''The New World'' Which the Continents were a part of. So he does deserve recognition.
I agree that Vaspucie needs more attention than he did in the past.

They were already discovered by the people who lived there before Columbus said he found it.
