It doesn’t matter what he said. What matters is what actually happened.
From Columbus diary:

While I was in the boat, I captured a very beautiful Carib woman, whom the said Lord Admiral gave to me. When I had taken her to my cabin she was naked—as was their custom. I was filled with a desire to take my pleasure with her and attempted to satisfy my desire. She was unwilling, and so treated me with her nails that I wished I had never begun. But—to cut a long story short—I then took a piece of rope and whipped her soundly, and she let forth such incredible screams that you would not have believed your ears. Eventually we came to such terms, I assure you, that you would have thought that she had been brought up in a school for whores.

That has nothing to do with what I said. You're cancelled.

I’ll be calling you out every time you post lies like this.

He did point out that what the Spanish were doing to the Indes was horrible.

He was also the guy who proposed bringing over African slaves, and we all see how well that worked out.

To be fair, Smallpox and Syphilis did most of the heavy lifting.

To be accurate, it is believed that Syphilis originated in the Americas, and Columbus and his crew brought it to Europe. Where it killed over 5 million people.

Virgin field epidemics work both ways.

Are all black people bad just because a group of them terrorize and kill daily in Chicago? Or are you going to single out individuals from Spain in early America? I think you choose to label them all the same.

Do you always run from a subject?

That's called a comparison on a subject to help you understand because it's hard from the left to see rational, so I made it easy for you.

I think you are babbling, buddy.

What the Spanish did in the New World was a humanitarian disaster of epic proportions.
