Is there two perspectives or one truth?

[Mark Richard]

This episode goes over 9 points Vox wrote about on how Christopher Columbus was a tyrant among other things. This episode calls out those points as lies, bad interpretations, or propagandizing edited story telling to push an idea from the reality. Strange. Fact checking VOX.

 

[The Duke]

Sir, there is but one truth. No matter humans perception of it, the truth does not change.
Oh, you're on about some TV show where Commies try to denigrate Columbus.
Well, they live in a world that would not be possible without Columbus and left to soft-headed Commies like they are.
I guarantee you they couldn't tell you the directions.
They don't know how to find North or kill a snake or bear.
Use a sextant?
They might marvel at its shiny brass, but no clue as to how to use one.
They're trying to take over a society that real people built because I guess they've pumped their soy asses up enough to where they think they are capable of doing so.
They're not.
Stupid commies are not going to just waltz in and steal a society that real people
built like that. Real people that know when to kill, btw.
Whipping out your phone isn't going to save your life if there's a wildcat around, tards.
No police or government agencies are going to be there for you.
It's you against a wild cat, and you're on your own.
Many Americans have experienced that situation, and if you couldn't survive that, and don't know how to overcome that situation, you ain't takin' over America.

You're speaking truths

The problem is that while there is only one actual truth, these days almost nobody really knows what that is. Politics has invaded damn near everything and what we hear and read have been filtered one way or another by the biases of the information source. Probably it has always been that way and we didn't realize the extent to which we have been led to believe certain things. People make decisions and act on their perspectives that may or may not be all that truthful.
